My Irish setter boot experience

[swampdogger]

And total garb. Got two pair in new cond for anyone who wants. Go grab some rocky mudsox and have done

Had the Rocky's, and my bud's had them, the sole falls off, starting at the toe. I figured that screwed them out of a lot just from 3 guys. So what did i buy this year? Irishsetter from China. Just can not win.

Damn near bought a pair of Rutmasters about a month ago, they did'nt have my size in stock. Kinda happy they did'nt now after reading this. Thanx muchly.

Did you go back to where you bought them or did you contact Irish Setter directly? I just sent Irish Setter an e-mail to the customer service address on their website.

I went back to where i bought them, G&K Archery in Wallaceburg.... they handled it and IS sent a new pair to me through them.

Good on G&K for looking after you. I don't think I'm going to bother sending mine back. Not worth the hassle. I'll just keep them for mucking around the farm and get another pair strictly for hunting.

hmm, I wish I read this yesterday, I literally just bought a pair of Rutmasters from Sail last night. I think I am going to return them and exchange them for something else.

Agreed, I will never buy another pair of setters! Both pairs I've owned leaked and the heal cup on the one pair was sharp plastic and dug into my ankle. Just bough a pair of Danner Pronghorns - they seem like better boots...but we'll see...the new ones don't get great reviews

Last update!

just got my replacement Rut Masters delivered to my home.

I got dinged for customs on the return. Just my luck.

So it cost me a total of $65.00 to ship them back & pay for the customs portion of the return.

Not happy about spending money on a warranty item but this is what I get for buying Irish Setter boots.

Sorry to bump am old topic, but are there an recent experiences with the rutmaster boots? I'm heading out this morning for boots and were considering these but I may reconsider after reading this thread.

Edit: picked up a pair of lacrosse alphaburly's for 100 bucks at gagnon sports instead.

Had the same problem, returned my boots to the store 3 times and the third time they wouldn't do anything for me. Will never buy another pair
