Looking for a pair of well made hip boots or possibly just chaps. Please share your experience.

Stone Creek! They're an exact replica of Wick's, and wayyy better than Dan's, IMO.

Just contacted JC Conner and they confirmed they no longer make them. Anybody have a used pair they are no longer using?

I have the Dan's chaps I wear for bird hunting
I like them

Filson and Dans. Got a pair of each. Filsons come with a lifetime warranty and are a little lighter. I wear them thermal hunting as well. Both are great when quail hunting.

Well into adulthood I set and checked traps in 5 buckle over shoes and leather chinks (hay chaps for Canadian children). We now have much better boots but my chinks still get use. There are few thinks work quite as well as broke in leather
