I bought these for my husband because he likes to snow blow the our driveway and the neighbors driveways all winter long. This is the coldest Chicago winter I can remember and he says these are not only the MOST comfortable snow boots he has ever worn but also warmest. We have hit 20 below a couple of times already. His feet can still breathe but are completely protected. He mentions how happy he is on a regular basis. Highly recommend.

I used these in Winter Park, CO last weekend during a ski trip / 24" blizzard. Feet were warm all weekend long and the grip on snow/ice was great. My IceTrekkers fit over the sole as well if I ever need 100% spike traction in heavy ice conditions. I find the fit of the 10.5 size to be roomy/wide, so I added a pair of my high-arch PowerStep Maxx insoles and it's a totally secure fit now ($35 on Amazon) + having the arch support is nice, since there isnt much from the factory. Very happy with these for a long Colorado winter!

Given the positive reviews, I was surprised by my experience with these boots. The fit and durability are fine--just what I expected. They're a bit clunky with minimal arch support, but that's not unusual for a snow boot.
However, they suffer from a near-fatal flaw. The lining is a sort of metal mesh (I don't know the actual term), which extends all the way to the top of the boot. For those who don't tuck our pants into the boot and whose socks don't quite reach the top, the mesh tears at the skin and leg hairs like steel wool. The boots are fine if I just wear them to shovel snow, but if I walk any distance, I end up in pain with a raw red ring around my leg where the boot meets the skin. So I'm about to throw these things in the trash, which is a shame because they're otherwise solid boots with very little wear.

I had a pair of North Face boots that seemed a bit narrow (snug), but these are not snug at all, maybe a bit wide, which others have commented on. It does not deter from the fact these are awesome boots. They are extremely warm, i.e., you only need one pair of socks and they do not have to be special thermal socks.

Bought these for my husband for our Midwest winters and for the most part he loves them. Comfortable, solid without being too heavy, and warm. His only negative comment was that the heel portion of the boot is a little tight...if you were planning on wearing super thick socks or multiple socks it may be too small with your regular size (but again, these are really warm...so regular socks will probably work just fine). As always, super fast Zappos' delivery and great customer support.

I wear a size 11. Had to size down to a 10 for a good fit.

I really like these but they're rated to a very low temperature and my toes are still cold. I live in the mountains and deal with snow all winter. They're better than my old boots which were a different brand but I deal with temps in the single digits, not negative 40 F. I'm a little disappointed but they do keep my feet perfectly dry.

I bought these boots early winter as my old Sorel boots where leaking. I bought these boots because I have a history with falling in the winter months. Also these are ranked good for Icy and Snow. And boy are they ever. I haven't fallen since buying them and wearing them. There not cheap but they are cheaper than a broken bone.

I've been looking for a quality snow boot for a couple years. You definitely get what you pay for with these boots. I live in West Michigan where the winters can be brutal. I look for any excuse to go outside now cause these boots are awesome! My feet are always dry and never get cold. They're a tad heavy, but I wouldn't expect anything less with the quality these boots have.

These boots have a great tread for slippery surfaces, providing a good grip in the crusty snow. Liners are warm, fast -drying.

Remarkably - almost too - warm. If you want serious snow boots for all day in the cold, these are the ones.

Like another review, I wear 10.5-11 and the 10 fits me perfect. I don't see the sense of trashing the boot when ask you need to do is go try some on and get your size. Beyond that, I haven't had the pleasure to use them yet, however if they are even close to the others I own, wonderful boots. If the liner loses its water resistance, in site sorel will fix or replace, and I, personally would use water proofer on the exterior anyway. Just my two cents...nice boot, light and warm. For star, only because of price...
