Sorry if the images are a little blurry, I just got them saturday for $120. They are waterproof and moderately insulated too. I haven't gave them a try in the woods yet but they will get there first and maiden voyage very soon. Anyone else use Carolina's ? Im a Chippewa guy but gave these a try.

I have a pair of White's calks here now and I don't think the staff at school would appreciate me walking around on there floors with spikes LOL

Are they made in Scappoose, Warshington yet? :msp_rolleyes:

Sshhhhhhhh. That's a very sensitive subject. Particularly to those with no sense of humor. :msp_biggrin:

Ive tried Carolina's, Georgia's, Red Wings, Carhartt's, and now Chipp's.

I'm wearing these now, and they are the lightest and most comfortable boot out of the box that I've worn.

I really enjoy how light they are..and how the safety toe doesnt cut into the top of my foot when I'm crouched down say fueling up or something like that.

Congrats on the new loggers. They look good. I just got a pair of 10" Double H.

good lookin boots- keep us posted

been a chippewa fan in the past, but lookin for a change

 

[ShaneLogs]

I really recommend them, I am impressed with them for sure.

I had a pair of Carolina loggers.

Decent boots. Leather is too thin, IMO. So be sure you buy extra long tongue protectors or the laces will wear holes in your boots.

Getting new boots next week.

I have never owned a pair, but I have seen them fall apart in a matter of weeks. The soles where the first to go. They came apart like Colby cheese. . BUT, will you find something better for 120.00? no. . . I looked at some danners that could have passed for high top tennis shoes in a shoe store recently, they wanted over 300.00 for them things:msp_scared: I am still kicking myself for missing the 20.00 used pair of whites a while back, They where a good fit too. .
Go out and stomp the brush and report back with your thoughts, I am curious. .

I think they hold up very good and the soles haven't worned down at all, Just a little bit in the back but nothing major

Ordered a new pair of Wolverines just a few weeks back. Gore-tex lined, not "logger" style, regular work boots. The pair I have worn the last year and a half have been superb.

Well good, I'm glad they are holding up for you.

Thanks 056 kid! They are great boots!

Had a buddy way back in the day bought some Georgias when they had a LONG warranty -- say, 180 days? -- and he'd bring 'em in busted up within that time, every time. Made a single boot purchase last three or four years.

Im a big Chipp fan but my old Dunhams came in at a close second. Never tried Carolina's but i would like to give them a chance, everyone i know seems to be happy with them.

I picked up some Carolinas a couple of months ago to replace my old Redwings. I don’t have a job where I ware them but I do ware them 3 or 4 times a week for a few hours (Yard work, woods work, hunting, and fishing). I would get around 2 years out of the Redwings but couldn’t swallow the price this time. I have had a lot of work in the yard with cutting up dead trees and brush clearing and I think they may have a shorter life span but so far they are doing well. My first pair of loggers and they feel as well as my old Redwing and being vertically challenged every bit helps.

Never worn Carolina Boots.

The only boot I'll wear anymore made by Georgia Boot is their Romeos.
