How To Choose Zero Drop Hunting Boots

What you should concern yourself with here is the sole. Whatever barefoot shoe you choose for your hunt should have a sole flexible enough to move along with your foot. Also, the sole should be tough enough to protect your underfoot from the rough terrains. There should also be an insole to cushion your feet.

Your hunting doesn’t necessarily have to be waterproof. It should have features for keeping your feet dry in case of warm weather.

Lastly, you choose shoes made from quality and durable leather. Its upper should be made from synthetic material for the shoe’s breathability.
