From hiking to your favorite location to having fun with the kids after the first snowfall, finding the right winter boots helps you stay warm and dry. We offer top-of-the-line snow boots that are made to face all conditions, whether you want to prioritize water resistance, insulation, or style. For example, we have some mid-calf options with faux fur to keep you warm while outside, as well as low-cut women's winter boots for handling simple chores outside during the cold season. There are also high-top snow boots from Sorel and Muck Boots, which are perfect for hiking through snowbanks and getting to your hunting location.![]()
The primary benefit of insulated snow boots is that the thick layer of padding helps keep your feet warm, even in extremely cold situations. Depending on your needs, there are different levels of insulation. For example, if you need hiking boots, you may want a small amount of insulation, such as microfleece on the inside, as this helps maintain warmth without getting too hot inside so that you don't sweat as much. Alternatively, if you plan to remain relatively stationary outside, such as sitting in a hunting blind or taking pictures of the snowy wilderness, opt for thick insulation, like polar fleece.
As the names suggest, mountaineering and hiking boots are made with different terrains in mind. For example, mountaineering boots tend to be taller and stiffer, as this provides more support for your feet and ankles when climbing rough, rocky areas. This also allows them to be used with crampons to give you even more grip. On the other hand, hiking boots are a broad category that are more suited to hilly, muddy, and snowy areas. This means they are generally smaller and more flexible, as you don't need as much support. Then, you can opt for different sole styles to suit your needs. For snow boots, you might opt for a textured, rubber sole to give you traction when walking across and icy area. This helps you maintain grip with the ground even when hiking over cold, wet dirt.

We have a wide selection of women's winter boots from industry-leading brands, including Lowa, Royal Canadian, and Scarpa, so you're sure to find something that fits perfectly.
