I picked up a pair of insualted rubber boots a month ago and if they weren't quite so bulky i would use them for football also. I love the things. We haven't hit the reeaal cold temps yet so they are still keeping my feet nice and toasty. I should have purchased Baffin boots but i cheaped out a bit on my purchase. But i agree with stubblejumper, when it really starts to get bitter out i will be using my Baffin bush boots.
