Its been pretty wet these past few weeks and anytime I step into the mud pit which is our backyard I have found myself wearing these boots. They are known at the Maine Hunting Shoes, duck boots, or Bean boots, whatever you call them they are rugged and do a damn good job of keeping your feet dry. Here are some images pulled from the L.L. Bean Guide to the Outdoors.


Variations on a theme.

These have been getting so much attention lately, and rightfully so…as long as you don’t live in a pseudo-desert. I do admit I wish I had a good excuse for them in so cal.
