For top quality boots, stick with products manufactured in the U.S. and Europe. Brand name boots from China are substandard at best.
Good to know. My Elk Trackers are still the "old" ones, and like Jamie Black mentioned, they are a bit on the heavy side.

I Will likely be looking for something along the lines of what you are talking about if I find myself doing longer treks in early-season hunting.
