The North Face Greenland Zip II Boot - Women's
Perfect in most ways

Ranked #441 - Women's Winter Boots and Shoes
January 27, 2009
I just received these boots and they were perfect in almost every way. I walked the dog five miles through packed snow, ice and drifts and I had no problem with traction. My feet were wonderfully warm and comfortable despite the -20 temperature. However, the side zip makes for an almost ski boot feel on the shin area. There is no shin 'give' that a front closure might offer. I found that the top front of the boot had chafed my shins raw. I will, unfortunately, be returning these boots.
