russell boots
I went to russell zeypher's two years ago, zip back slip ons, would never go back to anything else for dry weather boots. Hookless front makes all the difference for me. For wet or snow I use Danner sharptails, same style, almost as light, no breakin required on either. Just say that I have tried them all, Browning, Rocky, Irish Setter, never new what comfort was till I found these two. Only downside is little ankle support on the Russell's, but worth the tradeoff for me.
