Don't last!I have bought several pairs of these boots and for 4 pairs that were purchased, all 4 pairs were holes right where the toe bends.
I need another pair but not going to buy the same kind and the same thing will happen.
So there's definitely a flaw in how these are made.
It's to bad as they are comfortable

Comfortable bootsGood boots. This is my second pair. First pair lasted 4 years. I wear them at least 5 days a week from the first of September until the middle of March. The uppers cracked on the sides from bending at the toe. The soles still had decent tread. They are very comfortable, virtually no break in required. I wear a size 13 wide width. That is what I ordered and they fit perfectly.

Never got to test durabilityThese are not waterproof. I wore these boots twice. The first time was in bone dry weather in the middle of summer while running the dogs after chukars, the lightweight was apparent and appreciated. The second time was for pheasants in fall weather, the morning dew on the grass and brush we busted through was enough to get my feet absolutely soaked withing the first hour of an all day hunt. It was a miserable experience. What an absolute disappointment, these boots are useless to me.

Awesome in the beginningI purchased a pair of these boots 2 years ago and loved them the first year. I primarily wear them to hunt in the fall. I walked many miles on 2 Elk hunts that first year and absolutly loved them. Then I started to notice the exterior on the rigth boot (by my big toe) start to fray and a hard bump developed in the insole under my big toe on the same boot. It's now to the point that I can no longer tolerate the bump in the insole and have put them on the shelf. I am very disappointed in the short life these boots had. The soles are still in great shape and it saddens me not to be able to wear them anymore. I only rated them so low because the breakdown so quickly.

Not a typical irish setter boot experience1 trip to North Dakota upland hunting and these boots were shot, I’d get wet feet everyday. Terrible traction on cold uneven surfaces. Comfortable not durable, I’ll be going back to Havocs or possibly try a pair of Wingshooters

Vaportrek Uninsulated BootsNow living and hunting in Western ND, I decided to upgrade to a new boot for early season bowhunting and pheasant hunting. They had to be light, tough enough to hold up to rocks & cactus, have great support, and be waterproof. I found the answer with the Irish Setter Uninsulated Vapor Trek. They are incredibly light weight, easily the lightest 8" hunting boot I've ever used. They do run small, I normally wear 10.5D and had to get 11 Wide for a comfortable fit with medium weight socks. The soles are grippy but seem fairly soft, only time will tell how they hold up to a few seasons of Badlands bowhunting and 8 mile plus days of pheasant hunting. All in all I'm extremely happy with them and would recommend them to anyone looking for an early season boot.

Good for short time.Luckily I live in a pretty dry state. Since so many have complained of the lack of waterproofing. I haven't had that problem myself. I love the light weight of the boots. I can wear them all day and I have no leg fatigue. My feet also won't hurt. Now here is the problem. The soles are slicks within 6 months if you wear them on almost a daily basis. Maybe if I were to mostly walk in grass they would last longer. Unfortunately I mostly walk on hard surfaces. In the past I have had Irish Setters that easily lasted 2 years of wear on 6 days a week use. Now I hesitate to purchase another pair. They are high priced for a boot I only get 6 months out of.

Great and comfortableSo pleased with these boots. These are the most comfortable boots I've bought in a long time. Served as an infantryman in the army so I'm definitely a boot guy. These give me support and comfort my aching feet. I wear them every day and will buy a new pair as soon as they're through. They have held up to not leaking water as far as I've tested, even with some exterior damage that came on a little early into the purchase. Overall a solid boot, love them.
Iv'e been trying to get a pair of the Irish Setter VaprTrek Waterproof Hunting Boot for years now, i can find them, but just not in the width size i need. i need at least a 4E. is it possible that i can get that size even if i have to special order. t.y.
Asked by: Ken Hillman
Thank you for your inquiry! According to Irish Setter's website, these do not come in a 4E size. You may try contacting them directly at 1-888-738-8370 to see if this can be special ordered as we do not do any special orders through the catalog/internet area.
