These, along with TidWe boots, are boots Dan Infalt was recommending in the past. The GumleafUSA boots are supposedly real rubber like they used to be, not synthetics.

No idea if they are still made or if they are the same quality they were, but this particular pair is great.

Did a search. Seems Rocky bought Servus at the same time it bought Muck. They have since sold the company but it appears the all rubber, Notherner-type boot is no longer made. Rocky must have done away with the good boots in favor of the plastic type piece of trash boots they prefer to sell annually… because the soles fall off the pair you just bought! American-owned and Mexican made trash! I wouldn’t buy anything from Rocky Boots except a sandwich these days. Their restaurant is pretty decent… but like their boots, everything I’ve bought from there has turned to crap in a short amount of time.

I don't wear "rubber" boots except for farm work but I struggled for a decent to good pair of boots until I bought my American made Danners and the Crispis. They've both held up for multiple years now.

My hunting style has changed in the last half dozen years. I don’t run dogs anymore so walking and following dogs I don’t worry about anymore. That’s where the wearing of the muck boots started. Following beagles will put you into all kinds of conditions, both dry and wet.
Now I’m in a tree stand or ground blind waiting for deer to walk by. Either bow or gun. Majority will be elevated in a stand. The older I get the more I like warmth. So an insulated rubber boot keeps having me look at them. It’s been a long time since I’ve worn a leather/fabric boot. They never kept my feet warm, no matter the amount of thinsulate they had.
This is why I am looking at these lacrosse boots.

I have the La Crosse 800 and feet are always warm... The bottoms are showing their wear but have held up very well... Time to replace them... However I may go with a leather lace up boot for more ankle support...

Bought these Schnee pac boots in 1991. Sent them back in 2008 for in soles and liners. Very comfortable to walk in and plenty of room for toe heaters. For myself there's no better whitetail hunting boot! Without question. Made in Montana View attachment 204269
Can't beat a pair of pack boots with removable liners for warmth. Sorels were our go to for many many years. We got Allen a pair of rubber knee high boots with removable liners and he loves them. These are what he has:
