From LaCrosse Footwear

LaCrosse Footwear is introducing three new series to its youth footwear collection for Fall 2011, with fun and functional additions of the Alpha Mudlite Youth, Youth Wellington HD and Pinetop Youth product lines. Whether out playing in the snow and rain or keeping up with grown-ups in the great outdoors, the expanded youth collection offers great solutions for kids who need boots that keep them warm and protected.

The Alpha Mudlite Youth allows kids to “Play Dirty” with the features and benefits of the adult version. 100% waterproof protection and naturally insulating rubber over neoprene ensure that your child is protected from mud and moisture. The Mudlite low outsole adds traction and the removable EVA footbed is another layer of comfort, which means your kids can play all day. This product is available in three different styles including 3” brown, 9” Next-G-1 and 9” black. Sizing ranges from Youth 11-6 in whole sizes only, and pricing ranges from $59.95 for the 3” and $69.95 for the 9”.

The Youth Wellington HD may be slightly smaller, but is every bit as tough as the adult version. With full-grain leather and a Hyper-Dri lining for 100% waterproof protection, this boot is as durable as it is attractive. Side pull loops allow for easy on/off, and 900 Denier Nylon promises long-lasting durability. The Youth Wellington HD is available in sizes Youth 11-6, whole sizes only. Pricing is $59.95 for the 8” in brown or Next G-1.

Finally, the Pine Top Youth is a great Pac boot that will ensure your kids run out of energy before they run out of warmth. The aggressive Trac-Lite outsole provides excellent traction on snow and slush, and the boots have a removable foam liner for conditions where additional insulation is not needed. Available in brown and black, the Pine Top Youth comes in sizes Youth 11-6, in whole sizes only. Pricing is $69.95 for this series.

“We’re excited to bring new, feature-rich styles to market that will keep kids comfortable in all activities year-round,” said Justin Behnke, LaCrosse Product Line Manager for Hunt. “These styles provide the same high-quality craftsmanship, materials and satisfaction-guarantee that LaCrosse offers with any boot, because we know kids play as hard — or harder — than we do.”
