it depends i think on how you like to hunt. if your going to sit on stand i dont think you can beat sno paks like sorels, but if your like me and move around a lot any good insulated walking boot should do. But make sure they fitttttt! Check them at purchase time with socks you intend on using[most guys ive seen with cold feet have boots that dont fit,too tight]a pair of those powdered hand warmers also is a good way to cheat a little, last 8-10 hrs and are small and light enough that if positioned well you wont even know their there
