Been looking for some time, my Iceman boots getting old and feeling heavier.
Decided to try, Ebay new US surplus Mukluks, primarily for the price. Took 3 days to find them at my door. New stock 9-10 medium size. I have an 8 1/2 EEEE foot, slid in my REI down/feather booties. Great fit combo, plenty wiggle room. Even more room but no slop with a set of 9mm wool boot liners. Thinking I'll ScotchGuard them and go for a hike.

Review coming after I put some snow miles on them.

Thanks for the heads up on these. Have to see about getting a pair although I'd be looking for some XL ones.

Been too warm for any woods use so far but have worn them around home and town. Came with 2 sets of wool insoles, added a pair of 9mm wool liners I had on top of them. Overall lighter and easier to put on/take off than my IceMan packs, warmer for sure probably due to lack of foot restrictions. Very comfortable and stable footing. They zip up to just below my knees (I'm altitude challenged). Hoping for cooler weather and snow to try with snowshoes. So far I'm very happy with the purchase.
