- Is the Chasseur good for cold weather?
- Yes. The full neoprene lining and leather-topped insole are made for winter wear, and owners report warm feet on cold, wet days. It is not insulated beyond the neoprene, so very deep cold may still need thick socks.
- How tall is the boot?
- The shaft is 44 inches, which is a tall field boot that reaches well up the calf. Expect a bulky fit around the leg.
- Does it have a zipper?
- Yes. It has a side zipper plus slip-on entry, which makes it easier to pull on and off than a plain rubber boot.
- Is it waterproof?
- Yes. The rubber upper is waterproof, and the neoprene lining adds warmth. It does not use a Gore-Tex membrane.
- What sizes are available?
- Listings show US sizes from 5 to 13, including half sizes in some ranges. Check the specific size before ordering, since stock varies by store.
- Is the Chasseur worth it over cheaper rubber boots?
- The Chasseur is a premium boot, and its case rests on the hand-made build, full neoprene lining and leather-topped insole that owners say last for years. Cheaper boots cost less but usually skip the lining and the leather insole and wear out sooner.
- Where is the Le Chameau Chasseur Neoprene Lined Wellington Boots cheapest?
