I finally found "the" boot. I have been looking forever for a boot that would keep my feet warm. I had to retire my Lacrosse 20+ year old boots and was looking for anything that would compare to being as warm as they were. I finally found them! This morning our temperature was -5 so I thought it would be a good day to go romping around outside just to see how warm they actually are. I was VERY impressed! I was outside for over two hours walking around in the snow and my feet were so toasty warm. I have a lot of problems with cold feet and I "have" to have a boot that will keep them warm. These are it for me. And did I mention how comfy they are? It is like walking on a mattress. :) I guess the only thing that was a little hard for me to get used to, at first, are the higher tops these have, but after wearing them for an hour or so they limbered right up and I was used to them. Like any shoe/boot

you buy, at first, you need to get used to them on your feet. Some people complain about them being heavy. I don't think they are at all. My former boots were "much" heavier. I suppose if you are use to a very light, cold boot, these would seem heavier. But, that is where the warmth comes in. They are a very well-made boot. I just can't say enough good about them. I would give them more stars if I could....

UPDATE: Still loving these boots. The only thing I have noticed is that if you want your feet to stay REALLY warm, make sure to warm the boot up first. We have a porch that stays around 40 degrees in the winter and my feet are always a bit cooler when I just put them on from the porch. That is to be expected of course, but they don't seem to warm up at all after wearing them for awhile. When I bring them in for awhile, that really makes a huge difference. Still an excellent boot! They are holding up real well.
