I got my Danner Elk Hunters today and I am need of some silicon boot treatment...I have never used it...so any good recommendations?
I have only used mink oil and snoseal on mine (not elk hunters, but other boots). I really like the snoseal. Not silicone (I think) but wax based.
http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/...3L._SS500_.jpg
But, it only works on full grain leather. If your elk hunters aren't completely full grain, then a silicone spray maybe? Sorry I am no help here.
I went to the site and looked up the outer material, says "full grain leather".
I would guess that they would come with recommendations from Danner ? (Made in USA, Good job!)
That lacking, I would recommend mink oil as well, to start with, couple of applications then the Sno seal.
That what I use on mine, (Remington),had them for over 20 years, and love them for "Out West" trips.
Real good for mountains, up-land, high country, cactus (steel shanks), 11" uppers anckle protection and the lug soles. (do collect mud in the big, aggressive lugs)
They will handle some snow, dew.
Cool (very cool) boots, but your original post talks about "swamp boots"?
I guess they would not be my first choice for wet areas?
Neatsfoot Oil worked really well.
Hunter maybe this will clear it up. I already have chippewah waterproof snakeproof to my knees boots, hip waders, chest waders. I wanted something lighter cooler for long trecks, not in the swamp but around them. The Elk Hunter is waterproof good for about 6 in. of careful wading. Guess my post was a little misleading. Danner specified silicone based treatment.Quote:

Now you got me considering a pair.
I do what Hunter suggested on my buffalo moccasins and have had them for 11 years two resoles and a good washing in woolite every fall.
Well there you go, that would be my decision, use what's recommended.Quote:

Anyway, Congrats, looks like a real good pair, like I said, had my Remingtons for over 20 years, but then again I don't wear tham every day.
( I probaly spend more money on boots and Moc's that any other kind of shoe I have, and you get what you pay for.)
I am very impressed with them..like Hunter said you get what you pay for. They have a pretty substantial 2 yr warranty. Included is also an offer to have them completely reconditioned inside of think it was 20 yrs. Including resole, stitching repairs etc. I am going off memory so if I am wrong about any of this I'll repost. Kind of just browsed over the info. last night. I will contnue to give a review on the boots since it seems some are interested. I wore them a bit around the yard yesterday evening. They are very true to size, a little stiff but of course they are new. As always it requires some care to get the tongue to fold in correctly untill it takes a permanent set. More after a few more hours in them.Quote:

Those boots are linesman boots, more steel than the wife's new car yet I have worn them since around '93 and they will outlast me.:clap:Quote:

Back of my truck looked like a Lacrosse ad, chest waders, hip boots, 14"snake proof rubber boots, Pac's, light and heavy weight, and pac-moc's.........Made everywhere but USA, now.
Glad to see your Danners are still made in the good old USA.
How about Red Wings, still made in Red Wing MN. ?
My socks were OD green and real dirty, so I guess I didn't notice.:innocent:Quote:
