Living in New England I've wanting to find a versatile boots that I can wear in snow, rain, slush and mud. All the others I have tried (and I've looked at dozens of boots in the past few months, like Kamik, Sorel or Muck Boots) were either too heavy, too clunky or not high enough. These are THE BEST! I can wear them in the rain, the snow, the slush, the mud and they keep me warm and dry. I'm most likely going to get myself another pair I can't get enough of them! BEST BOOTS I'VE BOUGHT!
