Title: boots
Post by: maggieb on April 09, 2011, 10:06:37 PM
I'm looking for some new boots like Catskills, though not as pricey. Any ideas?

And quality shoes are worth the investment. Had our catskills for over ten years had them resoled once and they're still in great shape.

I have a pair of Sandlars that I love!  Good boots are so worth the investment.

Buffalo and Bullhide Moccasins will last a lifetime if taken care of.  The only thing you might need are new soles or laces when they wear out.  Catskills does have beautiful moccasins but you do pay an extremely high price for them if you go that route.  Worth checking out other vendors.

I have Catskill and SodHoppers.  Wear them both every fest run.  The SodHoppers were a bit less expensive.

Second the Sodhoppers. Just a wee bit less than Catskills.

This looks like a good deal though: www.olderealmmocc.com.
