Chippewa Boots

Broken

Just wearing them in the home to test out the fit, the harness buckle broke. Very cheap made buckle. The rest of the boot seemed very nice, but I was only able to wear the all of about 5 minutes on

Great boot

These are extremely comfortable and you can wade fish in them; NO LEAKS !!!! The comfort will shock you first time you pull them on. No break in needed. These are the real deal!!! You will not regret buying them.

Made in China (not made nor assembled in USA); Brome Style #25110

My first pair of Snake boots were made in USA; this pair was made in China. The leather liner is also gone, replaced with a type of fabric liner. While I've worn Chippewa snake boots for over 15 years...and I'd like a pair of waterproof Chippewa boots...I think these are going to be returned. I get the offshore manufacturing and how it helps reduce costs. But, I'd rather pay more for made in USA and the leather liner I so like. Also, the 11.5 D in the made in China boot runs just a little larger than prior Chippewa snake boots...not enough to go down a size, but noticeable on the fit. I also compared soles of the made in China boot to my other USA boots, and the Chinese sole is about 1/4" longer. Boot lasts can change over time so I'm not knocking this point too much. But, loss of points for China origin and the fabric line vs leather. I'm bummer, and should have paid attention that this is one of the few not made in USA boots (e.g. the handcrafted in USA logo was not on the boots web page like other boots)

Very comfortable. Second pair, highly recommend.

Great boots. I had a pair and them bought the waterproof pair. Excellent choice.

leaked after 1 1/2 years

I loved these boots once they got broken in, but they started leaking after 1 and 1/2 years with minimal use. Warranty is only good for one year. Its a good boot but don't expect the waterproofing to hold up.....

Chippewa boots

I am a returning customer when it comes to the Chippewa boots. I purchased a pair of regular snakeproof almost 5 years ago, I wear these boots everyday for work in brushy snake areas in south Texas. They are great for hunting and around fishing ponds, rivers and lakes. I recently purchased my second pair of Chippwa waterproof snake boots and they're very durable and comfortable. I like the flat heal when I'm standing or walking all day. The flat sole gives you more traction when climbing steep grades. I highly recommend Chippwa boots, you never know they might pay for themselves after the first snake bite happens.

great fit

Just bought them. Very comfortable, snug fit around foot and calf. Just enough room to slip boot on and off and walk and not flop. Might be too tight fit for big calves. I also was looking for waterproof boots. Wish they made these in all leather that were waterproof. Also agree on wishing they had a more aggressive tread but like that these can be re-soled.

Best boot ever!

The only boot to last me more than a year. Three years and still going. I've had them all rocky,lacrosse,Irish setter,cabelas,red head and so on. Nothing compares!

Five Stars, minus one

Five stars because I love these boots. They just get more and more comfortable with use. I should minus one though, because I do not like the Gumlite geriatric walking soles. I had NuShoe replace them with Vibram Montagna 132 classic lug soles, and now they're perfect. I would pay smartly for a pair of these in leather overall. It would be nice if Chippewa hadn't been absorbed into corporate mediocrity and could offer more variety and custom building. *sigh* Chippewa will always be my favorite boot though, no matter what. (I have 14)
