I bought a pair if camo underarmour boots at dicks for 199.99. Best $ i spent in a while. They have 800 grams of insulation, so warm you only need 1 pair of socks on. Pretty lightweight, and there great hunting boots. Very waterproof and i highly recomend them.

i have a pair of Cabelas Inferno 2000 pac boots... i have only had them this year but i am very happy with them... Dry, warm, comfortable, relatively lite, and only $120 bucks.... I have put miles on those boots this year and out in 6 inches of snow and 2 degrees for 10 hours... Im sure there are better boots but for $120 bucks they are great....

I like my irish setter 600 gram pac boots- they're the old style with the rubber bottom and leather upper...Just find a pair thats roomy enough so the insulation doesn't get crushed too bad and doesn't work anymore- and make sure you account for extra room for socks. I think expensive boots can be a bit overrated...its usually just a rubber shell with insulation anyway.

Thanks you all have been alot of help.

Honestly, my boots are probably 16 yrs old, I have no idea what grams of insulation they use, I probably paid under 50 bucks for them but my feet have gotten cold 3 or 4 times in brutal conditions over the course of 14 years of ice fishing. I only wear one pair of merino wool socks. I think that is the secret.

Half the time I don't even end up tying my boots because my feet stay warm.

muck arctic pros hands down, warm dry and provide a great seal with those open edge walks or kneeling down with some water on the ice

Finally bit the bullet and got tired of cold feet. Bought some Baffin apex , which for some are overkill around here . I have tried cabelas predaters and my current 1200 gram thin. boots and still cold(mild frostbite as kid ). These are great. 7 hours in 9 degree temps with 1 pair of socks and warm feet for once.

Field & Stream rubber boots with 1,000 grams of insulation. Dick's has them.

One word...
Baffling
Both me and my brother wear them. Take a trip to Mickey Fins in Berlin. Some great cold weather gear in the work shop.

I'm a muck guy, I've been through a couple pairs of different models, right now it's the Arctic Sport. Comfortable, waterproof and warm.
