Baffin Icefield Women's Boots vs Baffin Yellowknife Snow Boot

The Icefield is the warmer, more technical boot: rated to -148°F with a removable multi-layer inner boot and a tall 12-inch nylon shaft. The Yellowknife is a lighter, simpler leather-and-suede snow boot with a laced closure and normal D width. Buy the Icefield for deep cold, standing around, or snow-covered ground; buy the Yellowknife for everyday winter wear where bulk and weight matter more than extreme ratings. Owners of the Icefield line praise the warmth and grippy Polar rubber outsole but note the weight and stiff break-in.

• Choose the Icefield if you face deep cold, long periods outdoors, or snow and ice where a tall waterproof shaft and a removable liner matter.
• Choose the Yellowknife if you want a lighter, normal-width leather snow boot for commuting and everyday winter wear.
