ALEADER Men's Winter Waterproof Insulated Shell Warm Inner Comfortable Outdoor Snow Boots

Here in Minnesota it's important to have boots that are warm and comfortable. I've traditionally purchased Sorel Caribou boots, and they are consistently rated at the top of the list for men's winter boots. But they cost an arm and a leg, so this year I decided to try something different. For about a fourth of the price I bought these Aleader boots and was able to test them out in snow and cold, and I've been extremely impressed. We had several inches of snow 2 weeks ago, and I wore them while shoveling. They stayed dry, even as I trounced through 12" of snow, and my feet stayed warm. This past weekend it was -20 degrees and I took a walk for 20 minutes to see if they would work...and they kept my feet warm even in those frigid temperatures. I walked about a mile, and got great traction on the ice and snow, and they felt good on my feet. I got them a half-size larger than my shoe size because I often wear 2 pair of socks when I use snow boots, and that was perfect. They are easy to get on and off, and are very comfortable. They work just as well as my Sorel boots have worked, and they are much cheaper--a great value for a great looking snow boot. I've already recommended these to my friends.

WARMTH! These were purchased for my son and he loves them! They keep his feet warm and are comfortable. He likes that they go up a decent amount on his legs. He tucks his pants in and he has no issues with snow getting in them. I have actually slipped them on to quickly run outside and they are very nice, even tho very big on me.

These are very warm and comfortable. I've worn these for 1-2 hrs to shovel snow and walk around the neighborhood in -15 to -20 temps and my feet only felt a little cool, not cold. My feet are sensitive to cold since getting frostbite years ago so I was thrilled about this. I bought a size 10 because that is what I normally wear and they are true to size when wearing heavy athletic socks with a little extra room for a little thicker outdoor/winter socks. They are also very easy to put on and take off. They are very waterproof around the foot part of the boots because they are rubber. I'm not sure about how waterproof they are above the foot part because that area is water-resistant fabric but I've not had any water penetrate the boot anywhere. I really like the Velcro straps for tightening the boots around the ankles providing for a good custom fit so the foot doesn't slide around in the heel area. And it is much easier and faster to work with than laces and zippers. The heavy duty rubber sole provides excellent foot protection and traction in show and on ice (of course, ice is still ice so slipping is still possible but these boots make it much easier to keep from slipping and falling). I would have rated them with 5 stars except the top of the boot is not big enough to easily slip my Levi's and Lee's jeans pants legs into. And the string to tighten the top against the leg does help to keep deep snow out but it does not make it as snug as I would like. I think making the top part a little bigger so pants can be more easily tucked into them and replacing that string with a Velcro strip would be a great improvements and make this a 5 star product.

Amazing winter boots that are very warm! They run true to size and easy to put on. The drawstring around the top of the boot helps keep snow out and is comfortable

Are you looking for a really thick and warm boot?? This one is awesome!! I bought this for my uncle, who is going on a trip to see the Northern lights and needs something so he can be out in that weather and I found these....they are perfect!! They are SO sturdy, very thick. The soles have some depth (as pictured) so I won't worry about him not having good traction. The inside are lined with this amazing and thick fur!! Its feels sooooo nice!! I have put a photo of the items side. You can tighten the tops to keep the cold out....which is AMAZING!!! the front has toe protection. They are durable and will last a while. The price was great for something like this....when I lived in upstate NY for a few years I paid more for bear paws which was not anything close to being as sturdy as these things. I am impressed. Easy to put on and get off. The functionality of these things are on point my friends!! If your on the fence I say go for it bc you won't be sorry!! Hope this review helps!

Want to thank the reviewer from Minnesota to help me buy these boots for my young adult sons. Ok we live in Maryland where we get limited snow. Just an up to a few inches at max (rare for a foot of snow). Both my sons are size 11 needing wide fit usually. They wore a regular sock not thick boot socks. My son says they are a good fit, still a little room but really liked the soft fur warmth inside. These boots were a deal! Looks good. Was about to buy Timberland which is over double the price of these boots. So glad I didn't. Really bought these boots so they can clean our long drive way. Would highly recommend. Bought size 11 for them not larger.

Bought as a gift to my husband and he loves them. He said the traction is great and keep his feet warm while out shoveling snow. And he no longer gets wet socks as the boots are well constructed and water has no shot getting in. They are lightweight but he did say he wished the upper part was stiffer so h could just slip his foot inside. They are a great fit and he feels these are a great value for the money.

Very warm and comfortable, a good buy. Easy to put on and take off. They doo run small but the suggested size was fine for me.

Fits great, keeps feet warm and dry in very cold snowy and rainy Canadian winters. Comfortable soles, no added insoles needed so far. Nice design and quality materials, like the slip on without laces option for winter, but the tie at top to keep snow from getting in is helpful. The bottom treads are good for slippery icy snowy conditions.

Excellent product. Very comfy and warm.

Very good product quality is great strongly recommended very warm and comfortable

These are very good boots, they're not the warmest boots I've ever had but they definitely fit the bill when it comes to day-to-day errands. I took other people's advice when buying these boots and went up an extra size. I would suggest you do the same. Overall I am very happy.

These are really nice boots. My husband was very surprised at how light they are and they definitely keep his feet warm now. Sizing was accurate. A very sharp looking boot and well worth the money.
