- Are the Bangtail Mid Insulated boots fully waterproof?
- Yes. The nubuck and leather upper is built with a waterproof membrane, so rain and slush stay out. Keep the leather treated and the seams intact to maintain it.
- How warm are they for real winter?
- They have a winter textile lining and suit cold commutes, errands, and walks. They are not a rated extreme-cold boot, so pair them with warm socks for deep cold.
- Can I wear them for hiking?
- Light trails and packed snow are fine, but they lack the stiffness and deep-lug traction of a hiking or mountaineering boot. Treat them as an everyday winter boot.
- Do they run true to size?
- They follow OBOZ's usual sizing and are normal width. If you wear thick socks or have wide feet, consider going up a half size.
- What is in the box?
- One pair of boots with the factory laces. Insoles and care products are not included.
- How do they compare with a Gore-Tex winter boot?
- They cost less and are warm and waterproof, but a Gore-Tex boot breathes better on mild or active days. Choose the Bangtail for casual cold-weather wear.
- Where is the OBOZ Men's Bangtail Mid Insulated Winter Boots cheapest?
- At Zappos, for $230.00, as of our latest check.
