Winter & Snow Boots - Waterproof, Fur Lined Boots

Technology & Materials Used in Winter Boots

• GORE-TEX Membranes: Many of our premium winter boots feature GORE-TEX technology, renowned for its exceptional waterproofing capabilities while maintaining breathability. This means your feet stay dry from both external moisture and internal perspiration.
• Vibram Arctic Grip: This innovative sole material provides unprecedented traction on wet ice, giving you confidence with every step. You'll find this technology in several of our high-performance winter boots, particularly those designed for outdoor activities. The Vibram Arctic Grip features a unique rubber compound that remains soft and flexible in cold temperatures, allowing for better grip on icy surfaces.
• Leather: One of the most traditional and effective materials for winter boots is leather. Thick, treated leather provides excellent protection against cold and moisture. Winter boots often use leather that's at least twice as thick as standard boots, typically 8oz or more, to ensure they can withstand harsh winter conditions. Leather is naturally water-resistant when properly treated and offers good insulation properties.
• Thinsulate: Another popular insulation material found in many winter & snow boots is Thinsulate. This synthetic fiber insulation is thin and lightweight yet highly effective at trapping heat. Boots with Thinsulate insulation often have a rating (e.g., 200g, 400g) indicating the amount of insulation used. Higher ratings provide more warmth, making them suitable for colder conditions.
