Great boot for the priceI have been buying a pair of these boots ever other year for over 6 years and really like them. They wear great and for the price during the Fall Hunting Sale you can't beat them.

Great boots!I bought these boots in preparation for some mule deer and elk hunts I have later on this year. I wanted something heavy duty, warm, comfy, and waterproof. So far they seem to be really great. They were just a little bit stiff out of the box. I’ve worn them on several 3 and 4 mile hikes since then though, and they have broken in well, they really fit my feet well, and are very comfortable. I haven’t had them in the water very much, but my son who went on a hike with the scouts the other day. He said that he walked through several inches of water with his pair and his feet stayed dry and comfortable. I think these will be a great asset!

Great buy for the moneyI had excellent results with the Trekker II & III boots from BassPro, racking up 450 and 530 miles respectively with much of it being over steep, rough and rocky terrain so I was bummed when they were discontinued. As usual the biggest roadblock finding a good replacement was my wide feet. So I tried on every mid-height boot at the store, from cheap to very expensive and the Cougar II was the ONLY boot that felt comfortable in-the-store.
Knowing from experience that in-the-store comfort and on-the-trail performance may be drastically different, it was with some trepidation that I chose the Cougar II's.
Within a few weeks of my first purchase 4 months ago I was so impressed with the comfort and low amount of tread-wear, I wanted to buy another pair before they are discontinued as well. (which happens all too often)
Unfortunately my size was out-of-stock and wouldn't be available until July. So while I waited to re-order, I hiked almost every day to make sure they would be worth buying another pair. The boots performed so well in comfort and performance that I bought the second pair the moment they were in stock again. While the next pair was slightly different, I'm sure they will do well for me.
At the moment, over 360 miles in 77 hikes the tread is only about half-worn so I expect to easily reach 500 miles... a great value for the money!
CON:As good overall as I feel the Cougar II's are, in fairness I should mention the only issue:
Due to the extremely rough terrain, bulling through thick brush and climbing peaks with sharp rocks, at just over 200 miles the front of the sole of one boot started to separate.
So I purchased a well-known brand of shoe glue, thoroughly cleaned the area and laid a seam of glue in the opening. I did the same thing on the other boot as a preventive and now some 150 miles later there has been no further separation.
Last note: I bought boots a size larger so I could use a well-known brand of full-length orthotic insert IN ADDITION to the original insoles, and I can easily hike 10-15 miles without any foot-fatigue.

Sole wears out quicklyI purchased these boots on sale for $48.12 including sales tax on March 14, 2018. I had great expectation since the boots are relatively light, flexible, and were of the right height for my needs. However I am very disappointed since the sole is worn out in less than two months of use.
I have thought of taking them to the store to find out if my experience is not normal and if not normal request a replacement. In my opinion the sole should not wear out in less than two months of use.

Bought for my UncleI bought these boots for my Uncle for Christmas and although its been just a few weeks, he's hunted in them several times and has been very happy with how lightweight they are and (for the most part) stay resistant to the weather. He has bought other brands for a much higher price with similar performance. He said he will continue to buy these boots in the future.

Not Really Water ProofI have worn these boots a half dozen times since receiving them in September 2016. Last Saturday I had the opportunity to walk through very wet grass following a rain storm and within one minute, my feet were soaking wet........ 15 minutes later, they were cold. Water Resistant perhaps, but definitely NOT WATER PROOF!

Comfortable but...These are fairly comfortable boots but after wearing them for a week of turkey hunting in Kansas, I learned that they are more like "water resistant" than "water proof". After sloshing through swampy areas, my feet were wet. They held up for much of the morning but by mid-morning, the water was coming in to the boots. But for the price they are not Gore-Tex so what can you expect??
Thank you for choosing Bass Pro Shops.These boots have not been tested and are not rated as being non-slip.

How do the sizes compare to other brand boot sizes or tennis shoes, specifically if I wear a size 9D in Ariat square steel-toe work boots and size 10 Nikes.
Asked by: Reform41StdSz
They should be true to size, but without us having any customer reviews on it hard to for sure if they run big or not.
You can call your local BPS Retail store and see if the know, or if they have them in stock you could always go there in person and try them on.
You can always call us and speak to our Customer Service and they can see which store has it in stock so you could speak with the store directly and see if they could compare it with other brands, ect.
