Quality and fit
"Like the qualities seem to be a very well built boot a bit on the heavy side and the fit seems to be a little bit tight, but I’m not sure if they take some breaking in or not thinking I should’ve went with a little bit lighter boot"

"Like the qualities seem to be a very well built boot a bit on the heavy side and the fit seems to be a little bit tight, but I’m not sure if they take some breaking in or not thinking I should’ve went with a little bit lighter boot"
"Bought these boots for tree stand hunting and my back up snowmobile boots. I have worn them once to date. My initial impressions are very well constructed. I wear a 10. 5 street shoe. I bought a size 13. Typically I wear a liner sock with a heavy wool sock. That arrangement is a good fit in the boot for me. My feet are an average width (D). I have yet to sit in really cold weather so I can't comment on that just yet. The build quality is great. I don't think you'll be disappointed. I would buy again. I am 60. Thinking this will be the last pair of heavy weight boots I'll buy."
"Warm and comfortable. A slightly stiffer sole would make sidehilling a little easier. Use them for cougar hunting all winter"
"First significant field test today hiking in snow. I was surprised how comfortable the boots felt while hiking. I wore the Kenetrek ultimate liners and the Alaska socks. I knew it would be more than I needed as it was only in the 20s. Needless to say my feet were very toasty. I went up one size so I could wear this sock combination and it fit great for me. I'm looking forward to using them in colder weather."
"Durable, comfortable and warm. I usually wear size 13 in Kenetrek hiking boots but needed a size 14 in Kenetrek PAC boots."
"Love these boots! I was worried they’d be too warm, but they are incredibly good at moisture wicking and my feet don’t get sweaty! Very comfortable and great for walking/hiking!"
"This is an excellent boot for wet and cold conditions. I had to ford a stream several times to get to my downed elk and my feet stayed very dry. Teamed up with the Kenetrek Alaska socks, it’s an unbeatable combination. Thanks folks!"
"Warmest boot ever. Easy to walk in."
"I just got them so I've only worn them a couple of times. So far so good. These are a lot better than the last pair of snow boots I had."
"If your feet get cold buy these boots! I hunt western NY where the temps were low teens/single digits and these have been the only boots to keep my feet warm. I can sit in my tree stand for 4-6 hours and I they are fine. Comfortable to walk in and the size is true to form. I have wasted a lot of money on other boots and I hope this review helps you avoid that mistake."
