I have two kids and i got them two different kind of boots. These ones I like. He was able to climb steep inclines with out slipped. Never complains about his feet being cold. I bought them 2 1/2 sizes bigger so hopefully he can still wear them next season. For being a that much of a bigger size I was afraid that they would squish his toes or fall off of his feet, nope. The straps are in nice positions to keep them on.

I bought these boots for my 8 year old daughter for our first ski trip to Wolf Creek in Colorado. They kept her feet warm AND dry. The temperature was between 25 and 40. She played in knee deep snow. Also, the color matched her ski apparel perfectly.

From what my daughter tells me they are very comfortable and warm. They come up high enough to block out the snow, but not too high to be obnoxious. The synch strap at the top is key and the boot gets great traction.
