So, I wanted something as warm as the traditional Sorrels, not as high cut as a mukluk, and without that industrial Canadian timber harvester look. I just got finished wearing these boots for 4 days in the sub-freezing, snowing, raining, red dirt hell that is the Southern Utah desert in winter - and my feet were as warm as if they were cradled in my girlfriend's cleavage. I loved the softer sole, as it didn't collect the mud in the treads that the regular meat-grinder pacs do. It was a delight not to have to drag twelve pounds of sticky red mud with each step, stop every five minutes to clean out the tread with a stick, and generally swear much more than usual.
I would recommend these to anyone looking for a non-traditional hipster winter casual boot that didn't need to occasionally strap on a crampon, wade through hip deep pow, or kick a wounded badger.

These boots have been awesome so far, but 1 design feature has prompted me to provide only 3 stars.

Overall they are warm, comfortable and look good. Great for around town, after skiing and general warmth. They seemed true to size for me.

The bad: if you ride your bike in the winter, the slit down the front of the shoe lets a nasty draft in. This freezes the ankle and can cause the whole foot to feel cold. I have liked these boots enough otherwise that I'm taking them to someone this week to have some windstopper fleece (or similar) sewn into the "gap" area. This may also prove to be an issue if you are walking through any snow over ankle high.

After my modification, i'll give a revised rating of 5-stars to myself :)

Love the boots - so comfortable - I use them as slippers (very warm) as I always have very cold feet. Easy off and on. They run pretty small so you will need 1/2 size bigger than usual.

One of the most comfortable boots I have worn and they are really warm even without socks. I wear them in below zero temps clearing snow and my feet have never got cold. Only bad thing is I haven't been able to find replacement foot beds for them.

I bought these boots to wear before and after skiing. If the snow every starts falling I think this boots will be great. Very comfortable and warm . . . remind me of my house slippers.

I was looking for a boot that was fashionable, functional, and easy to put on/take off. This is it! I'm very pleased with my purchase. They're tall enough to keep the snow out and my pants fit great over top of them. My only complaint is that the boot is almost to warm. I've found that for all day wear I need to wear a thin sock to stay comfortable.

I have not taken these boots off since I recieved them 2 weeks ago......awesome....buy a pair they r worth every penny...

Great alternative to wearing street shoes/winter boots. Not bulky but wicked comfortable! Wear them all winter. Back Country is the best place to pick up these kicks!

These toasty little buggers have become my shoveling boots, pre and apres ski boots. Extremely easy to slip on/off. The Bota Bags are high in volume, normally I wear a 10.5. I probably could have sized down to a 10 but I don't mind the extra room.
