What is the recommended boot/shoe for north island hunting? Just by looking at the topo maps i can tell creek crossings are gonna play a major part in where ill be hunting. So im thinking probably the worst thing i can do is buy a pair of fancy waterproof boots as there will be no means of escape for the water, so the boots will stay wet... Ive never had any problems with spraining ankles so just regular hiking shoes also come into play.. (silly idea?)
But the best of both worlds would probably be a boot thats non waterproof canvas or something? have heard a couple of guys recommending Bullers and they look great (punch in some holes for water to run out) but i have wide feet and have heard they run narrow.
any recommendations?
cheers
