RE: Bought me some Alpha-Burlys...
Tried a par of 1500’s last year when it was way cold, like minus 10-20 below 0. I got hot walking in them and cold when I sat in the stand. Feet froze literally!
I would dry them out with a boot dryer, change socks when I got to my stand, nothing worked so returned them. Only way I can hunt in cold weather with rubbers is when the temps are mild, like above freezing…
Thought they were heavy also, at 5 lbs that just to heavy for a long walk, maybe the lights would have been better in this department.
I did like the form fitting ankle support though! That felt great!
