These boots are the best winter boots I’ve ever had! I live in New England so winters are brutally cold, to snow to wet and muddy all in the same week and these boots take it all in stride! They are so light I’m happy wearing them for miles of hiking in the woods with the dogs, and then straight to the low tide mark! Just wonderful! I’m ready for things to get warm and will get the uninsulated version for the rest of the year. I have tried so many boots for coastal life and none have performed as well as these on every front. I hope they hold up a few seasons, which would officially make them the best boots ever made.
