New Boots

[billditrite]

no....but they need to be re-soled....they charge for that....the leather upper is the only part that has the lifetime guarantee

no way...bring em back and tell you want a store credit and they will give you one...i have done it plenty of times...check your email

I purchased a pair of Cablea's Inferno™ 2000 Pac Boot last year for deer hunting and ice fishing.  I have not had a problem with them at all.  They have an agressive tread my HT cleats fit over them.  I have never tried the Micky Mouse boots but I don't think they would work for me anyway since I have to walk to all my spots for fishing early ice.  I don't have a snowmobile or 4 wheeler.  They cost me $129 on sale last year.

If you budget is really tight look for Herman Survivors sold exclusively at Walmart.  I bought a pair on sale for $15, regular they are about $24.  They have 600 gram Thinsulate and good traction.  They will last you a good 2-3 years but at the price you can't complain when you have to replace them.  They are very light weight, warm and for the most part waterproof.  For those on a tight budget, you can't go wrong here.

I just got a pair of the Cabela's Snow Squall 1200's this year. I wore them for the first time this past Friday as I plowed my drive. Very warm. I actually plowed my drive twice and used my old boots the second time. I can really tell the difference between a Farm & Fleet special and a quality pair of boots. I am glad I got them. Now I just need some ice to go fishing on. Snow Squalls are $90 at Cabela's.

I just picked up a pair of Ranger Glacier Bay Rubber boots. I paid $50 at the local Farmer Supply.
They are rated to -80 deg F. I have not tested them in winter conditions, however with the wet deer season I have crossed a creek or three. They are very warm and comfy. Only time will tell if they will keep the toes warm this winter. 
Anyone else use them? How is the durabilty?

Ranger Boats are the warmest pair ive found.

One more vote for M-I-C-K-E-Y  M-O-U-S-E !  I did an inventory of a wearhouse when I was in the USAF and the count said we were three over what was on the manifest.  Needless to say I had to make the paper work balance.  Simple, supper effective and inexpensive.  Do a web search for the best price.

Ranger Boats are the warmest pair ive found.

Are yours the heavy metallic real sparkly ones . With an outboard the size of a refrigerator ?

Those are not very warm and are very heavy . The plus side is they double as a PFD !!!

I have a pair of sorel bears and just put a pair of wool socks on over my regular socks. I've never had cold feet in them yet and have fished some cold cold temps. Mine are handcrafted ones but I heard recently sorel was bought out or they moved manufacturing to china and are no longer hand crafted.

Going on 5th season.  One total submersion.  It's a pac boot not a running shoe, but it feels like a tight fitting
hiking boot.  Very warm.  Price has been constant.  Good traction and support.  Replaceable liner (haven't needed to yet, but would recommend purchasing a second so you can dry one, while wearing the other if need be).  Relatively easy on/easy off with the lacing system.  I have a pair of Trans Alaskans I am waiting to break in, but just can't get around to it because I keep wearing these.

Last year when we realized this was going to be our winter sport... not that we are good at it... we just enjoy it!! we decided to get some warm boots...

we went to www.kei.com      they had a very large selection to choose from..

http://www.rei.com/online/store/Search?storeId=8000&seq=1&link=1&title=Winter+Boots&query=*&cat=4500231%2C4500232%2C4501287&text=1&top=740602,740603,698968,712882,725582,725936,740635,742913&topTitle=Holiday+Favorites&vcat=REI_SSHP_FOOTWEAR_LD:P1

We both got a pair of Baffins and they are amazing how warm they keep our feet.

now had i known about the mickeys, i would have wanted a pair of them....... i like the idea of white boots... they are obviously proven warm too!! wow...

If you are thinking about getting the Cabela's Snow Squall boots, now is the time to do it as they are on sale for $79.95 both online and at the stores.  I have a pair and they are great.

[METIPPIN]

 Glacier Point™ Pac Boot  $69.95 from Cabelas I have had them for two years and have held up great The liner even has a spot for a toe warmer but i haven't had to use it yet boot is plenty warm.

I just placed an order for my second pair of Cabelas Polar Cap Pac Boot.  On sale for $80.
These were what I was referring to in my earlier post on this thread.  My originals (~5 years old now)
are still going strong, but sometimes I like to change boots mid-day or every other day...or keep a pair
at home, and a pair at camp....just call me the Emelda Marcos of the pac boots.

I just got a brand new pair of white Mickey Mouse boots on Ebay from an Army Surplus store. Brand spanking new complete with military instructions for $40.00. I ruined one of a pair of my older ones by leaving them outside the door and allowed it to fill with rain for several days. The sole sucked up water and i couldn't get it all out. The top was open to the rain. I won't do that again. 

Now if we could just get some ice around here!
