Stand in 8" of slush all day without problems.

Insert 1/2" #8 hex head self-tapping screws into each lug for a never slip grip.     ;)2

Good old Mickey Mouse boots. You're feet just don't get cold in them. They are heavier but very warm.

Same here. I've tried many different boots and these have been the best for me.

Baffin titan boots are amazing.  I thought I was getting a good boot based off of the reviews but I had no idea they would be this good!

i have a pair of woody max muck boots and a pair of baffin. both are really good, the baffins are a bit warmer but bulkier so i wear the muck boots if its above zero.  i was shocked how comfortable and light the baffins are cant go wrong with them.

Kamik Goliath boots, full rubber boots like Baffin Titan. Tried both before buying and the Kamik were more comfortable when walking for me. Have kept me warm with proper wool socks.

Love my Baffin Titans warmest boot I've worn 100 percent waterproof, fairly well priced to.  I just ordered the wife some Baffin impacts as I've heard good things about them to.

Trans Alaskans

And if you really want some warmth, stick a toe heat packet inside....

Speaking of Trans Alaskans boots, have you ever tried the Trans Alaskan snow suit or Anorak?

Thats 8 year old technology...:) :)

1 year old thread below. Answers will most likely be the same :). Mickeys, Bunnies, Trans Alaskan, Muck Arctic Pro, Baffin Titans!

If you watch those "reality" shows about Alaska on TV, you will see that most of those folks are wearing the White color Mickey Mouse Boots !!!  My pair (cost $35) are 20 years old and have NEVER left me with cold feet.
