    Crispi nevada vs Valdres

    From what I have seen on this forum, they are built on different lasts. I believe the Nevadas are wider. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    Have you checked the Danner 453? I believe they use the same last. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

    ? for those with slightly narrow low volume feet

    Looking for new boots for late fall/ winter with insulation. My foot is slightly narrow with low arches. Currently, I wear Scarpa Kailash and Kenetrek Mtn Extreme (narrow width). The Kenetrek fit great but I don't need something as stiff. I prefer an 8-10" high boot. I have considered Danner...

    Help me find a boot.

    I width and volume of your foot makes a huge difference on how a boot works. If the laces can't keep your foot locked in place, your heel will slip. A thicker insole might be a help. Same with matching the heel cup of the boot. A loose heel cup will allow heel lift. Manufacturers have different...

    Fitness equipment

    COJoe, I will be traveling across most of Lancaster tomorrow. Stocking pheasants at Muddy Run. My thought is that my cardio is lacking especially this time of year. I sit in a piece of equipment mulching invasives or run chainsaws and spray herbicide, or drive a truck around stocking pheasants...

    White's boots

    White's had a good reputation when they were independently owned but have been bought up by the same company that owns Danner and LaCrosse. The Danner side has been pushing many fashionable shoes but still makes most of the USA made Boots that made a name for the company. Many of their...

    Fitness equipment

    To be honest, I can't see myself going to the gym after work. I work in habitat management running equipment, chainsaws, etc so I am usually grimy, gritty smelling like diesel fuel so I would want to shower before going to a public gym. The advantage of a home piece of equipment is I think I...

    Fitness equipment

    As my wife and I are both 52 and now starting to really feel the effects of aging, I am considering purchasing a piece of fitness equipment. Looking on local marketplace, I see quite a few elliptical machines and Bowflex Max Trainers. My needs aren't to train for a marathon but to lose some...

    Swapping bullets

    My dimwitted coworker bought 2 boxes of Aguila 308 win 150 gr fmjbt at an auction. He thought he got a good deal until I told that he can't hunt with fmj. Doesn't meet sstate requirements. So now he wants me to pull the fmj bullet and swap them with 150 gr Speer round nose. He will provide the...

    308 Win with 130 grain TTSX

    I keep contemplating shifting to the 130 ttsx in my wife's 308. I used up the last of the 150 gr GMx bullets that she has used for 10 years so I need to either work up with 150 cx or something else. The slightly lighter bullet plus extra velocity wouldn't hurt where she hunts. Longest shot is...

    Toe wear hole

    Maybe Gore-tex socks. It would probably be very difficult to patch the membrane. Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk
