I do hvac on rooftops in Maine, it's been treacherous this year. I'll have to check these work boots out.

Ice Queen…lol. Dude, thanks for doing to leg work on compiling this great information and not slipping up to much delivering. (Pun intended). I returned to Wisconsin after my years in service. My only boots I had were my desert combat boots. Taking a stroll in the middle of winter my boots turned to blocks of ice and I ate some serious snow, only seeing my shoe laces and the sky. Luckily I was young and bounced off the ground like Gumby. But since then I realized how important the rubber compound is when buying boots. Now I have science to find out what will work best.

I have some merrel casual boots with ice fx soles and there is a night and day difference in traction on ice and snow vs normal boots. Ive had them for a few years and they are still going strong

Bought some boots with those icefx soles from helly hansen only for sale in Canada and yeah you ain't slipping and warm af

Love your videos just stumbled upon your channel and subscribed immediately. I do construction and firefighting on the side and I am a gear junkie I have thousands in tools and tons of carhartt stuff but you’re gonna help me save money by buying the right stuff. Definitely one of my new favorite channels

I think IceFX are only on Canadian Tire company (and subsidiary) stores like Canadian Tire, Mark's, Helly Hansen, etc. Easy to find in Canada, but I imagine arctic grip are easier to find abroad.

Could you do a video on the best slip resistant work boots for warehouse/ factory settings that do not involve ice/cold? Slippy due to dust, grease, painted floors, etc...

@Grandpuba1069 10 ай бұрын

That’s be hard to test, people’s gait varies so much, foot angle per downward step, etc etc etc. watching where u put your feet each step and being prepared is better than anything, if not soft soles and walking more flat footed wins in most factory settings, polished concrete, paint markings and what not

Thank you SO MUCH for this. I shelled out for a pair of nicks with the $100 polarthin insulation option as a dedicated winter boot and they are a complete and total let down as a winter boot. Looks like i will be getting a pair of hellyhansons for next year instead of a resole....

In Maine we generally favor augmenting boots with some sort of spike. Bean boots take particularly well to them, incidentally. Easy to put on and take off. They now make them with BOA systems, which would make them much easier to put on and take off. The stretch-on ones can be a bear.

Could you do a video on the warmest boots for winter. I know this video kinda touches on it but I’ve been looking for a boot, that I can wear comfortably, in single digits. Thanks

@samthesilencer 10 ай бұрын

Carl you need a nice Longines Hydroconquest GMT - L3.790.4.66.6 in root beer to go with that Oris Aquis. I can tell you're an earth tones man and that'll be a great accurate +/- 3 spd watch for travel and adventure.

How does typical PNW vibram soles do on ice? If I have a V100 builder pro, is that not good enough for ice? I felt pretty safe in winter in them shoveling going back and forth.

Your video quality is on a new level. What camera and effect are you using when recording..

Thank you! I've spent a lot of time getting it tuned in. I'm using a Canon C500 mk2 with a Sigma ART 50mm lens and a 1/8 Black Promist filter. I did a very short gear tour in my video about the best products of 2023 if you want to see it all set up.

Just buy those ice grippers to wrap around your boots. They sell them in outdoor shops.

What the stylish are wearing in the Yukon an NW Territories. No but seriously, these look like really great boots. I like the anti hardening compound and the crystal infused boots.

The Dakota 8901 winter works boots are effectively not available I’m the US unless you want to buy a beat up pair on eBay. The company who manufactures and sells them does not ship to the USA

@Grandpuba1069 10 ай бұрын

Those boots have p,eBay of real world reviews online, the tread isn’t a full compound tread unfortunately, like a cheap set of snow tires without a really good silica compound or full depth siping

Been trying to get Rose Anvil to do a winter boot series, and review the ICE FX boots. Hopefully they do so now. Nice guide, thanks for doing this Carl.
