Customer Reviews Danner Wolf Creek Chukka

TWO QUICKS ANSWERS: YES it has a gusseted tongue, and NO it is not the same color as the Forset Heights II "Falcon Grey". The long answer: Both here, and on the Danner website, they neglected to mention that there is a fully gusseted tongue to accompany the Danner Dry waterproof liner, so it is a truly waterproof boot. Also, the pictures on Zappos are very true to real life appearance. It is a very neutral brown boot, or maybe a very dark warm gray? In either case if you really want a truly gray boot, this might not be the best choice. The brown color, like the Jack line is almost oxblood. In all respects it is very comparable to the Forest Heights 2, it has more cushion and out-of-the-box flexibility than the Jack 2 line (which features a leather sole). Because of the gusseted tongue it is fairly snug for anyone with high instep - at least initially - but the shoe runs very true to other Danner boots.

These fit great but look even better. Some rolled up denim, some Stance socks, looks killer with these bad dogs. Stoked.

I really wanted to like the boot. It was really comfortable to once you got the boot on. If you have a high arch good luck getting this boot on. The gusseted tongue makes it quite difficult. There in lies the other problem. The tongue coupled with the waterproof liner make this boot rather toasty. Even with a thin pair of socks my foot wash swampy by lunch sitting at my desk. I’ve had ski boots that breathed better than these. If they made these without the liner they’d be great.
