Great pics, Mac. I went out into the blizzard today with the old Ratmandu. ![[Linked Image from i173.photobucket.com]](http://i173.photobucket.com/albums/w64/rivershaman/SRKW/RMD006.jpg)
Horned, dangerous, and off my medication.

heavy shoes make me wnat to never walk again! like I'd rather crawl with my eyelids that walk with big heavy boots. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Try some Mickey Mouse boots. That's what I wear in the winter. They're REALLY heavy. Especially the big 'uns I wear. (14 Extra Wide) They'll really give your legs a workout. They're very warm though. I have high blood pressure, and that makes your fingers, toes, and ears get cold easily, but no matter how cold it's been, those boots always kept me warm.

Why Nick, I have never had problems with them. I just did a google search and found quite a few posts by angry customers...

Well I have never made an order over $100 from them and havent had problems.
but $30 compared to the $100 I paid is a steal even if it doesnt get there quick

I am surprized you haven't had problems with them.
They accually have terrible customer service.
I could not contact them for the life of me when They never shipped something I ordered.
I ended up cancelling my order.
After I ordered from them I found out I shouldn't have just by telling people where I ordered my knife from.

I've got a pair of Danner "Ft. Lewis" model winter boots - and i had some Rockies I think (same boot - built a little cheaper - Army cold weather issue). I had some Mickey Mouse boots issued - but never wore them. You'll sweat your feet off in them - they don't breathe! I suggest a good pair of goretex lined winter booths with booties (2 pairs of booties, swap them out when one pair gets sweaty) and some good wool socks. Wicking is the key - just like the poly pros - same with your boots. Cotton kills! <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif" alt="" /> Wool and Fiber-pile Poly are the way to go.
