While there are many types of snow boots available, two of the most popular are Pac and insulated boots. Pac boots are popular because they extend up to the calves, giving you plenty of coverage when hiking through the snow. They are also water resistant because they have a rubber coating above the sole. Insulated boots are similar to Pac boots, as they provide expert protection in even the coldest temperatures. These are designed with hunters and winter hikers in mind, as they have a comfortable fit that can flex with your body when crossing rough terrain.
Most winter hiking boots use a combination of rubber, leather, and synthetic materials. This helps give them resistance to water and snow, keeping your feet dry as you trudge through drifts and over hills. For example, rubber is used around the sole to prevent water from seeping in, and leather extends upward toward the tongues of the boots for both style and comfort. Inside your cold weather boots, the lining material can vary significantly depending on your needs. For example, if you hunt from a blind, you may want fleece-lined boots that keep your feet warm, since you won't be moving as often. Alternatively, for hunting in the backcountry, a thin layer of insulation in your hiking boots helps prevent your feet from getting too hot and sweaty.
