KLIM and board boots
Wore the new Klim Gore Tex boot last year, like wearing a hunting boot, light and not bulky. but not much insulation on long cold day. I use toe warmers with the insert spaces in the insoles and works great. 12 hrs of total comfort. But until later spring riding, can be cold feet.
Bout second ride this year, looked at my old snowboard style boots, always warm and toasty,so wore them for a days ride, they were warm all day, and also soft gushy sole, started to appreciate more the $160 KLIM boots, hard soles on Klims, kicks the snow off running boards with less effort, harder to do that with the snowboard style bunny boots. Snowboard bulky style don't fit my size 12 comfortably on my M8 running boards. Soft soles on snowboard boots after 2 years pretty tore up from M7 running boards. Harder Klim soles look good after year.
Maybe the new KLIM boot?? Buddy riding with them, but moved up from Sorels so he's way impressed, I've tried about everything, still have them all.
While riding the sled............... still love my big old COLD WAVE motoX style boots. Big and clumbsy, but I feel about naked after riding all summer in MX boots and then in the winter wrestling twice as much iron in the low cut style boots.........KLIMS,board boots,sorels...........none perfect yet.
