What are the best insulated boots or shoes? What should I look for in an insulated shoe?
Insulation comes in different levels of protection just like it does in sleeping bags. Picking the best level of insulation depends on the activity and temperature the shoe is going to be used for. For example, in Seattle, where there’s a lot of rain but not a lot of snow, adding a pair of SmartWool socks to any water-resistant boot does the trick. However, somewhere in New England that gets tons of snow, a higher gram Thinsulate, such as 200, might be better when the temp drops below freezing.
