The Baffin Eiger is a polar-rated winter boot built for extreme cold, snow and ice, with a tall full-grain leather upper, a built-in extendable gaiter and a multi-layer inner boot system. It is rated for extended time in the coldest conditions at low to moderate activity, and Baffin says it has been proven on expeditions to both poles. It is a heavy, bulky boot made for standing around in deep cold rather than walking fast, and it costs more than most casual winter boots. Rivals like Sorel and Kamik offer lighter, more street-friendly boots, but few match the Eiger's insulation depth and gaiter coverage.

Owners of the Eiger tend to treat it as serious cold-weather gear, praising its warmth and waterproofing in deep snow and bitter temperatures. Complaints center on weight, stiffness and bulk, which make it less pleasant for everyday walking.
The Baffin EIGER is a tall men's winter boot made for extended time in extreme cold, snow and ice, where activity is low to moderate. It has been tested at both the North and South Poles. It is rated Polar Rated for cold comfort and has the most comprehensive inner boot system in the Baffin range.
The upper is full-grain leather with a nylon locking snow collar and a built-in extendable gaiter. A double Velcro strap fastens the boot, and a pull loop at the back makes it easier to put on. The upper uses B-Tek Terra materials. The base has an Arctic Rubber shell, an EVA midsole and a Polar Rubber outsole for grip in cold temperatures. The boot is snowshoe compatible and has a B-Tek Dry waterproof base.
A removable, multi-layer Comfort-Fit inner boot provides the insulation. It combines a Thermaplush next-to-foot layer, B-Tek Foam lining, Double B-Tek Heat hollow-fibre insulation, a vapourized aluminum membrane, PolyWool, Hydromax layering and Diamond Net insulation. The waffle-comb footbed traps warm air and controls odor. A double aluminum insole returns heat and reflects cold.
