Boots for forestry

[steve collins]

What boots are lasting the longest these days as seem to only get around 9 months out of a pair?

Haix trekker mountain are what I wear for rhody bashing, fencing and forestry work. I think I'm coming up to two years out of this pair now. Not 100% waterproof anymore but they're still solid.
Haix are THE brand in my opinion.
Cheers

I bought a pair of Haix Tibet Forest last year and they have been brilliant , despite the fact I’ve been wearing Woodwalkers and Airstreams for years .

I have a pair of Origon not sure what particular model but they have lasted me 4 years now. The stitches have just started to separate so there on their last legs.

So I'm on here looking for recommendations too

you wear your chainsaw boots to do fencing?  think you should buy a normal safety boot for that then your chainsaw boots might last a bit longer

Yeah thanks,but two years out of a pair of boots that get hammered every day is pretty good going.
I should have said forestry and agriculture fencing so we need to wear chainsaw ppe to clear the fence line, etc.
Cheers.
