Reply to comment by rustyrhinohorn in BIFL Farm Boots that I can beat the hell out of for years to come by Lance2020x

I looked into Muck Boots when I was looking at rubber before (and settled on xtratuf). They seemed to get really mixed reviews. Have you had good success with them?

They are very comfortable and warm, but the glue is very poor quality. Mine seem to start coming apart within 3 months of daily use at the dairy farm.

That's sad to hear! I would mostly be using mine in the summertime so perhaps they wouldn't be the right fit for me if warmth is a key feature

I daily used mine at the dairy farm for at least 1.5 years until they were literally falling apart from all their seams. They were definitely very warm in the summer, but it was workable.

I have, but this was 15 years ago when I still lived on a farm.

I have a pair for hunting. The extra arctic or something. They rock. Super warm, just not flexible.

If I had to go out and buy another set of regular muddy season boots, it would be muck.
