Funny you got cold because I use my Muck Woody Max all winter ice fishing and often it is well below zero. I haven't been cold in mine and in fact bought a pair of ladies Woody Max boots for my wife and she loves them. She always got cold feet and she says hers are toasty warm now with the Muck. I had a pair of the cabelas 2000 gram and they too were warm only problem was they were a bit bulky, heavy and lasted 14 months. I got my money back from cabelas and bought the Mucks.
