The North Face Chilkat II Boot - Men's
Look Great but don't Perform

Ranked #940 - Men's Winter Boots and Shoes

Frankly, these boots, in my humble opinion, suck. As a Vermonter these just dont' make the grade. They are NOT waterproof. My feet are within minutes of being in the snow. They are thus, not warm either. They are great looking boots and definitley light weight which means you can wear them comfortably all day..if of course you plan on being indoors all day. They run a bit on the small side. Truly, I expected much more from North Face. The soles pealed back the rubber cracked the insdie fabric of the boots deteriorated quickly. If you live in the NorthEast, these are not the boots for you!
