I have just re-read this thread about the cord locks and put my rear in gear with procuring them especially after reading what happened to Jimbo. I too, am intending to run the OTB boots for the first time this summer.

I have always run the chota Mukluks but think they could get pulled off in a deep bog. Plus the traction is lacking.

Thanks DD for bringing this up again. And thanks ST for the tip.
