Once I got the right size (went with 11 although I wear size 10 shoes), I could not be more pleased. I wear them nearly every day (northwest lower Michigan is cold and snowing 3-4 months per year). Great for taking walks in the snow on hilly terrain. A nice pair of gators will get through anything. Footing is solid with nice ankle support. Arch support is solid and they keep the cold out from the bottom/snow. I wore them last weekend while standing around for 2 hours watching my kids ski in 10 degree F weather. I taped a hand warmer to the tops of my toes and my feet roasted. I could have stood around for 3 more hours.
