Who It's For
Hunters who need to wade through standing water, push through briars, and keep moving without choosing between wet feet and torn-up legs. The Dan's Five Star Chap with Frogger Boot is built for coon hunters, duck hunters, and anyone working marshes, creek crossings, and flooded timber where the cover doesn't stop just because the water starts.
What Are Froglegs?
Froglegs are Dan's solution to hip-deep conditions. Each pair starts with a briarproof outer chap lined with water-repellent nylon that runs all the way down to the lower ankle. Dan's team then sews and seals that chap directly to the boot of your choice, creating a waterproof hip wader that also sheds briars and brush from boot to belt. Wear them pulled up and attached to your belt with the adjustable straps, or fold them down and snap them at the knee when conditions allow.

Why It's Worth It
- Hip-Deep Waterproof: The sewn-and-sealed chap-to-boot construction keeps water out from boot sole to belt.
- Briarproof From Boot to Belt: Water-repellent nylon lining runs through to the lower ankle, so briars and sharp sticks don't find a gap at the boot top.
- Serious Boot Construction: Chemically resistant rubber, 2 mil. overlay, steel shank, and aggressive tread handle the worst terrain you can put them through (one reviewer wore his for a week on Arctic tundra).
- Versatile Carry: Attach to your belt for full hip protection or fold down and snap at the knee when you're out of the water.
- Gel-Comfort Insole: Comfortable enough to wear for a full night of hunting or a week of trekking.
- Hand-Sewn in the USA: Crafted in Ohio for superior quality and field-readiness.
Sizing Guide
- Chap thigh: Measure around the largest part of your thigh over your jeans and add 2–3 inches. Order 2–3 inches shorter than your normal inseam; 3 inches shorter is recommended. If between sizes, most buyers choose the shorter length.
- Boot size: Dan's Frogger Boots size similarly to Muck Boots. If you're unsure of your size, trying on a pair of Mucks at a local store is a reliable guide. Size up if you plan to wear heavy socks. Boot sizes 6–15 available.
