Klim Boots Radium or Adrenalin?

Looking to buy new boots for me and the old lady. Last year I used thermo rubber boots, they worked but need to upgrade this year Just can't decide between the two Klim boots.
Are the radium boots warmer?
Are they too big and bulky?
Any input will help thanks
 
When I bought mine last year I was dead set on getting the radiums but after talking with the salesman and trying each on I decided to go with the Adrenalines. I rode a lot last year and they did ok but I wasn't completely happy with them. If you have an 08 or newer Arctic cat your rails will detroy the soles on these boots, infact I don't know if they make a boot to hold up to these rails. I also noticed towards the end of the season that my feet were getting wet, I sent them into Klim their test did not detect any leaks but they offered to send them into Gortex and have them take a look. I ended up getting them replace about 2 months late but I have new boot so I can't really complain. All in all I would recommend the Adrenalines, I wish HMK's had gortex then I would give them a try but I hate wet feet.
 
I have had both. I liked the support of the Radiums, but they are more bulky and more expensive. Both will keep your feet dry and warm as long as you get the new GTX(gortex) models. This will be my second season on the Adrenalines.
 
this will be the third season on my adrenalins, so far over the past two seasons ive had no complaints, my feet have never got wet and stay pretty warm. the soles are gettin a bit tore up due to my snoeliminaters type running boreds being pretty aggressive but i dont think that would be different no matter what boots i had. last year i went and bought me a set of goretex hunting boots just because i liked these sled boots so much.
 
I had a pair of th radiums for the support and bought some adrenilines, the adrenilines are light and way more comfortable and was very happy with the change
 
Did you get one size larger than street shoe size on the Radiums?I,m told by some to go larger?
 
Thanks for the input I think i'm getting the adrenlines but still wondering if the radiums are much warmer? for the little woman. She gets Pink flames decals and klim boots for christmas this year.
 
My girlfriend tried on both and went with the Adrenalins. Most women won't like the fit and feel of the Radium's. Heck, most men don't either. I bet we sell almost 50 to 1 Adrenalins to Radium's.
The Radiums run almost 2 sizes small. The Adrenalines are about a 1/2 size big.
Just don't let her use a thick wool sock. She needs to wear something moisture wicking. The sooner she can get sweat away from her feet, the more comfortable she will stay. The Gore Tex will do the rest.
 
Pick me for the Adrenalins as well. This will be my third season on mine and no complaints as of yet. I stood shin deep in a stream last winter when a creek crossing blew out and not one bit of moisture at all. When this pair wears out, I'll replace them with the exact same thing.
 
I've got the Radiums. I don't like them much. They feel like your walking in ski boots. And I have high arches which makes them a PIA to get on and off! My feet were getting wet, but since I switched to motto cross socks (moisture wicking), my feet have stayed dry. I'm going for the Adrenalins this year.
 
Go with the adrenalines. The wife and I each have a pair and love them. Her feet used to always get cold when we would stop and she said they don't with these. Really lightweight and comfortable.
 
I bought a pair of adrenalines this year but have yet to try em out. I've been using my snowboard boots for years, but decided to try something a little more aggressive. My riding partner rides in high end hiking boots with gaiters and loves it but after seeing my Klims, I think he's sold now.
