Customer Reviews The North Face Chilkat V 400 Waterproof

These are some of the best boots I have ever bought. Im in Ohio, so I needed good winter boots. I have bad ankles, so I also needed boots that were taller. Great foot support, and they keep my feet warm and dry. Would buy these again in a heartbeat.

Took this to the Alps for a ski vacation! No issues with warmth. They kept my feet very warm. I also wore them on the plane ride home. Very comfy and no issues. Only issues is the lacing, the upper "hooks" are good but a little tricky .

I specifically bought this boot because of the cold rating it received. I wore them to my kids hockey game and it felt like there wasnt any difference between these boots and my sneakers when it came to keeping my feet warm. Dont buy.

Runs small and I would size up

This is the best winter boot I've ever owned. Comfortable and warm.

Great fit, especially if you have taller arches. Tongue could be a little softer as it rubs a bit but guessing this will wear in over time.

Great for after skiing boots. I also really liked the color. Personally I am a little tired of the all black look.

These boots are made well. My only concern is that the toe area is too narrow. I normally wear wide shoes, so I had to order a size up, and the toes still seem a bit too snug

Great fit and warm

I ordered these boots for my partner because they were recommended on Gearlab as the top winter boots for men. The sizing is very off. Boots run very small/narrow. My partner is a 9/9.5. I had to order/return multiple times. He ended up keeping size 11.

Great shoe

These boots have it all: warm, comfortable, at a reasonable price. The boots keep your feet warm and dry in cold and wet weather conditions like those here in Maine. They use plenty of synthetic insulation and a waterproof membrane to keep heat in and water out. The boots also feel great. I love the snug fit and lacing system is outstanding to that end. I do suggest going a half size up when wearing a mid-weight sock. There is no winter boot that I could recommend more highly.

Warm, bought a size up and it's perfect. Insole is a bit tight around the arch though.

I bought this form my husband and for me as well, we love it! I would definitly recomend for those who live in cold areas and for those who like trails and all kind of outiside activities that requires great stability of the ankle. It is a high quality product that is worth having!

I am working on gas station and some time my feet freeze but this one really good for me I feel my feet warm and cozy

I had similar Columbia boots, so I knew that I may need to break them in. I also wear "Work Socks" that are thicker. I re-fitted the cushion insert and wore regular socks the second time. Great fit!

These are reasonably comfortable, but on my first test in the snow at 25 degrees F, my toes got cold. While there is decent insulation on the soles and sides, there seems to little to none over the toe section. I returned the boots. They cost too much to compromise.

Overall I'm happy with them. Good for snowshoeing. Good for stomping around out in the woods. Just a good overall winter boot. I've had them out in the snow at -20f and haven't gotten cold with a pair of wool socks on. I haven't had them in the wet too much, so i cant speak to waterproof quality. I recommend going up a half size from your normal shoe size.

I travel alot in the mountains. I drive a train and these boots are super comfortable. Light and cushy lots of insulation so my feet dont get cold. I highly recommend them. I got a half size bigger and they are perfect even when i wear thermal socks. Just hope they dont wear out fast

Comfortable and warm and especially dry. Great traction in the sole. Gets the winter jobs done!

limited use thus far but great fit, nice tall shaft, good traction and the lacing system is really effective. The insole could be upgraded but for the price, no complaints. solid choice.

This is a great quality boot and I wished it worked for me. As some others have commented, it runs narrow particularly at the front and mid foot area. I'm normally a 10.5. I tried 11 and it pinched the top of my toes but 11.5 gave me too much heal slippage. I might even try to wear an ankle sock to adjust. If the boot fits for you I definitely recommend but no matter the quality and look it's probably not worth the discomfort.

Best boots Ive owned and I've owned a lot of boots. Warm, comfortable, great looking, amazing traction on ice or snow, easy on/easy off. I can't say enough food things about these boots.

These boots exceeded my expectations in every way. Warm, comfortable, and great looking.
