The South Forty Bird Shooter is a lighter made boot for warm conditions....nothing flimsy about them. My current pair is going on 5 years and look almost as good as new but I'm a stickler for saddle soap and leather treatment.

Russells are as water proof as an all leather boot can be...if hunting in wet conditions it pays to keep them treated with a product such as Obenauf's.
