That is a crazy good deal. If these were my size I would jump on them. That is like half off. Love these boots.

Anyone going hunting for sheep or goat if these are your size, you should snatch this deal up. Awesome boot, my feet have never been wet in mine.

I’m a size 12 WIDE, but tempted because I looked at these at SCI…
 
Have the same in 12’s, can’t make 11.5’s work.

Wore mine to Africa hunting the mountains, Spain and in North America. They take some breaking in but have gotten very comfortable.

Good luck!
 
This is the best hunting boot ever made!

I concur.

I have:

Mountain Extremes (NI)
Mountain Guides (I - 400g)
Hardscrabble Hikers
Safaris

I used to be Danner man, before I discovered these.



If you hunt in mountains, you can't beat a Kenetrek Mountain Extreme.

Rockies, Cascades, Appalachians, it doesn't matter.

I have had 3 pairs. They are nice at first but then the rubber rand always peels off and they always shrink so bad that I have to stop wearing them and yes I put wax and other protective products on but the results are always the same. The guys I hunt with all say the same thing, I hate them.
I just bought a pair of Hoffman 8” Explorer Light in 11 wide and I love them. I want to check out their Scout hiking boot for Africa.

Because this is an advertisement for a pair of boots for sale in the Classifieds and not an opinion pole, probably not in the best of taste to post this here…

Of course anyone who is interested could or should do their own research or check reviews outside this Classified.

From Internet:

Kenetrek covers products free of manufacturing defects for 12 months from the date of purchase, provided the soles are not worn more than 75%. [

Warranty Coverage & Details
    • What is covered: Free repair or replacement for products that fail due to material or workmanship defects.
    • What is excluded: Normal wear and tear, accidents, alterations, and damage caused by improper care (such as using non-approved boot care products/waxes).
 
I've been hunting in mine for over 15 years. Cannot find a better boot for mountain hunting. Not to mention the most comfortable pair of boots I own. Great price too! These were well over $500 last I looked. GLWS!
 
I know at least 20 guys who work with game & fish agencies who wear Kenetrek boots every day and absolutely love them.

Like every boot company that uses glue instead of heavy thread to bind soles and leather together, glue has about a 6 year lifespan.

If you actually USE Kenetrek boots, they are the best.

If you just store them in a closet for a decade or more, buy a completely sewn-together boot.

I have made 15 sheep hunts, most unsuccessful. On all but one, I used Kenetrek boots - from desert to the Pamir's. These boots are the absolute best. I tried Danner's (great for upland and work and elk type hunts) and Meidl's (delaminated in the middle of a Dall hunt and I had the wettest coldest feet in captivity) and Brownings (kangaroo upland are great).

I have several configurations of these boots and some very light hikers, they all fit and are exceptionally well made.
 
Certainly a very good discounted price.

I have an older version of that very boot. It is a great mountain/alpine boot, very warm & waterproof. The warmth factor is so much so I only wear sock liners with my boots.
It is also my main snow boot & for me it is what I wear when we go hunting Sage Grouse.

Great boot, the pair I have are over 9yrs old and I use them every season.
 
I know from experience, they will not warranty the rubber rand when it comes lose. They will send you a tube of glue to fix it. I'm sorry, I didn't mean to pour cold water on this ad, just stating my experience with them.

I have a 20+ year old pair of Russell High Country Sheep Hunter boots and yesterday while hunting elk the heel and sole came loose from the back of the boot to the ball. I checked the Russell website and I'm supposed to send photographs of the boots and expect that if I send the pair to them I will pay at least $150 for the repair. Too bad my foot is a size 9 or I would be all over these Kenetreks
