Fine boots - if you don't need to walk By booty from Wisconsin on 10/16/2008 Cons: Difficult Entry & Exit, Heavy, Not Comfortable Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are awful! Sure, they might be warm and fuzzy, but walking in them is terrible. Whoever said it is like walking in downhill ski boots was right on the money. They are so stiff and the soles are so thick. No flexibility whatsoever. Very disappointed.
By stylin chich from victoria oz on 07/16/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Easy Entry & Exit, Good Traction, Warm, Waterproof Best Uses: After Skiing/Snowboarding, Cold Weather, Snow Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living, Winter Sports Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: so easy to move around in i took the advice of other reviews and ordered a size up from my actual size fitted perfectly i have a regular calf and wide foot and these bootsare an excellent fit but i would not recommend for someone with a large calf or narrow foot. these are so warm and comfy.
Sturdy boots for a great price. By summertime from grass valley, ca on 04/07/2008 Pros: Easy Entry & Exit, Good Traction, Warm, Waterproof Best Uses: After Skiing/Snowboarding, Snow Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Boots are great. Size runs a little large. A little clunky and not much flexibility when walking. However - great boot, keeps foot dry and perfect for heading out for some skiing.
By sumrtymgirl from Willamette Valley, Oregon on 03/27/2008 Pros: Breathable, Comfortable, Easy Entry & Exit, Good Traction, Warm, Waterproof Best Uses: After Skiing/Snowboarding, Cold Weather, Snow, Wet Conditions Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: These boots are very comfortable, warm and waterproof. They are a bit heavy, and like any good winter boot, look a bit bulky, but are more attractive than most I have seen. They lace quickly and I love that the inner boot has a "handle" in the back that really helps when putting these boots on. The liner is very warm and soft. I am very satisfied with this purchase.
By Renee from Michigan on 03/24/2008 Pros: Comfortable, Easy Entry & Exit, Good Traction, Incredibly warm, Lightweight, Warm, Waterproof Best Uses: Cold Weather, Snow Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Gear Usage: dogsledding, Winter Sports Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I bought these boots to go dogledding in northern Minnesota. They were warm and dry in some pretty cold and wet conditions. I highly recommend these boots.
By -the search goes on from New England on 03/20/2008 Cons: Difficult Entry & Exit, Heavy, Not Comfortable Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: I was looking for a good winter boot that I could wear around and look good but that would be sturdy enough to throw on the snow shoes as well. They are certainly a good quality sturdy winter boot, but I did not like the fit at all. They seemed enormous to me yet they didn't seem to have that room inside. Sadly I will have to return mine. I would think if you are familiar with Sorels and the fit, then you may do okay. They are a great boot, but not to my liking.
By Celtimar from Syracuse, NY on 03/17/2008 Cons: Heavy, Not Comfortable Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational Gear Usage: Cold Weather Living Bottom Line: No, I would not recommend this to a friend Comments: First let me begin by saying that I sent these boots back and therefore cannot offer a completely detailed review about how they truly wear and hold-up over time. I was shocked and disappointed by the true massiveness of these boots. I knew they would be serious winter boots, but was completely caught off guard when I opened the box and tried them on. I read reviews prior to ordering and followed the advice of others, and being a half-size, I ordered up. This was my first mistake. I should have ordered down. In addition, I found it very difficult to walk. It felt like I was wearing downhill ski boots; very awkward and rigid. I guess if I intended to wear them for winter sports or on snowmobiling trips, they would have been better, but my intention was to have them as everyday winter boots. While they didn't work out for me, I was still impressed with the way they looked and were constructed. All in all, if you try them and they don't work out for you, rest assured that you should still be able to find an alternative on this site. Happy Shopping!
