Default RE: Boot Blankets

ORIGINAL: dtk913

Has anyone ever used them. I do a lot of treestand hunting and need something that will keep my feet warm. I have tried a lot of different cold weather boots and I think most of them are ripoffs. I am wondering if the boot blankets and a normal 400-800 grams of thinsulate pair of boots would be a better way to go.

dan, i carry extra socks.

when walking in to my spot i put on light pair of socks and bag over my socks.

this keeps your inside boot from getting wet.

i take off my socks and put on fresh wool socks.

then BOOT BLANKETS OVER TOP.

if your feet get wet from sweat, no way boot blankets will work.so, carry in fresh socks,then they will work.

those 1600 boots you talk about are about only boot that will keep your feet warm.

forget leather boots.

change those socks when you sit down to hunt and your feet will stay warm.
