    I've worn might throughout the season and been just fine. When the temps get real cold I'm in my Heater Body Suit, so that adds a ton of insulation over top. Definitely helps to have something between your boots and stand platform when the temps drop.

    I've used mine for two seasons. If you are active, they are pretty good in cold weather. sitting all day, I feel they get cold, like most boots. You do have room in them for foot warmers, which is nice. They are very comfortable! They are light! I sweat in mine pretty easy so, I think that leads to cold feet. There is no liner to wick up the sweat.

    I gave them mixed reviews related to holding up. Had some initial issues with the tape on the seams (inside the boots) after only a few uses. Does not affect performance though.

    I will be looking for a decent set of pack boots for those cold below freezing hunts this year. The weight will bother me for the hike in however, I think my feet will thank me.

    I've had mine for 4 seasons now. They are leaking at the seams so I bought a pair of Alphaburly's. But before they leaked I've had good experience with them. I still wear them when I'm scouting and also when I'm walking a good distance that I won't be in deep water. BTW I have the 3.5 mm.

    As far as temps go I would say you could go into November if it's pretty mild. I'd say 30s you could stay comfortable. Now with that said you would have to take into consideration how far you are walking. The thing with these boots (and probably most rubber ones) is if you are sweaty upon getting into your stand, you're going to feel clammy and get colder faster. Also you have to consider how long of a sit. If I am sitting in temps below 30, all day I probably will upgrade to a warmer boot. Hope this helps! :tu:
