Was going to try the Impacts, good for alround winter boots, not just the fishing. But with those words of advise Sauce I will definetly be picking up the Titans for fishing.
Thanks to everyone!!
On my way out to find TItans...
Hope to see you on Simcoe this year Sauce.

Rick, You mention military M Mouse boots are they available , outside the military. If so where would you find them. Do they have a liner, think I have seen , a white pack type is that them. old243
I wear Baffin titan boots so warm and I think there like 100 bucks
I got my Titans at Home Hardware in Minden a couple of years ago. They are great. I used to always get cold feet, but not any more... and I have poor circulation in my feet.
They are available on several sites. Here's a link from Amazon. There is no liner, so they dry out quickly. They usually come in white or black.Quote:

I went with a Baffin boota couple of years ago, the Baffin Impact -148 rated, amazing boot. Never an issue with warmth or dryness. I agree with others to buy big, an extra 1/2 size depending on the socks you wear. You need lots of circulation. I also agree that they are not the best walking boots - you're not going to set any land speed records but when you're standing around for hours warm feet is a great trade off. Best price I've found is at Factory Shoe http://www.factoryshoe.ca/store/inde...26&catalogID=8
Have fun.
Get the ones with the safety toe and hand the bill into work. TADA
Just my 2c
I've had these Cabelas Predator Extreme pac boots for at least 6 years https://under-the-open-sky.com/best-ice-fishing-boots/
I think I paid $130 as they were on sale at the time. They have held up well and have always kept me warm (even with feet directly on the ice while sitting in my shelter sled). I also like the removable liner. I remove them at the end of the day to let everything air out. They are pretty big so driving with them on can be a challenge. As others have mentioned, I got one size larger then I normally wear and with a heavy sock they fit perfect. I can't stand tight boots and these are very comfortable.
Just picked up the Sorel Glacier XT's at Marks Work. 20% off. Rated for -100. $ 160 after discounts.
I get my military mickey mouse boots at army surplus stores when I 'm in the states. If you're walking your feet will sweat but stay warm. One time late season fowl hunting I broke through the shore ice filling the boots with icy cold water. My thoughts were my day is done, but I ended up hunting all day. Great for ice fishing, but I've also worn them on bitter cold deer hunts. Now as a senior I'm finding them heavy & treacherous when dealing with hilly terrain.
