Mickeys...+ 1 I love mine, a little heavy but well worth the warmth and very affordable

I wear a pair of LL Bean boots that come up to mid-calf. Keep my feet dry and toasty. I love them. If it's a warmer day and I'm not wearing my ice fishing suit those boots are tall enough to keep my jeans dry when I auger out my holes with the gas auger. I know their stuff's not cheap, but a little over a hundred bucks ain't bad for warm dry feet. Got a new pair for this season. My last pair lasted 5 years, and if I didn't kick my auger and tear them last time out last season, I'd still be in them!

Ive heard Mickies are awesome but heavy and really make your feet sweat. I had a pair Rocky boots with 1200 Thinsulate and they were very warm.
Warm feet are the important so buy a good pair of boots. I know CRV went years with bad boots and was always cold.
