I love my Mucks for.cfort, but they are hot!  Ticks, 👹 hate them miserable little things.

Bees can't sting thru them...

I slip them on every time I work bees.  Repels them and all of the juices that come out of the hives.  I use the Edgewaters, all neoprene, no extra insulation.  But still warm.

That was a long time ago.  Just how old are you anyways?

That was late '60's. Paid for my first Farm with Furs and my Paycheck. My wife paid the Bills.

I was running Trap Line and Dogs. Sold to Jack Viers in Fayett, MO. My family started selling to him in 1902.

Sprayed my clothes and got my Boots on. Went outside got started and it started Lightning.

I'm 66, got married first time at 17.

I will not wear tennis shoes in the woods. Fescue seeds, burrs, and other and crap will get inside through the tongue and stick to your socks.. Drives me nuts. Same with sawdust.

I wear Wellington style pull-on leather work boots (basically cowboy boots without the pointy toes and tall heels) 90% of the time. They're waterproof, and with your pant legs over them nothing can get inside. I also do a lot of torching/welding and they are mostly fire/spark proof. For the most part they are not bad in the summer, good socks, really, really help in that regard.

I'm not a fan of laces either, that's another good thing about Wellingtons.

I give up. I thought it was done raining. Stepped out and still raining. So set inside.

Well finally got my head out of my back side. Found if I unlace my Boots I can get them on, just lace them back up.

You know if I had a brain I would be dangerous.

And you're in Homeland Security???  God helps us all....

My Homeland is secured, no help from the government is needed as long as they will stay out of the way.

I was worried about the governor and all the dignitaries he's guarding..😂

Mine is secure.  The neighbor ladies can get unruly on wine Wednesday but that's two days away..😁

Oh, man!  4 pages of boot advice and no one thought to ask if you unlaced your boots before putting them on/off.  LOL!
