I just ordered a pair of Lacrosse 18'' Grange Rubber uninsulated boots for this spring. I had a pair of Lacrosse boots that were insulated once before, and I like them, but Ive never had a pair of boots that are uninsulated before. Do any of you guys have a pair and how do you like them? Are they heavy?
You will love them. But your feet will sweat!
I bought some lightweight boot socks and some 17'' liner socks to go with them. I wondered about the breathability of them. Gotta be better than lugging around the 1200 gram boots like last season.
Good turkey hunting boot.
I put a lot of miles on my Grange boots from work and hunting. I also wear snake boots for work and hunting when snakes are an issue and the grange when I'm not so worried because the snake boots leak like crazy. Anyways, sometimes I wonder why I even bother with the Grange because my feet sweat so bad my socks are soaking wet when I take them off.
Lacrosse Grange is a good turkey hunting boot but they do not last like they used to. The 1st pair of grange boots I owned lasted 7 years, the last 2 pairs I have bought started to crack after 1 year. I put alot of miles between deer and turkey hunting in these boots. If you do get a pair do not let them fold over, that's where the cracks occur. I have a pair of light weight muck boots I will be trying out this spring.
So is there something that can be put on the boot to keep them from cracking?

Keep them on a boot hanger or something that keeps them from folding or making a crease.
Love them! I grab them before my danner pronghorns allmost every time
I thought they were the only hunting boot made for a long time. Love them.
Very Good Boots, not very heavy, also use them Quail Hunting!!
I just got a pair of LaCrosse Alpha Lites. (uninsulated)
Awesome boot! And great customer service!
Awesome boots.
Walked a lot of miles in em. Killed a lot of birds and bucks in em.
Hell, I've got one pair just for hunting and another pair for scouting/hanging stands/any other outdoor activities

That's actually a great idea! I think I'll do the same.

The older Lacrosse boots were made in the USA. My first pair lasted 6 or 7 years ,the next pair only lasted 3 yrs. they were made in China. They're still the turkey boot for my money.
My local Sports Authority had them on clearance for $29 per pair. I got some and love em. Old School to the max.
