Lacrosse Men's Snake Country 17" Snake Guard Hunt Boot - Olive - 521170
The Snake Country 521170 is a 17-inch, non-insulated snake boot built for warm-weather work and hunting in country where you have to assume there's a copperhead or rattler in the brush you're walking through. Flexible Snake Guard fabric wraps the full shaft for 360-degree coverage against most North American snake species, and the mesh lining keeps air moving so your legs aren't cooking inside a sealed boot in July.
This is a snake boot first. If you spend your days in tall grass, scrub, or timber, ranchers, surveyors, pipeliners, and hunters alike rely on the 17-inch shaft to cover the strike zone most bites land in. It's built for mild to warm conditions - not a winter boot, and not a waterproof one. If your job needs a safety toe or a waterproof liner, this isn't that boot, and that's worth knowing before you order.

Frequently Asked Questions
Will these actually cover the spot where most snake strikes land?
Yes, the 17-inch shaft is built specifically to cover the range below the knee where most snake strikes hit.
Will my legs cook in these on a hot July afternoon?
No, the quick-drying mesh liner is built around airflow, so it moves moisture and heat out rather than sealing your leg in.
Can I pull these on fast without messing with laces?
Yes, the finger-hole pull-on design gets you moving without any lacing.
