These boots are awesome. I got these for Ice Fishing in Wyoming this Jan. I've never been so I wasn't sure what to expect. I read the most common complaint for ice fishing were cold feet. Makes sense standing on the ice. With one pair of wool socks my feet were toasty the whole time. 8 hours a day for 4 days on the ice. They are a bit challenging to put on with my size 14 feet. I think it largely due to the tall boot top that covers the calf.
