- How warm is the Revel IV Mid Polar?
- Keen rates it with 200g of insulation plus a heat-trapping layer underfoot, so it is aimed at cold winter days rather than mild weather. It is warm for walking and commuting, not for extreme cold or expedition use.
- Is it good for hiking?
- It is designed as a light hiker, so it handles packed snow, groomed trails and everyday winter walks well. It is not a stiff mountaineering boot and is not made for crampons or steep technical terrain.
- Does it grip on ice?
- Keen specifies a cold-weather rubber outsole for grip on snow and ice. Rubber stays softer in low temperatures than standard compounds, which helps traction, but no boot replaces care on slick ice.
- Is it waterproof?
- Keen describes it as a winter boot with insulation and heat-trapping materials; the listing does not state a waterproof membrane. Treat it as a warm winter boot and check the specific model's waterproofing before relying on it in wet slush.
- How does it compare with a taller winter boot?
- The mid cut gives ankle coverage with more freedom of movement than a tall pac boot. A taller boot offers more support and deeper snow protection, while this one is lighter and easier to walk in.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of Keen Revel IV Mid Polar boots. Insulation and the heat-trapping footbed layer are built into the boot.
