BaffinHunter (Plain Toe), Men's Boots, Mid-calf Height, Available in Forest Green/Black, All-Season, Hunting & Fishing, Made in Canada

I am baffled by the reviews I read for these boots. First of all, they are fantastic. I am replacing a 20 year old pair of Lacrosse boots that were made for cold winter weather, and unlike most reviews I read, I found these to be much lighter and comfortable to walk in.But let's get to the really baffling issue here: size. At first I was convinced the majority of people commenting on how LARGE these boots are were smoking something that fogged their brains. I wear a size 11 and after reading all the reviews, I took a risk and ordered a size 10. Everyone seems convinced these boots run "3 sizes too big!" Not true. I wish I had ordered my size. The size 10 does fit, but my toe is almost right to the end, so if I put on my thick winter socks they may not fit. So I may need to send them back and order my real size after all!So where in the world are all these crazy reviews coming from saying they are HUGE??? I have a theory... these boots are made for winter, COLD winter... like ice and snow. There is a nice thick liner that goes inside the rubber boot. Yes, it is removeable. No, you are NOT supposed to wear the boots without it. One reviewer mentioned he was from SAN FRANCISCO. What the heck is anyone farther south than Michigan doing with these boots? That would be waaaaay too hot! You guys in the south have no business buying WINTER boots like this. I'm guessing people are removing the thick liner and then whining about how huge the boots are. Duh! (I'm seriously shaking my head over here.) I've included pictures of the thick liner removed. I will be buying a separate pair of NON-insulated boots for the summer months. I will not wear these boots in weather warmer than 32 degrees.Summary: These feel like very cozy, comfortable boots for a good price. They will keep your feet warm in very cold weather, although the other Baffins are rated for the coldest weather, so if you're going to subzero Alaska I would get the even warmer ones.I also included a picture of the size 10 boot next to my size 11 running shoes for comparison. See... not nearly as huge a people keep saying.Cheers!

These are GREAT. They are so comfortable, I can slosh through mud in these or walk thru town all day on hard concrete pavements. They're easy to slip on and off. The quickly removable wool liner is almost hot, it's so warm. The boots have great traction. Really a great deal so far. At the time of this writing, I've only had them for barely a month with mild use, we'll see how they hold up later with heavy use as "Cajun Nikes" when crawfishing season rolls round again.February 2018: I agree with some of the other posters, these boots seem to run a bit large. Usually I find shoes and boots much too small for my size 11 feet but if you take the wool liners out (I do because they're HOT), your feet kinda flop around in them, you have to wear really thick socks. Having said that, I still like them.

.....except through piled-up mountains of snow, broad valleys of slush, or bottomless lakes of filthy, oily, ice-cold saltwater. This is the terrain we commonly encounter in New York City during the days of "clean-up" after a snowstorm. For this, these boots are excellent. I'd also wear them in deep, fresh snow, where the thick rubber soles, warm lining insert, high tops, and drawstring closure would make it possible to tramp repeatedly up a sledding hill, for instance, while staying totally dry and warm. That's the good news.As other reviewers have noted, the bad news is that these boots run very large, and are quite bulky and heavy. I am a woman with a wide foot who can usually wear a men's size 7 Wide. Thick socks make these boots manageable, but they are really too big. Also, as a relatively small (5'2") woman, it would be very tiring to walk any distance with this kind of weight on my feet -- for me, this is not a hiking boot, though that might not be a problem for a larger person. [1 boot = 2 lbs. 3 oz.)I kept them because 7 was the smallest size offered, and because, as noted above, they seem unbeatable in this price range for the combination of warmth, TOTAL waterproofness, and the protection of a closed, high top. These are not "all-purpose" boots, but they do the job by providing complete security on the days when conditions require them. It's great to leave the house knowing that NOTHING I encounter out there can make my feet cold or wet.[In fairness, I should add that I haven't yet tested them in cold under about 20 degrees F. But the more-than-generous width would allow for plenty of thick sox in addition to the liner.]

These boots are very solid rubber.I am sure they will be tidily waterproof as desired and promised. I only give them 3 stars because they run way too big in my large size - I bought 14 for a foot that needs 13.5 or 14 in shoes without socks. Even with the liner and two pairs of thick socks they are still so loose that they slide up and down a lot. Because the heal is almost straight up and down, the boot tends to slop up and down when walking and needs muscles in the foot to keep it on. So I can't happily wear them for long periods, but I only need them occasionally for an hour or so for the price they are a great deal. Has nice warm liner that is easily removable for drying if needed. Drawstring at top can indeed help keep boot from slipping off completely if you get stuck in mud before you can pull the boot out with your foot.

Very roomy boots, normally a 14 is a good fit for me but I might even have managed with a 13. Well made and reasonably priced. In fact these were less expensive than just about every other boot I looked at.

夫の仕事用に買いました。暖かさは良いのですが、足首の所が硬くしゃがみずらく、運転中ブレーキと、アクセルを同時にふみこんで危ない目にあったとのこと。寒い中での立ち仕事には、最適。

当方サイズ２６．５ｃｍで幅広の足です。先に購入したサイズ８（２６ｃｍ）で薄手の靴下では足が遊び斜面の登り降りでは不便でした。ダメもとでサイズ７（２５ｃｍ）を購入したところピッタリ。秋の雨がちの天候で滑る山道でも簡易アイゼンとの組み合わせて快適でした。これからはこのサイズ７で使い続けようと思います。

Although in my opinion they come up larger than the Amazon shoe sizing chart would suggest I still love these boots.I bought the boots for fishing and actually feel that having slightly larger boots is an advantage.The boots are really warm and comfortable and remain nice and flexible in the cold.I'd consider these a bargain at the full price let alone at the great price I paid.

Ho appena comprato questi bellissimi Baffin Hunter con l'interno staccabile per il periodo estivo e appena arrivati ho dovuto sostituirli con un numero più piccolo. Porto il 43 e ho pensato che con una calza un pò pesante mi andasse bene il 44 ma aimè,mi sembrava di avere ai piedi due pinne da Sub..........Quindi nel caso doste comprarli comprate il vostro numero o addirittura 1/2 num in meno.
