    I'm looking to invest in some good hunting/ snow shoveling boots what would be a good/decent boot to get looking to spend around 100.00 to 150.00...I want a good boot that will keep my feet warm as I can be outside shoveling snow for 6 to 7 hours each time it snows

    I swear by Muck boots, have a few pairs and have never been disappointed. Just purchased the Arctic Pros this year and they are great.

    What is the temps you will be in. I have 800gr Irish Setter boots and when actually working or being active, my feet will sweat in them unless it is in the Negatives. For hunting when I am going to be sitting, I just add the layer of Wool socks and I am pretty much set until it is also below zero.

    Overly warm boots, will result in colder feet if they make your feet sweat.

    I purchased a pair of Rocky Sport Utility Boots from ****'s Sporting goods about 3 weeks ago. They are 1000 gram insulation rating lace up tight, very comfortable to walk in and waterproof. Had them out on a few sits and they performed well so far.

    IF you plan on walking/ working a lot in them they may actually be a little too warm. These are meant for sitting in the cold.

    They were 99 bucks...

    LaCrosse makes some nice boots that's for sure. 179 on those BTW. Is the toe are insulated enough for 6 hours of sub zero?

    Damn looks like I missed it too. Got the regular ones I wear until it gets cold. Wanted to grab those

    I've got a pair of Red Wings I've beat to hell. Still waterproof after 20 years with no maintenance. Tad more than budget but probably worth it
