I purchased these for my son, who lives in Canada. He told me they are very warm, very comfortable, and make him very tall!

I like these boots. Plenty warm and I like the buckle; nice for when it's cold. The reviews are right! Order a size larger than you think you need. My only con is they are some stiff. Good riding boots.

This boot does not feel small once it is on; the instep doesn't have a lot of loosening slack so it feels tight when it's going on or off. Once you've passed the spot, its fine. I haven't gotten to use them in the cold yet (next season).

Very warm boot - I got these boots for my boyfriend for his snowmobiling trip this year and he was very pleased with this item. He said they are very warm and I did go with a size bigger because that is what the other posts read but Matt thought maybe his size would have worked also. He said for those who snowmobile the straps might not be a good thing because when you stand up and ride and rest your foot on the seat, the straps dig into your leg. This was the only complaint he had otherwise he loves these boots.

Just received these boots today in time for the storm! I am so glad I read the reviews. These boots do run small, so order a whole size larger. Had I not, I would be returning them. My husband is very pleased with them & can't wait to try them out.

Great Boots - My son loves these boots. Have a hard time finding good winter boots for him. He has a size 15 foot and these boots fit and he loved them so much he was walking around the house with them on for a whole day. Great boots I would buy them again. Also Zappos is great the boots were here the very next day. Love it when you call Zappos and you get to talk to a real person. Great company. Great products!

Totally Surprised - I came across Zappos.com while surfing the internet for a pair of winter boots with buckles. The boots are exactly what I expected, I wear mens 8-8 1/2 hiking boots, I ordered size 10 and they are a perfect fit. What really surprised me was the speed of delivery. I have received numerous positive comments from people. Thanks Zappos.com

Sorel Alpha Trac boot - Just wanted to let others know that when I called the Sorel rep. he told me the boot runs a ½ size smaller, but read customer reviews and they said order at least one size up. They were so true. If you like to wear two socks, maybe a size and a half.

Great snowmobiling boot - Upon reading other reviews, I ordered one size bigger than needed, and that worked out great. Very comfortable and very warm boot.

Sorel Alpha Trac - Ordered a size 12, my foot is an 11.5. Can't even begin to put on this boot. The heel will not go. An engineering mistake? Maybe I have heard others with the same problem.

Alpha Trac Buckle Boot - This boot looks really awesome but my 11 year old son could not even try it on because it was hard to get on and seemed to be at least 2 sizes too small. Be sure to order a bigger size. We already order one size bigger and he still could not get it over his heel??
