Hey, Tom, I used the "original" foot tractors for years and wore out several pairs. I couldn't believe it when I got up the nerve to buy the Danner ones (by far the most expensive on the market). They were 1 1/2 pounds heavier than my Simms boots -- per boot! And the Simms boots were considerably heavier than the "originals". I am still trying to figure out what to buy with the credit I got from Patagonia from sending the Danners back! I am not as tough as I used to be -- but dragging lead weights on my legs was not something I would have found helpful even ten years ago....
I hear you about the Danners. They looked durable but the weight concerned me, enough I never pulled the trigger. I'm impressed with the Forra, we'll see how they hold up.

Great, thorough review. Thanks!
And only one-half the “special” Land Rover price of the Foot Tractors!
Thanks man. They are priced well indeed.
Tom, those are on my list for possible upgrades
