I have a set of Lacrosse from Bass Pro. Brother got struck; but no venom a couple of years ago. I figure that $150 boots will beat the hospital bill and pain for a bite. Only word of advise is to try them on with the socks you will be wearing..
I have had a pair of Rocky's for 20 years now. First 10 years I hunted hard probably 25 to 35 days each year plus scouting trips. 2nd ten years not near as hard but they are still in great shape.
