The North Face Chilkat II Boot - Men's

Item #TNF6702 | 5 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Very comfortable, fairly warm

By Backcountry.com Alumni February 8, 2008

Super comfortable, in fact, which for me is unusual in a good winter boot. There was no breaking in required. I've been wearing them during my winter outdoors construction job, roofing. They being very heavy duty and hardcore, stiff enough for hard work but still comfortable, they've done me well, as well as snowshoeing. Although I must say my toes have gotten cold during the slow moments of roofing. Perhaps a slightly larger size would keep 'em warmer...but there's the trade-off with fit and warmth. In the end, though, a fantastic pair of boots. So much so that I bought a pair for a friend, a horseman. He tears these suckers up in the snowy, muddy mountain trails, tending the horses. He loves 'em.
