I need to buy a pair of good boots this year. I live in Michigan and hunt in extremely cold weather. I have been using pac boots with felt liners (Lacross). Also I have used Mickey mouse boots a few times.
Now here is where I need the help. What is the deal on Thinsulate? 400 grams, 1000 grams, 2400 grams??? Obviously there are the swamp boots, pack boots, and the hicking type boots. The Rockey brand hiking boot lists 1000 grams, a nice pair of Iceman pac boots have 400 grams, even though the pack boots feel much thicker that the Rockey's. On the Sportsmans paradise website, I found a pac boot with 2400 grams and cost under $100.00.
So please give me some feedback ont thinsulate and thickness, and good and bad on the different types of boots!
