FOOTWARE zipper side rubber boots
« on: Sep 27, 2022, 06:04 PM »
Hello there ice fishing guys.   I am thinking about getting a pair of insulated zipper side rubber boots.  ( kinda like camo ones)
I have seen some  on line.  I need feedback from you who actually have a pair.  Warmth, weight, ruggedness. 
Any feedback would be appreciated.
Thanks Geo.

Don't know of a rubber/ zipper combo that's waterproof but these were comfy in da shanty last year. I wear a 10 so the women's 12 fit great & stayed dry.Holiberty Waterproof Cozy Down Warm Fleece Indoor Slippers Bootie Shoes Ankle Snow Boots https://a.co/d/5IKvvmA

Can’t imagine they will be fun when they are covered in ice and snow

I have a pair of the lacrosse alphaburly pro side zips. 1000G of insulation. Got them a year or two ago. they have been GREAT for ice fishing and hunting. they are a touch on the heavy side, but it's fine since I'm fat and don't have to run in them.

My only complaint, which I'm sure is user error, is that the camo has faded quite a bit. I leave them in my truck during the spring and the sun beats down on them, but it has not affected the waterproof side at all.

10/10 would recommend them.

Geo.
