Title: Danner Jackals
Post by: TxAg on May 03, 2012, 04:02:00 PM
Anyone have the latest model? They are cheaper than they used to be and they fit my foot well.  Some of the reviews have said they're not waterproof as claimed.

Any reviews from the trad gang?

I'm not positive when mine were made, but I bought them last summer. They're waterproof, but they took a while to break in, even with me getting them wet while scouting/stumping in the mountains... they run a little narrow. I had to buy an EE when I usually just buy regular width boots. Now that I have them all comfy, I love 'em, been hunting in them since turkey season opened and also hunted elk in them last fall. Hope this helps.

I just bought the Jackals in the 17" Snake boot. Only had then about three weeks but so far so good. Wore them all weekend at Rays stalking around the swamp. They are a little stiff but I've yet to see a new boot that wore like a slipper when new. Hope this helps.

I appreciate the info.  I'd get the EE and go a half size big based on what I tried on at the store.

If I could find a way to make them cactus proof, I'd be rich.
