Awesome boots

By:
November 15, 2007

I have purchased these boots for kayaking. The are great and of a high quality. I would recommend them to everyone. The only small issue that I have is that I would order the next size larger. The fit tight when you order the exact size you normally wear.
Great boots.

We are traveling via air to our destination..so wondered how

We are traveling via air to our destination..so wondered how much these weigh? (women's size 8, Men's size 12) also is the bottom also non-skid or will they leave marks? (we're sailing, and then dingying and tramping..would like one boot to serve all purposes..this looks great...)

a little wet

By:

Unfortunately my boots leaked and I will be returning them to get another pair. I'm going to give them another chance since it seems that they have worked for other people. They were comfortable so hopefully the next pair will not let my feet get wet.

I have been wearing scuba boots in my kayak, but want to move

I have been wearing scuba boots in my kayak, but want to move to something with more sole for portage, etc. I wear no socks with my scuba boots and notice the mention of socks with these NRS boots. Are socks needed, optional, or what? I think that would effect sizing, too.

Socks are purely for comfort and warmth. If you have had not problems with blisters or cold feet with your previous boots, dont wear them. If you are worried about getting blisters with these, just order half a size up and wear some thin hiking socks.

Boot Love

By:
October 17, 2008

I bought these boots because I often (always) have to steady the canoe for my wife and kids when they board. They refuse to learn how to board properly, and I just wanted to get paddling and avoid the wrath of my wife's German ancestry; so now I have these boots. They solved my problem and also happen to be super comfy. I use them when kayaking, too. They keep my feet warm and toasty, and my kids think I got them from ninjas. Well, I sort of told them that.
I found that the size tens were true to size (thought I'd sneek something useful in).

I normaly take a size 7.5shoe. I've been told to allow for

I normaly take a size 7.5shoe. I've been told to allow for heavy socks when ordering the NRS Boundary Shoe. Would I be better off with the size 9 or would the size 8 be sufficient to allow for the heavy socks? Thanks.

A 9 would be way too big. Usually you just size up by a half size to a whole size.

Solid Product

By:
September 30, 2008

Got a chance to try them this weekend and they fit and worked great. Before I received the boots I was concerned by one reviewer who suggested to get a size larger. I'm glad I didn't because my boots were actually on the loose side, which is great for when I need to slip on those wool socks. I have 17" calves and these boots were able to comfortably accommodate them plus my paddling pants tucked inside. I was actually more comfortable having these on paddling than having on my Tevas or being barefooted. Just need to remember that these boots were made for flexibility so do be cautious walking around in them during loading and portages. And Yes, they kept my lower extremities dried as promised. I had to load in about 15" of water and it was exposed to rained for my 6 hours of fishing. The best part was my feet didn't feel clammy and sweaty even with plain cotton blend sports socks on. This is a superb product from NRS, and Backcountry.com offered them at the best price I found on the net.......with free shipping to boot! Thanks guys!!!

How's the ankle support in these shoes?

How's the ankle support in these shoes?

These are designed so you can stretch out your feet and ankle to minimize fatigue and numbness, so they will not have anywhere near the ankle supports of rigid hiking boots.

Excellent High-Tech Mukluk

By:
April 24, 2008

I'll be looking to BackCountry.com for future purchases. Boots are exactly what I was looking for. They're perfect for put-in, take-out and portaging keeping my feet warm and dry. Looking forward to extending my kayaking season later into fall/winter and earlier into winter/spring. Can't go wrong with NRS products.
