Arrow Mocs are the best value for quality. Google them.
Russell Mocassin Co. They are the best I've seen.

You might look into Russell's also. I've owned a pair or two as well as the Dyers back when they were Walter Dyer in the seventies. The Dyer's are incredibly tough and well made but- like any smooth bottomed moc- slicker than ice. Russell and other quality outfits usually offer some selection in sole materials- Russell's Bowhunter boot with the plantation crepe sole is incredibly quiet. Good luck Grant
You beat me to the draw Hillbilly,lol.
Thank you gentlemen!
you can make ya own i have a pattern for them. sorry but i cant post pics as i cancled my photo bucket account was haveing to much problem with it. but i am looking for another one.
I'm making my own out of horse hide. Arrow Mocs are about the right price but the others - Whew, too much $$$$$.
I got over that notion 40 years ago. Can't be quiet falling on your butt! :) ....O.L.
Ha! O.L., I was thinking about the same thing. On level ground for a stalk, they'd be the ticket but wet leaves and or mud on a slope and just the idea scares me. I'm sure there's a place for them but I'd probably prefer something closer to ankle high that was real soft and could be carried in a pack without taking up too much space for just the right stalking situation. On the other hand, I already have too many things in my pack that I don't use most days afield..... Now, if they were so thin that you could dig your toes in on a slope they'd probably do ok but not when it's very cold outside.
Put a pair of thick wool socks over your boots when it's time to get sneaky. Easy to pack, easy to slip on, and works like a charm.
Stole the idea from Fred Bear.
I used to have a pair but they would not stay up. They look nice but not very useful.
I posted this a while ago, but the stalking boots from sportsmans guide are imho the best all around stalking shoe. Not waterproof like the claim, but still a great value and awesome feel. Last I saw they were on sale for 24.99!! Definitely try them, you will not be disappointed. Those and a ghillie make you near invisible.
