I wish the companies such as LL Bean, Shnees, etc would make a boot without the heel. I have a pair of Bean MHS that I love, but would like option of no heel. I use the heel when walking on slippery hillsides so it is needed, but when stalking on flat ground, I think a flat bottom would be better. I'm a fan of leather upper/rubber bottom boots so an all rubber is not an option. Don't like how they feel. What do you guys think?
I conpletely agree. I love the shoes that I have that have no heels, and I experience less foot and knee problems when wearing them. I would love to see a no heel, minimalist, waterproof hunting boot option.
I know Russels have the no heel option, but I just wish the Bean style boots had this option.
They do, the Thula, but at almost $400, I'm hesitant to try them.
Belleville makes a Mini-Mil that I've been tempted to try. But, just looking at the store, the sole seemed very stiff.
