Re: Insulated Rubber Boots For Hunting
IMHO there is not 'right' answer. Where I live in Pennsylvania I have hunted during deer season when it has been 50 and -5. Activity is import. Walking or sitting. Location you are hunting, swampy or upland? Your circulation, good or bad. I have multiple boots ranging from leather/cloth to full rubber ranging from 200gr. to 1400gr. One pair will not cover the entire range of temperatures and types of hunting. A good boot dryer is highly recommended. Only recommendation I could give is to purchase a range of boots to cover all temps, situations and terrain. Dont go cheap. Make sure they fit. Try them on wearing the type and thickness of the socks you will wear with that particular boot.

Re: Insulated Rubber Boots For Hunting
In my experience, the boot of choice of ski lift attendants in Vermont that spend hours standing on snow is Sorel Caribos. They are not the most mobile of boots but are hard to beat for warmth. Still have a pair from the 80s and replaced the thick felt liners a few years ago. Think I paid around 80 bucks for the boots back then but now see them for 120+. Great if you're in a stand but maybe not if you want to be doing a lot of walking. Treat the upper leather with Lexol and they will last a lifetime.
