I have Danners, Chippewas for work, and sometimes wear Turtleskin chaps when quail hunting...depends on the location and season in S. TX, but Mr. Coontail ain't gettin' me.

I have the TurtleSkin gaiters and wear them in the hill country. A lot more comfortable than boots (which I have). Never been bitten so can't verify they work.

I'm a land surveyor in East Texas. I wear snake boots all day long for 8 months a year. I've tried them all. I haven't found a pair yet that last a full year, so I generally buy the cheap Rocky's. They are ok for comfort. If I was gonna just have a pair for part time, it would be these:

Men's Twisted X 17" Waterproof Snake Boots | Work Boots Superstore | WorkBoots.com
The Men's Waterproof 17" Pull-On Viperguard Snake Boot is handcrafted with premium full-grain leathers and features Twisted X Viperguard material that provides extra protection against snake bites. This boot also has a breathable waterproof lining and air-mesh lined shaft, to keep your feet dry...
Those are good unless you have big calves. I have a pair and they are comfortable, I just can't zip them up. Even with them unzipped the tops are tight around my legs.
