I have the Cabelas Predator Extreme Pac Boot.  Haven't had the chance to use them yet because I bought them after the season ended last spring on sale, but from all of the reviews I have read, they should be the warmest boot that I have ever owned.  I normally wear a 9.5 but had to go to an 11 in these boots as they run a bit small.  The 11 fits perfect.  I bought the XL Stabilicers for them but they would not fit.  The XXL fits perfect tho.

Predator Extreme's the warmest and most comfortble pac boot I have owned. I do alot of walking at first ice, 56 years old. I appericate footwear that performs as advertised.

I have the expedition boot. I think its the one that they talk about being used by the ididorod. By far the warmest boot I have ever used and I'm a girl when it comes to cold feet. Its a little bulky to walk in but if you want a warm boot, then its the one.

I have a pair and they are extremely warm, providing that you wear the proper socks ie: Polypropylene and a warm insulator over that. Never had a problem with cold feet.They take some getting used to though as they are tall (alot of inches between the bottom of your foot and the ice which is good) however big / awkward to walk in at first. You can also put foot warmers in the toe pocket area but I've never had to.

I've had mine for several years now. They aren't water proof anymore (even though they are gore-tex) and the bottom molding is starting to separate apart. I'll just glue them to get me through this year.

They are big so it is hard to find ice creepers for them. I take a size 10 boot and needed to get XXL stablicers to fit. I heard some guys on IS talking about putting screws to the bottoms of their boots. I would but my stablicers work fine. If my feet were bigger, maybe I would.

Nice boots overall and I would definitely get another pair for cold "dry" snowy conditions.

I'm sure you'll be pleased with them.

 those are the best boots I have ever owned . I got a pair last year and love them .  Some think they are to warm ,But I have never had a trip ruined because my feet got to WARM !!! lol .     You will love them . You can stand out all day in them on the coldest of days and never even get the slightest chill on your feet .  I just use a plain cotton tube sock and the boots do the rest .  It is a little tricky to get use to driving a truck with them on ,But I do it .      I will buy another set when I wear these out . One year on them(like 30 full days on the ice ) and still like new.

  the same booy only not camo
