trouble finding, identifying steel shanked boots

[fishercat]

i wouldn't worry too much.

if you don't wear them,Bailey's should swap them out.they are great that way.just don't buy their aftermarket Husky parts.

have to be even better since Hoffmans added there sole and shank to it.I was thinking of getting these this summer.

I like the line, Yeah, I think I will call them. My old boots were scrapped in the oil spill and I have been looking around.

So you think that the Hoffmans are so much better that I should send the Dawg's back? Not questioning your opinion at all, just trying to get an idea as to how much better they are.

Hey Dan, my brother and Chaz really like the Danner Quarries they bought. I guess they have a fiberglass shank. They are light and they say they have plenty of support for spikes, waterproof and nice in the cold too. It's a thought. $189 or something.

pure garbage! they are the only thing with gore-tex i ever got wet feet in.they are also Danner's low end.they are made in China.i wore them for a year.ankles were loaded with gaff scars.gotta love Cabelas,they took them back after a year and gave me my $200 back,no questions asked!that is service!

Nails,you sure they didn't get the Danner Rainforest?

 

[fishercat]

Ahh, Cabelas. Maybe I will take a ride out and see what they have. Nails, get those boots off your bro before he starts talking Chinese
I really don't like to get something I have never tried from mailorder, its bad for everybody if it don't work, fit or get here.

I am on my second pair of Haix Protector Pros and love em. This time around I bought a second pair of low ankle boots so I dont wear out the soles quite so fast. The Hoffmans looked very similar and seemed to have most if not all of the same features.

Sent my leading hand to climbing school a while back and bought him a pair after day 2. He said his confidence in spurs went thru the roof after putting on the Haix boots with steel shanks. Leave the crap on the ground where it belongs. Your feet will thank you.
