I have to say these boots are by far the most comfortable footwear I own. Except maybe sneakers which I wear 99.9% of the time anyway.
BTW, you can get them on sale at times for almost half that price, or at least you could when I bought mine. The prices of everything have gone up.

Actually that was a great question and I wondered myself reading about the length of the trips these guys make and having something comfortable. Also an 11 1/2 4 E here as well but mostly from too much beer and the weight flattening my feet out I'm thinking! Very difficult finding boots for a wide foot.
As always, thanks Guy and Bob for taking the time to allow us to wander the Pines with you.

If you ever get by Atco, stop in Atco Sports on Atco Avenue. (856)-767-9446
They always have Lacrosse in Stock.
I am a firm believer in giving the local mom and pops the business whenever possible.
I have bought a lot of guns there over the years and they truly appreciate the business.
I could have saved a few bucks by going to big box or Cabelas but if they have it or they can get it, I will buy it from them.
Rose and Walt are good people and have been in the same building for 50 years.
Cabelas doesn't need your money and you will get whacked for shipping.
I wear the Lacrosse AlphaBurly for everything and I just wore a pair out after about 8 years of hard abuse.

Makes me wonder at such ingenuity, using the family sedan to power their sawmill. Note how they reversed the belt to make the blade turn the correct direction. Credit my husband with noticing that!
Re: the photos, I can't decide which I like better--the ones of the cedar maze or the long-awaited crowberry pollination event. Remarkable. Our thanks to both of you.

I am a little late jumping in but I have had a ton of stuff to do since the trip.
I had a great time on the hike, minus going over the boot twice and not having extra socks. Guy you are a life saver I owe you a pair of socks the next time we meet. It was one of the thickest spots I have been in the pines, the only saving grace there was not many briars. Buddy is a real trooper, he was plowing through areas that most men would not venture into, he looked tired at the end I know I was!
The mill was a nice treat at the end. Jack Cervetto owned a mill in Warren Grove that was powered by a mid 30's studebaker 8 cylinder engine, I wounder if this was his mill?
All in all I had a great time, good woods with good company, it was a pleasure to meet Guy, Bob and paul and I am looking forward to more PBX hikes.
I will post some pictures once I transfer them to my computer.

Scott,
I'm not sure where Atco road is, but I don't live far from Atco. If you could get me close direction wise, I'd like to check them out. I have Lacrosse steel tipped work boots and they are the most comfortable ones I've ever worn.
Thanks,
Greg
It's Atco Ave. Here is a map of the store location.

They carry primarily the Lacrosse rubber boot line. If you stop in to browse, ask Rose if she could order what you want.
Don't let Walt scare you away. He is one of a kind.
