These are pretty nice boots
These are pretty nice boots, I got them mainly for plowing snow and hunting. They don't get worn a whole lot but I've had them for almost 2 years now and they are still in good shape with no leaks. They are very comfortable for for a pair of rubber boots and keep my feet extremely warm even when I'm sitting in the UTV plowing snow or idle sitting in a hunting stand. They are even flexible enough for you to be able to drive in although it takes some getting used to.My pair of 12's were bigger than most size 12 boots I've had before. They are a little loose with a single pair of socks but they fit perfectly when I'm wearing a pair of normal socks with wool socks overtop, not sure if that's the way the boots are designed or it just worked out. As I've gotten older I don't do well with cold weather anymore and these boots do a great job of keeping my feet warm. Someone who handles it better might need a smaller size than they normally wear as they won't have to double up on socks and my feet slide around too much inside them without 2 layers of socks.

Great product!
This is the second pair of LaCroose boots I've owned. The first pair are still leak free and warm, but the soles are worn down to the point where they're slippery, so they're now my tractor boots. This pair is a step up from the standard boot, much warmer, and a lot more tread. The fit is good (I'm an 8 1/2 wide, so I got a size 9) and they're snug enough so my feet aren't sliding around inside the boot, but still comfortable with enough room for a heavy pair of socks. They are warm! I spent the day before Thanksgiving in a tree stand waiting for a deer and my feet were warm and comfy all day with an air temp of less than 20 F, but clearing the snow Thanksgiving morning the temp got up to about 35 F and my fee were almost too warm. So, I wouldn't advise wearing these above maybe 25 - 30 degrees (F); your feet might sweat. Other than that these are a terrific product!

Awesome for snow-blowing
Bought this as a simple slip on boot for snow-blowing and outdoor chores as a new homeowner. We sure got plenty of snow this winter (in Minnesota) and these boots did not disappoint. Plenty warm without ever feeling absolutely sweltering while moving around doing stuff temps ranging from -30 to +40 Fahrenheit. Haven't had the chance to try them while sitting style, but probably will this next deer hunting season. They're not the lightest, but they don't feel overly bulky, and are quite secure. I did add Superfeet insoles for a more customized fit with more arch support. I appreciated that they seemed to TRULY run true-to-size, with enough room to wear a good pair of wool socks.

Perfect Fit, great boot, can't go wrong with these, especially if they are used....mine were... but showed up Brand New!!
I stole these. They were listed as "Used" and I received them today and they were Brand spankin NEW!! All for the low price of $68 bucks. Geez, you can't get much better than that for a boot that is MSRP $150. Perfect fit as I where a 10 in loafers and a 9.5 in running shoe (Asics) and I ordered a size 10. They fit true to size. I live in Alabama where it only gets cold in January. When I say cold, I mean high's in the 50's and lows in the 30's and 20's. I know that is summer compared to some areas but hey, summer here is 100 degrees with 99% humidity. I'll take that any day. Anyways, back to the boots, all I really need is a thick sock and these boots are perfect. Like a columbia wool sock. Highly recommend and if you can find the ones that say used, I highly recommend those too. Can't wait to hunt in them this weekend.

Warm, dry, and sturdy, but runs large
Seeing how most people said the boots fit normally, I originally ordered an 11, thinking heavy socks would be enough to make it fit well. I was very wrong. I wear a 10.5 US and it was gigantic, so I ordered a 10, and there's still more room than I'd like. I bought some insoles because they were hurting my heels, and now they fit much better.So, now that they fit they're a nice boot. It isn't winter yet, but I can tell they're going to keep my feet warm. They are definitely water proof. I do work in wetlands and streams and they've been submerged close to their top with no leaking. The cinching strap, like everything else on the boot, runs large, so even when I cinch it all the way, it's not as tight as I'd like, so sticks and leaves still find their way into the bottom of the boot on occasion. The weight isn't too bad, considering how large the boots are, but they aren't a light boot, so keep that in mind.Overall I'd recommend these over muck masters, if you get them in your size. Definitely get one smaller, half size to one full size smaller, than you normally wear in boots.
