[QUOTE="ponderosa11, post: 2497664, member: 116288"] Hm well I’m the outlier here but I don’t prefer heavy boots for anything except mountaineering. A boot shouldn’t provide you with stability. Stability should come from the muscles in your feet and legs. For hiking and hunting I prefer a light cheap hiker like Merrell Moabs or something similar, or even plain old tennis shoes. That being said, i have to wear boots often for work and I have had good luck with Lowa boots along with my coworkers. The Baffin and Tibet boots are good quality heavy leather boots. Longevity has been good for us across the board except for with the Renegade model and other lighter/cheaper options. [/QUOTE]
