Knee High Boots
Does anyone have some information on knee high boots? I found a site at one time but can not find it again that had a pair of hunting boots that went to the knees. I am looking for the hunting boots or if there is a dress pair that also goes to the knees. Thanks for your help.

Depends on the brand you want.
Doc Martens make 14-eye.
Here's Zappos. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE them. You can usually call them after ordering and get next day free shipping. This is the first page of boots.

White's Boots has a lineman boot that looks like it might satisfy your requirements. It's knee high, could be used for hunting, I suppose, and if you overlook the aggressive treads, could be dressy if you keep them shined up.

I had some old snake boots from Sportsman's guide. Don't know where they are right now, though.

I am VERY familiar with these boots being used in hunting. One of my "fondest" memories is when my feet stopped growing, I got my "Whites" (over 50 years ago.) It was like a "rite of passage". My Grandfather, Dad, & uncles all wore them. Hunting & "tromping around in the woods. I have no idea when they got them, but the earliest pictures I have of them, (up on the property,in the 30s, show them being worn.
They are spendy, but if you take care of them, they will last a lifetime. (they are meant to be USED.. Whites will resole, restitch or even rebuild. (if you are lucky enough to be close to Spokane WA, it gets even better) My boots over the 50 years, have been resold a couple of times ( now have the "lug soles, as opposed to the "corks" that I wore for years ) plus some minor restitching.
If you are interested, contact WHITES & tell them what you are looking for. You might be surprised what they can do for you.

Wow. I like the DM 1b60 in red.
I have had a pair of 8841s for three years and love them. They aren't knee-high, but they are insulated with thick soles and steel-toe. They come up just below my calf muscle.

As someone who was required to wear steel toe boots for over 20 years at work. one thing I can tell you is the steel toes are not good for cold weather. They are okay for doing a lot of moving around, but if you do any stand hunting, where you sit still for long periods, your feet will get cold.
