See picture. The old boots on the right were purchased in 1978 and had finally given up the ghost. We had that big snow recently and I needed new boots. The Kamik's fit me nicely but I ordered a size higher (13 vs 12) because of my wide foot and high arch. Highly recommend and price is right.

5.0 out of 5 stars Very good boots for the cold and snow! Can't go wrong with these!
Reviewed in the United States on March 3, 2015
Size: 11 WideColor: Dark BrownVerified Purchase
Love these boots! The fit is pretty much spot on with shoe size, but I bought a half size bigger for two reasons. One, I normally wear 10.5, and they don't make these boots in half sizes. Two, the extra half size step gives me plenty of extra space for thick socks and makes it much easier to put the boots on and get them off (something that can be tricky when the boots are new and the leather is stiff).

As other reviewers have noted, these boots are very well made, waterproof around the sole, breathable, and very comfortable. I've worn them mostly for shoveling snow around the house and a couple times out for errands, and they're cozy as could be for both uses. I'd have no hesitation recommending these to anyone looking for a good boot for northern US / southern Canadian winters.

For temperatures below -10 F, you will need thick socks to stay comfortably warm in these boots, so buy a larger size than you normally wear for shoes. You should also go out of your way to wear these boots in the milder parts of winter when you first get them, to help break them in. Otherwise, it's very difficult to get pant legs tucked into the boot tops. I don't have any trouble with these boots being too warm even when the temperature is up around 40 F, but your mileage might vary.

Overall highly recommended! I have nothing bad to say about them!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great, warm winter boots!
Reviewed in the United States on November 29, 2014
Size: 8 WideColor: Dark BrownVerified Purchase
I wanted a new pair of over-the-ankle insulated boots and after trying a bunch of different brands and styles, I decided these were the best fitting, while still being a style I liked, and at a great price-point.

Overall, these seem well built and the insulation is comfortable and cozy. Finding the right fit was the biggest problem I had. I usually wear an 8 or 8.5 4E because I have wide feet. Finding a good-fitting insulated recreational snow boot made for wide feet was difficult. I found these in a local store and liked them better than anything else I had tried on, but they didn't have a size 8 in stock. I took a chance and bought them from Amazon in size 8 and they fit perfectly - and I even saved money!

I have Reynaud's, so my feet and hands get cold easily. I have worn these in 8" of snow in single-digit temps, and they seem to be quite warm. I was moderately active, not just standing around, so I can't say how these would be during periods of inactivity.

I was really hoping to find a warm, comfortable slip-on boot because I was interested in a boot for before and after skiing and I didn't want to have to mess with laces, but after trying a bunch of slip-ons, I decided none of them fit as well as lace-ups. With that said, I am experimenting with some faster lacing methods to try to get the best of both worlds.

All in all, very satisfied.

4.0 out of 5 stars The boots are comfortable and water tight so far.
Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2014

I have had Sorrels and Redwings in the past and these are as good for keeping warm as the others. I am not confident they will be as comfortable after as much walking as I did in either the Sorrels or the Redwings but the price is low enough if I have to buy two pair I will still be better off than if I had to purchase either again. And Sorrels and Redwings are not as good quality as they were when I had them in the past.

The primary complaint I have for both Redwings and Sorrels is they changed their construction and place of manufacture so you can't buy liners for older Sorrels, I have a pair of Canadian Army Sorrels I purchased in Canada thirty years ago. And Redwings are not the thick leather they used to be.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent winter boots
Reviewed in the United States on January 3, 2016
Size: 9 WideColor: Dark BrownVerified Purchase
Solid, well-built boots. I've only worn them a few times so far this winter, but it's easy to see that these are quality boots that should hold up for the long haul. My previous boots were also by Kamik, and they are still holding up, all except for the top edge of the boot started to come apart from the rest of the boot (as to be expected for boots I've prob. had for over 15 years).
As for the fit, at first they seemed a bit narrow (I have wider than normal feet). I stuffed the left boot with a towel and kept it lodged in there for a few days, and that seemed to help. The more I wear them, the better the fit for me. They keep my feet very warm, and no moisture gets in at all.
Also, the tread grip is very, very good with these boots. They are better than my older Kamiks...

Reviewed in the United States on January 27, 2017

Well constructed boots with good insulation. I live in South Florida, so I needed to purchase some boots for a skiing trip in Colorado this December. I like them. They look good and they're comfortable. We did a lot of snow based activities over the course of a week and I had no problems at all. Temperatures got down to 0 plus wind chill and I never noticed my feet being cold or uncomfortable. Note that I did wear smart wool socks during the coldest days of the trip and poly-blend socks on the other days; good socks are critical. I probably won't get a whole lot of use out of these, but I think they were a good value.

Boots are very nice, but run a half or whole size small.
If you want to return to “Al’s sporting” Logan, UT, be aware you pay the shipping and they have a long list of restocking fees, up to 50%. Clearing they want to claim they take returns, but don’t really want them.

5.0 out of 5 stars Finally!
Reviewed in Canada on November 9, 2020
Size: 9 WideColor: Dark BrownVerified Purchase
I've spent most of my adult life buying 9.5 or 10 sized footwear because of my wide toe box. It wasn't until after I spent a season in pain riding on 9.5 snowboard boots that I really decided to get my foot measured properly. 9 wide, 2E on a Brannock device. I bought a pair of Nike's in 9 wide - most comfortable shoe ever. I bought a new pair of Burton Ruler snowboard boots in 9 wide, again, the fit is perfect. I finally decided to get some new winter boots in the correct size to replace my size 10 Sorel's for shoveling and chasing the kids around.

It's so hard to find decent footwear in the correct size but I was thrilled to find these had received good ratings from other outdoors blogs/review sites. I decided to give them a try. They came in earlier today so I decided to put them on and go for a walk even though it's only -4 out right now. Wearing nothing but thin, low-cut running sock my feet were super warm! I could easily be comfortable at -15 with nothing but a super thin sock. Throw on a medium weight Merino wool sock and -25 or -30 should be no problem. Any colder than that and I'll stay in, thanks!

The fit is perfect, as well. True to size. I like the little extra room in the upper for leg movement and LOVE the fit of the boot overall. The pressure is a consistent snugness across the whole boot. Knowing the liners will pack out a little once broken in is great, but there isn't much pressure and like I said, the sides and toe box and top all have equal pressure. It's basically as good a fit as you can get really.

I've seen some reviews bemoaning the lack of waterproofing but have a question in to Kamik about recommended sprays for protecting and waterproofing further. I'm sure with a regular application it should be fine since I'm not likely to step in water with them and most moisture will just be picked up from the snow.

Having wide feet I found these fit comfortably and easy to get on or off. Kept my feet warm and dry. The finishing could be neater and will have to wait and see if experience durability issues other reviews have. But then the price doesn’t break the bank so as an infrequent snow visitor these seem to do the trick
