Wolverine® 12 Point Insulated Waterproof Hunting Boots for Men.

Wolverine Boot evaluation:
HuntingLife Pro Staffer Don Rickards

I’m a boot freak, yep! Now the world knows it. I’m not hiding it any more.

One of the benefits of being a Pro Staffer with The HuntingLife.com is we get to test things from time to time. There has been a “few dump them in the trash can and don’t waste your money on” things, but mostly there are good things. And once in a while there comes along a great thing. And that Great thing this time was a pair of Wolverine Boots.

As I said I am a boot freak so it’s going to have to do and feel really good to retire the few “Ol Betsey Boots” I have.

The Wolverines arrived by UPS and when I opened them up the love affair started. Camo all around, and when I turned them over I was even more excited. No big mud clumber cleats. Nice rounded honey comb looking sole. We all know how much mud and thingems get in the soles of our boots getting in and out of out trucks or worse yet, walk in the house for a second because you forgot something.

Nope, we’re looking good so far… I’m smiling. But I’ve been tricked before by those pretty first impressions. I’m not even going to ask her her name or buy her a drink. I’m just going to ask her to dance.

I sat down, she was easy to unlace. Slipped my foot in and wiggled my toes, so far so good. I laced them back up and stood up. I almost said the “L’ word. But I’ve been there before. So I held off, walked around a bit with a grin on my face and said to them “ok let’s see how you do outside”.

We did our outside chores and even went on a deer stand scouting trip. By now I was in the middle of the woods talking to my new loves. Thank God no one was around.

We finished our chores and playing and now would be the final test. Could I go in and out of the house without leaving a trace?

We have a heavy door mat and with just the 2 or 3 manly do as your told wipes I went in, got something and returned to the garage. No one would know… no clumps of dirt no wet leaves, nothing.

I know from past experiences in going places like Africa and such you MUST have a great pair of broke-in boots for your trips or the whole trip could be ruined. I wore them the next day and put them away for my hunting trip over a month away. That’s how sure I was of my LOVES named “New Betsy’s”.

When we arrived at our camp in Canada I wore them almost every day except the few days we were warned that we were to go into deep marsh and we would need our knee boots.

So for walking, for sitting in the blind or wet grasses and mud, these Boots are for you…

I’m keeping them, and using them too…You’ll love them as much as I do.
