So with my land full of Rattlesnakes I have been looking to get my wife and daughter snake boots.

The problem being no one has them in there size or has them at all! They are a size 6 to 6.5 female they don't care what they look like. Thanks.

We have done many web searches and could not find anything that fit there needs! Mostly cost is the issue wife does not want to pay $200+

I would see if Crackshot has anything.  We sell their Sting Ray guards in my shop, and they are pretty nice.

There are companies that offer snake boots in women's sizes out there.  I plan on buying a pair of Irish Setter Vapr-Trek sometime in the near future.  As for the price that's just the nature of the beast, they are going to be $200 or higher.  The way I look at is even if you have awesome insurance a single venomous snakebite is going to cost you a fortune in hospital fees.  If you require antivenin the cost goes up exponentially.  A single vial of CroFab cost over $3,000 and the victim often requires multiple vials.  Then add all the additional costs and you are well over $100,000.

$200 is a tiny price to pay in comparison.

Agree! Yet having to spend $300+ for something I can get for men less the $100 is a joke!

Other problem is that most are WP and in Southwest Texas that just makes you hotter and is not needed.

You can opt for gaiters but there's always the chance you get tagged in an area not protected.  The Irish Setter Vaprtrek are the same price for women's size as men's.  Easy to find them for $200.

The whole reason I chose the Vaprtrek is because the reviews said they were the most comfortable and not as hot as other brands.

Size 6 for sale right now on Amazon for $175.
