Bozeman Tall Boots

My husband's first pair of similar Bogs lasted 8 years. He wears them daily on our Maine land - year round. We fell trees, walk to the mailbox, repair things around the house and all the things with these boots. So pleased!!

Bogs makes the best serious working boot out there. Top quality as well as stylish!

Great pair of boots!

Sort of heavy, grips the back of your heel, so no sliding in the boot. We like the handles for pulling the boots on and these have a little kickstand on the back to help kick the boots off.

So these boots are everything I need on a daily basis. I walk my dog in fields and woods off-trail, and so these are comfortable and keep my feet dry when it's wet, warm when it's cold, and safe from ticks when the grass is tall. My one qualm is that I'm on my third pair as I can't get them to last longer than 2 years. Each time the boot cracks in the same spot, under the ball of my foot. Unfortunately it just so happened to always occur on the left boot, so I have a bunch of spare right boots. If they could address this weak point for me, I'd be thrilled.

The first time I put these on I was concerned about the feel of the bumps near the achilles area but after the second day, they just felt "normal". They are roomy, yet the boot "walks with me" instead of stepping out of them like so many other looser boots do. Stepping into them often needs no hands and the handles are very helpful when wearing thicker socks or heavy pants. They keep my feet nice and warm and dry from the elements, and also seem to wick or breathe nicely allowing moisture to escape (have only done light work in them so far). Thanks Bogs!

Worth the extra money I spent on these.

Superior feel in muddy conditions: Worth the extra money I spent on these.

Love these boots! I love out on the Mendocino Coast and I take these boots into the forest to do my foraging. Love me some Bozemans!

So I'm on my third pair of bozeman talls. Love 'em, they're comfortable, warm, definitely waterproof (I ford shallow streams pretty regularly), and easy to take on/off. My only point of contention with them is that the sole of the boot gets a crack in it after about two years, hence being on my third pair. It normally shows up around where the ball of your foot would be. Once this crack has started, the boot is no longer waterproof, there's no way to seal/repair it. I'm not so much upset that the boots don't last longer, but rather that it's always the same spot that wears down and cracks first.
