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.

Boots aren’t waterproofBought these in March to spring turkey hunt and you can forget going anywhere damp, if you step in a creek or swampy area you might as well be barefoot. Tighten up Irish Setter and fix this problem

didn't last 50 milesBought these boots about 6 months ago. Worm them on a few hikes this summer to break them in for the fall hunting season. Wore the boots on 3 hunts. Twice at game farm and once in the grouse woods. Last Saturday the grass was very wet from condensation and my feet were soaked through the boot after an hour. At the end of the morning after took them off I notice a large rip near the toe. Not very impressed, wouldn't buy again. Too bad since they are so light weight. Will be contacting Customer Service to see what they can do for me.

This shoe is great for Archery season in the PNW (Rain).I bought this boot four years ago and use them specifically for archery in the Pacific North West where it rains abundantly. Unlike a lot of these reviews I have never experienced wet feet in these boots nor have I experienced the tread wearing down too soon, and I cover many miles according to my GPS. Like all other materials you should probably have them cleaned and scotch guarded yearly. Another intuitive thought would be that anyone who spends any amount of time in the snow would automatically know that these are not snow boots, nor are they prescribed as a submergible boot. I am actually on this site at this moment ordering another pair of these boots without the camo pattern for hiking trails in the PNW.

The Best Hunting Boot PeriodI dont get why a lot of people are having problems with this boot. I picked this boot up on a whim after my old hunting boots ripped. It has since been two years and I have logged well over 200 miles with them already. Just last month I put in 40 miles in one weekend in utah. Ive taken this boot through sharp shale sliding downhills quail and chukar hunting, taken them duck hunting and kept my feet warm, miles and miles of up and down hills deer hunting. Ive gone knee deep into water with ankle gaiters on and they dried out without taking them off in minutes. Ive submerged them up to the ankle in water and my feet stayed dry. They are ridiculously light. I used them for work breaking wooden pallets with nails with these boots. Ive put them through the ringer and back. I will probably be buying another pair before next season because I have already worn through half of the tread on this boot. Which is completely understandable as I have gone through a brand new pair of Itaska boots in one weekend of quail hunting. I highly recommend.

Lasted less than 100kmUnbelievably unimpressed with these. The sole on one boot has nearly completely worn away in under 100km. I understand these are cheaper boots compared to some out there, but I wore these 6-7 times on hunting trips and now I have to throw them away.
As good as these will seem initially, do not buy them.

Not badLike a few others have said. The soles are soft and wear out quickly. The break in time is very short and the boots are comfortable. After one elk season and antelope hunt the soles are very worn. (That does include scouting). I will have to buy another pair of boots for this next hunting season. I usually get three seasons out of my boots. I will look for a little stiffer sole
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.
