NORTIV 8 Men's Waterproof Winter Snow Boots

Somewhat different viewpoint from someone in the southern U.S. with limited need for an insulated winter boot. Doesn't make sense for me to pay top dollar for the high-end boots, so found these with solid reviews and a favorable price. Needed them for a trip to extreme northern Sweden in February to see the Northern Lights (temps from 9-28F). Got ones half a size larger which was a perfect fit with heavy socks. Boot quality was good with no issues around the seams, eyelets or laces (as mentioned in some other reviews). Feet stayed warm for hours outside at night standing on a frozen lake and on packed snow and on a mountain top (approx. 3,800 ft.). Took two hikes (4 and 6 miles) on back-to-back days and the boots were comfortable overall, despite these being the first real wear. Some rubbing higher on the ankle, partially because I haven't worn boots in awhile. Hikes were over a mix of hard-packed and banked snow and had no issue with slipping or with moisture getting through the boot. I was a little nervous about how these would perform (the whole "you get what you pay for" concept), but these performed really well for my purposes.

Comfy and warm. Keep my feet dry, not too heavy. Fit true to size.

Great boot for the price. The fit is accurate to your normal shoe size. They are very comfortable with the stock insoles and didn't feel I needed to add comfort insoles. (I have flat feet and plantar fascitis). I have worn these boots all day in and out of stores, across the snow and ice, riding on buses, trollies, teams, walking through parks, going to restaurants in the same day and no issues with discomfort regarding the comfort aspect. They came with a second set of laces and I thought that was an indication of what to expect but after three months of heavy (everyday in the snow) use, they are still holding up. The quality of the boots is exceptional, especially for the price. I am rough on footwear and didn't expect much but am very surprised with this purchase. I bought this boot in the US to travel to Kahzakstan during the winter months. They have demonstrated durability and quality construction. They are waterproof from what I can tell and yes, I went tromping through the snow and slosh and my feet came out dry. The bad. The tops are bulky due to the insulation. This is expected but overlooked on how your pants will fit over them ...don't expect to wear you skinny jeans. The top of the toe box is rubber, it is insulated on the inside but also transfers cold. I actually ended up getting a pair of insulated insoles to put in the bottom to help insulate from the cold from the bottom. My toes did get very cold (painful cold) after a full day of snow sledding with the kiddo. The insulated insoles with three pair of socks seemed to keep it at bay. They are a bit heavy. (As expected). I wore them on the plane from Florida to Kahzakstan so I didn't get dinged on airport weight. Yes, they were hot but better than paying overweight fees. I would/will definitely purchase these boots again. I did decide to leave them for my inlaws to give to someone in need so I didn't have to bring them back strictly due to the weight.

Great boots. Warm and waterproof. They are so comfortable I've used them on a 5 Mile hike, up and down mountain terrain. The only thing that I would like to change on these boots is to have a pull loop in the back to help me get them on. The tab that they have is useless. I would definitely recommend these boots to anyone and I would buy them again when these were out.

Great fit! Lots of room, very supportive with cushioned sole. Comfortable! Warm! Nice, versatile color that compliments an array of winter gear. Good purchase!

After 3 months of use, I can see this is a very high-quality, warm, waterproof snow boots. It really does its job well in Mongolian harsh winter. It fits true to its size.

My regular size is 10.5 W and ordered 11 W to accommodate the lining. I tried the boots on but I haven't worked in these boots yet. They seem well constructed. Wearing regular woolen socks, not extra heavy ones they go on tight at the neck requiring much loosening of the laces. This is not an issue. because this is how I will wear them outside. Once on they fit well and are comfortable standing and walking around the rooms. Removing them is a bit of a chore getting past that tight neck. Perhaps they'll loosen up in time. It might be a different result for someone wearing heavy duty socks. For me they are worth the money, I'll keep them and yes, I would order them again..

The boots do keep your feet warm as described and are very comfortable to wear. The downside is that they are only waterproof up to the laces, 3-4 inches, and the soles are made of a very soft rubber. Walking through a field and stepped on some sticks and punctured 2 holes right through. If you are only wearing them into town they are good, just don't work in them.
