Find the Right Winter Boots for Your Outdoor Activities
What does your winter adventure have in store? Are you journeying into backcountry or tossing snowballs outdoors? Find the warm winter boots that pair up with your favorite kind of cold-weather outing.
Material is essential in winter boots. Full-grain leather winter boots deliver unbeatable weather and water resistance when it counts, while rubber boots or waterproof boots are the perfect solution for trekking through mud, rain and snow. Perfect your winter wardrobe with a pair stylish suedes or sheepskin boots. Keep in mind the interior lining of your boot: Fleece, fur or faux-fur linings provide breathability, moisture management and, of course, warmth.
Step out on any slick surface with winter boots optimized for traction. Slip-resistant technology is a must-have when adventuring into the cold. Look for boots with heavily treated rubber for grip. Soles with multiple lugs keep snow from building beneath your boot. For absolute grip on treacherous terrain, look for a boot traction device, which grips packed snow so you can walk more easily on dangerous surfaces.
When selecting your winter boots, two factors are critical: Insulation and waterproofing. Winter boots designed for winter or water resistance are great for casual wear. If you'll be exposed to ice, snow or rain, step it up to waterproof boots with technologies like GORE-TEX®, which ensure maximum durability.
Customize your level of warmth with a removable boot liner. Primaloft® and Thinsulate Ultra® are excellent insulating technologies. Learn more about the level of insulation on your boot by looking at the weight in grams. The higher the weight, the more insulation is built into the boot.
