New 400g insulated, waterproof, slip-resistant boots! I was actually just looking for standard boots to replace a pair of trusty but nearly dead Ariats that I’ve worn daily for over a year when I found these marked way down to $135 at 6pm with only my size left in stock. It’s been dipping into the teens at night already here so I couldn’t pass them up. I’ll find new summer boots later. Fit is great and after wearing them outside a little bit this evening I can confirm that they are indeed sufficiently toasty. I know some of Ariats recent lower-end stuff has been hit or miss, but the quality definitely seems to be there on these. I think the original $200 MSRP is fair and what I paid is looking like a steal. Bring on the snow! Now, I just gotta get through that always rough first week of western boot break-in...

Fancy! I’ve upgrade my winter footwear with a significantly less stylish (though hopefully functional) product:
The good news is I like the look and they feel comfy enough. Time will tell if they are actually sufficiently warm and waterproof.

I have a pair pretty much worn out fleece lined Columbia boots around that were my old winter go to. Surprisingly light and shrugged off the elements. They were great for the price - like $80 IIRC - and I would’ve bought them again but the style was discontinued. I think those will serve you well.
