The lovely people at Muck Boots have sent me a pair of their new FIELDBLAZER boots for testing and first impressions are they've made some improvements from the older, smellier, pair I've already got. Muck Boots have had Quiet, Warm, and Dry nailed since the first pair they made. Where theses look like an improvement is they've beefed-up the reinforcement for added support around the ankle and protection for your toes, which I thought was pretty much the only way to improve on the concept.
The new soles are a bit better too, horizontal strakes might not look as grippy, but are far better at self-cleaning than most studded patterns.
I paid cash for the last pair and would happily recommend them for woodland stalking, and especially for any kind of hunting where you have to sit in a chilly Highseat/Treestand.
Thanks again guys

A tubby suburban dad watching hunting and adventure shows on TV and wondering could I do that? This is the chronicle of my adventures as I learn to learn to Forage, Hunt and Fish for food that has lived as I would wish to myself - Wild and Free.

Please feel free to leave comments. I really enjoy hearing what readers think. The rules are the same as round my dinner table:
You're welcome to disagree, life would be way too boring if we all agreed with each other and we'd never learn anything.
I like to think that we're all grown up enough to argue every last point, right down to the bone, without bearing a grudge afterwards.
Come on in the waters lovely

No comments on this post about 'Muck Boots'. I'm not surprised. I was left speechless at the thought of anyone appearing in public wearing a pair of them...

ReplyDeleteI left a comment abt the Scotish made Buck Boots. 2/3rds the price and british made ...can't be bad!.
Ah it was 'that' Anon
ReplyDeleteI assumed it was an attempt to gain free advertising. it's pay-to-play on the SBW blog. Freebies for close friends, all trades considered.

Anonymous,
ReplyDeleteYou seem to be missing my point.
I couldn't give a shit whether these boots were being issued free on Croydon High Street. I would not wear anything so pretentious.
Sorry, perhaps my last comment was a bit harsh.
ReplyDeleteI am sure that if these boots come in teensy weeny sizes the kids would love them when they go on their supervised primary school nature rambles.
Hi, Your hunt blog is better, Just i read I like it, Thnks you so much for posting it!

How many Anons do you have? LOL
I don't advertise products. I don't accept products for so called "review" purposes either.
I pay no heed to the reviews. Subjectivity being what it is and all that.
Some would call it a form of commercial prostitution. But I'm not that judgemental. It is what it is.
I would like to apologise for my earlier comment.

SBW: Good for you

SBW: Yeah and advertising doesn't work Yawn

SBW: Once again you've wowed us with your circular logic i.e prostitution = commercial sex, so your stating that the sale of advertising is er.. comercial commercialism?

I bet you would,
We've seen the not-so veiled racism, the tedious claims to expert knowledge, and the antagonism towards other commenters, all of which could perhaps be forgiven if you were in any way witty.
Dude you're all comments no blog AKA All hat and no cattle.

Glad the boots arrived -- must get a set (green) for muddy barns/stables when and if it rains. Which it might not, disturbingly.
ReplyDeleteI've got a new pair of Muck Boots and I love them. I just discovered your blog, very nice. I added a link to it on mine and was wondering if you could do the same for me please? Thank you keep up the good work. Adam DHBB
