How do these compare to MuckBoots?

Don't know about muck boots. We both love the sloggers. They wouldn't be good for someone with wide feet. My husband has narrow feet, he loves them. I have med width. I ordered one size up. I like them. They are great for the weather.

My husband has MuckBoots also, the ankle high and mid height. The Sloggers are great for summer, good treads, comfortable but low cut and no insulation. MuckBoots so far are his winter choice, also good and comfortable. Sloggers look good enough to pass as shoes somewhere other than the barn, a plus if you have a complicated and busy life. MuckBoots are definitely good for work, cold, snow etc., and look fine in the barn but leave them at the door.

Sloggers are also waterproof - the sole is much better, I had a pair of muck boots and the tread wore out in a year so they became very slippery to walk in especially on a slope - Sloggers are 1/2 the price and I find that I like them much better than the muck boot product - Hope this helps you make your decision

Haven't tried Muck Boots but I can tell you that these are not heavy in weight and they do have an orthotic feel to them inside. The price on these is better than MuckBoots from what I have investigated. Also if you go on sloggers website they tell you if your boots are damaged, if you send them back that they will remold you a new pair for free. Check them out. Hope this helps.

I don't know about Muck Boots, but will say my husband and I love our Sloggers! Hubby has foot problems and has trouble finding comfortable shoes. I bought a pair of these for Christmas and he really likes them. They are light weight with a good arch support. I love that they are made in the USA and do NOT have that weird smell that China stuff has! I ordered a size 12, which is his shoe size and it's a good fit. I wear a 6 1/2 and ordered a size 7. They fit well too (I did not need the half size thing they sell).

I have not used muckboots, but I believe they are boots that could be used for outside work conditions such as cleaning out a barn, in muddy situations, or deep snow. I believe they are sturdy. The sluggers are like easy to put on waterproof slippers, ideal for running out to the mailbox or to the garden to get some tomatos when conditions are wet. I like mine for that purpose, but not for hiking or outdoor projects.

The only way you will know for sure is to order and try them. I find they are very comfortable and because they are a little taller than a shoe the dirt does not get into them. I too have a narrow foot and they are snug on me.

Hard to say, but I have a wide-ish foot and they are comfortable to me. Of course, thicker socks always helps. I saw that sloggers.com has free returns, and I also saw them at Walmart's website, maybe in stores, I don't know. Our local nursery and OSH carries them so I could try on in the store. Maybe you can do that somehow.

The sloggers are fairly roomy in the toe area, at least for me. If you need extra room, check them out at Meijers stores. There might be a store in your area in the Midwest

I didn't notice much of a difference between them. I used to wear custom fit orthotics and was looking for something similar to that. These didn't meet that.

if you go to the Ultra Paws web site they kind of tell you what boot is best for what application. I have not seen the durable boot

I wear size 13 Muck boots (artic) and it takes the x-lg go around the top of the boot and Velcro it closed. The top cinches nice and tight and keeps the snow out. Go larger.

Definitely more durable than dockers. They are somewhere between dockers and carhartt

I have Fobus and not well impressed with it. I preferr the Unkle Mikes in stead. Fits better and much better quality.

I personally would go with the abu cushies from abuniverse since u'd only be wearing them at night :)

I would say look for a different style. I bought these thinking they were the same that I had several years ago (which lasted me for at least five years) the other ones I had were totally round, small and squishy. These are oblong and a little bigger had hurt after a while.

I bought these. I have used them for about 2 years for metal detecting, been in the water about 3 hours each time in 40-75 degree salt water. I find very little problem with sweating in them, I usually wear a pair of cotton socks and they may get just a tad damp once summer comes around. In winter I use 2 pair wool socks and they keep me warm with no sweating. The bottoms are rubber about 15" high, and the upper part is of a thinner waterproof material so they don't get hot inside like all rubber boots. They are more comfortable also. The only complaint I have is from folding them down to the rubber boot section top, I have worn a small hole in the back on one of them. I did seal it with Goop and it has been ok since. 'Update' the Goop seal only held about 3 times in the water, and the boot started to leak again. I will have to find a better sealer. They have lasted much longer than the all rubber Hog boots and some no name boots I have tried, even before they started to leak.

Becouse I use mine with and without boots, if I'm wearing booties it's usually 3mm booties from tilos they seem to operate just fine, but my suggestion is to go by local water temperature and I say that becouse the average temp in my area requires up to 7mm for temp. I would play around with some relatively inexpensive booties before making that decision.I would say a low cut or standard booti in height would do you ok

At roughly a dollar a boot, they are by far the best value AND the most durable boos that I have found. But don' expect them to last very long. Also, I check them regularly for small holes and save those boots for dry weather. I grew up using recycled IV bags from the vet---these are much better fitting and more durable.GOOD LUCK

Don't know, personally. ... but I've heard the kickers have more bass. The pioneers have pretty decent bass and really good clarity. The kickers weigh quite a more, comparitively, with a bigger magnet, hence the bass. That's all I really know. Hope it helps.

As near as I can tell they are about the same. I have had no ware issues with either type, as long as they are kept clean of dirt and sand. hope this will help.

I haven't used the Muskin drive, however both use the same controller, I believe, and therefore their performance should be similar.
