Product Information

Zamberlan Outfitters are the boots I trust when guiding elk and mule deer hunts in the mountains, and I can confirm that they’re incredibly reliable. They keep my footing secure over any terrain and are warm enough to wear deep into the winter months. Lightweight but breathable, your feet will be an afterthought when you lace up the Lynx. I prefer the 4014s over the 1214s because they have the BOA lacing system, but I’m just splitting hairs here. They’re essentially the same boot.

Whether you’re a hardcore archery hunter trying to stalk quietly through the elk woods on a warm September day, or a rifle hunter chasing winter wapiti, you need the proper footwear to match the weather and terrain. The right boots are tailored to specific conditions. This means that terrain and weather will also impact the constriction and design of your boots. High country hunts will require studier boots with more support and ruggedness. This most likely means heavy materials and a solid build. Low-country hunts might translate to lightweight boots with less protection. The boot materials are going to impact weight, support, toughness, mobility, comfort, and special features. Consider what your boot is made out of and how the design will affect your hunt.

The boots on this list are made for the toughest hunters, and they’ll stand up to anything you throw at them. So if you’re looking for boots that will help you bring home the bacon, look no further than this list. Breathability
