For hunting or ice fishing I find it really tough to keep my feet warm in extreme temperatures, because I'm not moving around. I could wear Sorels, but I prefer my winter hikers. For $20 I got some battery powered socks and they work awesome!!! Just use them in bursts though, because otherwise you'll sweat and then you'll really freeze. Liner socks help a lot too.





Good luck hunting.
Those are heavy duty boots. I use 400 gram and they keep me toasty when temps are in the teens
To 30 degrees. This varies from person to person. Type of socks, metabolism etc. My advice is this: 1) you don't want them to be tight with your socks on. 2) If you are going to be walking a lot and sitting very little buy a pair that is the most comfortable and use some warmer pads.


If you going to be sitting in a stand buy some rubber boots with all the insulation you can stand to walk in. (1200-1800) It's better to have sweaty feet than cold feet.
I'm not exactly sure, but when it gets down to 25 or so, you'll freeze.
