I got mine from Cabelas. THe perfekt hunter model. Been wearing them hunting and hiking and got nothing but good to say about them. Would buy them again if i had to
I drove down to the Cabela's store in Lacey WA when they opened up and got them there. I was a little sceptical about buying online. That store is pretty awesome!

+1 for the service at AJ Brooks. Got mine there. If I had gone online I would've bought it one size too large. Those fitters know what they're talking about

I went and tried on some Meindles at AJBrooks, I didn't buy but if I did I would definitely pay the extra and get them in person. The ones I tried on fit my feet as comfortably as a pair of undersized ski boots. They said they could stretch them into a perfect fit if I needed, which I would absolutely have needed to make the brake in period not completely suck.

AJ Brooks definitely. I blew a seam in my first pair and they had them fixed, no charge.

Fisher's is about $50 cheaper too! GunnerOriginally Posted by dunbartr

AJ Brooks for me as well. Just bought a pair from them and they really took the time to fit me properly. I went out last weekend, hiked all day Sat & Sun and my feet felt great the whole time.
As for the model of boot, I went with the Island Pro. They are fairly stiff and have great support, but are still comfortable for long walks on any terrain. Some of the more serious mountianeering styles are so stiff they feel like ski boots. Seems like they would be more than you need for most hunts. The Island Pro's seem like they have some insulation, but not a ton. My feet were warm all weekend though.

I was going to post the same thing. Only downfall with hubs, is they may have to order your size... Either way, its a wait.
