Here's an interesting story about my latest miracle, my new Muck Boots Hoser Classic Boots. Turns out my wife is always right, after all...I work as a general contractor in the Northeast part of the country. Have you ever been there? Winters are very cold and very blustery. This week, I had a job fixing a leaky second-story window for some lady who has been bugging me for a while, claiming it was raining inside her house in the front foyer. Time to get this job done and over with. Being just a week or so after Christmas, I happened to be wearing the new Muck Boots Hoser Classics that my wife just bought me for a gift. Now, I had thought my old boots were good enough, but she insisted that she had heard about these great boots and that I should really get a pair. So, mostly I wore them just to humor her. That's me, trying to please all the ladies.
On the day I was doing this particular job, it was well below freezing. In fact, the temperatures weren't much above zero degrees Fahrenheit. People in the southern states may not comprehend this, but it means it was very cold outside. The kind of day that you typically don't want to be outside, but, a job's a job.
Let's just say that usually I have to take frequent breaks to thaw my hands and feet during these outside winter jobs. But, I found something quite interesting during this latest outdoor assignment-my feet were warm all day long. I worked longer than ever, and got more work accomplished than usual without needing to take time to defrost. At first I thought it was a fluke, then, after it happened again, I realized that these Muck Boots Hoser Classic Boots were really rather remarkable.
The Muck Boots Hoser Classic Boots are 100% waterproof, and definitely the warmest boots I've ever come across. Believe me, I've tried quite a few. I have the Mid version, which comes up to my mid-calf. There is also a Hoser Classic Hi for those folks who would like the boots to come up even higher. The upper is snug around my calf, and keeps any snow or rain out.
Walking around in these Muck Boots Hoser Classic Boots, climbing ladders to fix those high windows, and carrying heavy boxes through snowbanks is no problem with these boots. Not only are they incredibly comfortable to wear all day, they have great traction, and plenty of flexibility so that I don't feel clumsy at all.
So, I guess I would like to take this opportunity to offer my very public thanks to my wonderful wife, who has made me forget about those old boots by giving me a great gift of Muck Boots Hoser Classic Boots to keep me warm, dry, and comfortable all day long while I work. She might be hoping I'll take up an outdoor winter hobby that might keep me out of the house even longer. Thanks, Honey!
