Lacrosse Alpha Deck Boots the Boss

I have been wearing a pair of popular brand, gingham-patterned rubber boots, ankle high, for years. I bought them at least 9 years ago to match my granddaughter’s gingham boots, made by the same company. When Lacrosse reached out to me with an offer to review the new Alpha deck boots in Timberwolf/camo, I jumped at the chance, and looked forward to trying them.

I have not been disappointed. I received the boots shortly after saying yes, and slipped them on – noticing how much more cushy they are than the worn-out gingham numbers I’ve been clomping around in these days.

I have worn the Alpha deck boots on short hikes in the woods, on antler hunts and while running errands. I find myself slipping them on to run outside to the greenhouse or to take a load of kitchen refuse to the composter. They have become my go-to boots and now, I may have to take a picture of the gingham boots and relegate that footwear to a thrift store, or to a dumpster.

Meanwhile, here’s what I like about these boots:

  • Constructed from premium rubber overlaid on insulating neoprene, which makes them waterproof
  • Lined with a quick-drying mesh, which means my feet don’t get super sweaty 
  • Alpha fit means they come in half sizes, too, for a more accurate fit
  • Kick-off heel plate, so you don’t need a boot jack to do the job
  • Foredeck outsole is slip-resistant, and as Lacrosse states, it’s  “designed to provide traction in the wettest environments” 
  • 6-inch height
  • 2.3 pounds 
  • Easy to slip on and slip off, includes a pull tab on back of each boot, too
  • Recommended for temperatures between 30 and 80 degrees; non-insulated

The Alpha deck boot by Lacrosse comes in five funky colors/patterns, including Mossy Oak Original Bottomland, Sagebrush, Wild Dove, Sea Spray and my boots, the Timberwolf/camo. I’m liking all of the colors, and may just have to order another pair to sit by another door. Women’s sizes run from 5 to 11. MSRP: $120
