Comments: These are exceptionally comfortable and they fit like a glove. You know as soon as you put them on that they're worth there weight in gold! Very light weight and they look great with casual wear. Some have mentioned they are hard to get into but I've had no problems even with a thick sock.

Comments: So far I haven't had a whole lot of need to use them, but we did go out in the woods for a Christmas tree and they were high enough to keep out the snow. I also used them to decorate an outdoor tree right after an 9" snowfall and they kept my feet warm and dry.

Comments: I purchased these boots intending to use them for snowshoeing, but they proved to be more versatile than singling out one sport. They are perfect for trudging through deep snow -- my feet have not gotten cold or wet (or sweaty, for that matter). Due to their comfort, warmth, and traction, I have also replaced my casual winter boots with these for shoveling and walking the dog around the slushy, icy streets. Their single downfall is the lacing system, which obviously requires more time and effort to get them on and off.
great lightweight boot....

I just got mine and it amazed me how comfortable they are. They feel like a normal hiking boot, I'm so used to snow boots being clunky and awkward, not these! I bought mine to use w/ snow shoes and I'm looking forward to using them this winter.
One thing that's not mentioned in the specs for this boot is that they are rated to -40 F with the thinsulate insulation.
