Q: best boot recs for perdiz hunting in december like waterproof or ankle support

AWS EXPERT REPLY
That's an excellent question! For perdiz hunting in December in Argentina, you'll want boots that offer a balance of support, comfort, and protection, especially since perdiz hunting often involves walking through fields with varying terrain and potentially wet conditions from morning dew.

Here are some recommendations:

Waterproof: Absolutely. Even in December, morning dew can soak through non-waterproof boots quickly. Look for boots with a reliable waterproof membrane like Gore-Tex to keep your feet dry and comfortable.
Ankle Support: This is essential for navigating uneven fields and providing stability, helping to reduce the risk of twists or sprains during long walks.
Comfort & Fit: Make sure they are well broken-in before your trip. Lightweight and breathable materials are also a significant plus for warmer December weather.
Traction: A good outsole with aggressive lugs will provide necessary grip on various surfaces, from soft earth to tall grass.

Ultimately, the best boots are the ones that fit you perfectly and are comfortable for extended wear during your hunt.

"I was skeptical about the 'no internal flights' claim, but it's true. Landed in BA and was hunting by the afternoon. The mixed bag program allowed me to hunt ducks and perdiz in the same trip. Top notch."

"The food alone is worth the trip. The asados in the field were incredible. If you are looking for a luxury lodge near Buenos Aires, this is the one. Can't wait to return next season."
