Features

The manufacturer gives the boots a comfort rating of -40 degrees Celsius (-40ºF). These ratings are, of course, very subjective and depend on your feet. In any case, they are suited for very cold weather.

The rubber outsole tread pattern is called All-terrain Gripper 2.0™, but it is enhanced with the Lynx ice-Grip+ elements designed for snowy conditions. It gives you a very good grip in snow, but the boots are still comfortable to walk in for long distances. It has added width for stability and to fit thick socks. A thermoplastic polyurethane midsole absorbs shocks and insulates against cold without making the boot feel stiff.

The upper is made from a very strong vulcanized natural rubber compound known as G1^® 70. There is also an extra reinforcement at the top edge. The boot has a 5 mm neoprene lining together with a 2 mm G1 Air spacer that circulates the air in the boot preventing condensation. The specially developed Coil lining™ fabric transports moisture effectively away from the foot and leg during sweaty activities.

 These are quite lightweight for being winter boots; one boot only weighs c. 1,150 g (size 43). Made in China.
