Farming like there’s a tomorrow

Boots from the Muck Boot Company

July 30th, 2009 Posted in General Randomness

Way back in April we were contacted by Mandy at the Muck Boot Company seeing if we wanted to try out a pair of their Muck Work Boots and in return we’d write up a blog post for them. (And they said please rate our boots honestly in the blog post, good or bad).So they sent Melanie and I each a pair. I promised some good video blogging on the subject as well….that’s coming later this fall when we’ve put’em through the official “Blue Fox Farm We Wear the Heck Outta Stuff” stress tests.

Well I walked in the back door tonight and saw my Muck Boots next to Melanie’s and realized they had mud on them from late May. Remember back in May when it was raining constantly? That was the time when these comfy boots really played a part in our daily farm tromps.

These boots are designed for muck. Go figure. And we’re looking at a period of time here in southern Oregon when we’re pretty muck-free. But I just wanna put these boots back on. They really are the most comfortable slip on work boot I’ve worn. And when you go in and out of the house ten to twenty times in a day, “slip on” footwear is the key.

So they other day (high of 102 degrees) I put my boots back on to wash veggies in the “Wash and Pack” barn. Well, it just didn’t happen. Too darn hot in those boots. I put my sandals back on and continued.

So, moral of the story:

Wear your Muck boots when it’s mucky. When it’s not mucky don’t wear them.

I’ll be reinvigorating my love for my Muck boots come fall and winter. I’ll be getting a lot of good video action shots too. So be prepared this fall. It might just become Muck-a-palooza or something of the sort.

Ok, now I’m going to go sit in the river. It was 109 yesterday and 105 today.

p.s. Demian loves my Muck Boots too!
