1 Year Update
Just had a blizzard come through Denver this week, dumping 2+ feet of snow with 4 foot drifts. Put on the boots to go shovel the drive way now that the sun is out and boots kept my feet dry and warm. Snow was slushy and wet and lots of ankle deep puddles in spots. Boots never leaked. Trudged through the snow to my daughter's house down the street during the peak of the storm, boots held up great. So, very happy with the purchase and will be ordering a 2nd pair for my wife.
UPDATE:
So, I have had these boots for several weeks now and had another snowstorm blow in so I've had more chance to test them further. These boots are working out great. Went to the mountains the other day to take my granddaughter skiing (she's 4). It was snowing on/off throughout the day and was 8 degrees outside. I was wearing the boots and carrying my granddaughter up the hill and then helping her keep her balance as she skied back down (over and over) and my feet never got cold at all. I have spent time shoveling my driveway and trudging through a foot of snow and again, never got cold feet. Boots are easy to put on and take off and fit is pretty good. I do wear an 8.5 and the size 8 fit pretty well even with thick socks. Very pleased with purchase. Only critique I might have is that where there was ice on my driveway, they would slip but I would expect that of any footwear without hard spikes in them.
Original review below -
While I only got these yesterday, I haven't had a chance to really put them through their paces. However, we got about 18" of snow the day before so I still have really deep snow in my front and back yard as well as piled on my driveway. I put them on last night and walked around in the deep snow for about 20 mins and my feet stayed warm and dry. Outside temp at the time was 13 degrees F. Then today, I went and shoveled my driveway for about 1.5 hours, it was overcast with sun starting to poke through and temps was in the low to mid 30s. Again, feet stayed warm and drive. I did have some ice build up on my driveway and it was slippery and the boots did not help much with that but I wouldn't expect it to either. As for fit, for the most part it is pretty good. I wear and mens 8.5 (US) and ordered the size 8 and they fit good. There is room in the toe and the boots fit well throughout. However, it is a bit snug around the forefoot. Also, the pull string to snug up works great but when you snug them up, you have to tuck the laces so as to not trip on them. The inner liner works well to keep you warm even though they are not fuzzy/fur lined like other boots. I do feel like the boot could use a little more padding on the foot as it does feel a little hard. I will be adding an insert to help add cushion. Overall, I like these boots and would order again based upon what I am seeing now. However, we will see how they hold up as winter is only just starting. I will update if my opinion changes (for better or worse). In the meantime, thumbs up for sure.

Decent Snow boot
I was looking for a boot to replace my 33 year old Sorel type of boot that the inner liner is wearing thin and the boot was just getting harder to put on. This Kamik is loose and wide enough that my foot glides in smoothly even with a thick tube sock. That’s comforting for me because I have stiff toe joints from arthritis. The toe box is wide but not too wide so your foot doesn’t “swim” in the front. I would like a better arch support but I’m guessing I can either make do without or put one of those sport arch supports in later. I do like the bungee type of “lace” tightening at the bottom that runs up the front of the boot along the foot. There is also a cord at the top rim to tighten to keep out the snow. You just have to figure out what to do with the extra length from the bottom and top cords. I just tie the two together. I’ve just been snowblowing, shoveling in 8 to 15 “inches of snow and have had no problems with snow getting down the boot. Oh I wear jeans tucked into the boot. I live in Valley City, ND where we have had -20 f with wind chills of - 35 and the boots are warm. However I’m not crazy enough to stay out that long cause my eyeballs freeze. I like seeing. I wouldn’t go on long hikes in the snow only because the heal of the foot does lift inside the boot but I think if I got one size smaller they would be tight. Trekking in the snow, playing with the kids and dog, shoveling I think these are great boots because they’re not made in China! I have a small size 8 in shoes, sneakers and I ordered an 8 so they will be fine. Update Dec 2022 Love these boots. So easy to get on. Keeps snow out, not heavy, decent grip on bottom. I was on my roof clearing snow away from vents and had good grip on the snow. The roof pitch isn’t very steep, like a ranch style home. I just wish they could include an extra pair of stretch cords for the boots because I’m sure over time they could loose their elasticity to not tighten but we shall see. I highly recommend them.
