Coldpack ICE+ Mid Polar Waterproof

First the good news: the boot is very comfortable, needs very little breaking-in time and is warm (too warm for summer use). The ice Vibram sole is great and flexible under dry and wet conditions, and grips admirably under those conditions. The bad news: (and this is a deal breaker) . . . the sole will NOT grip on ice. In fact, you will slip and fall if you think they will hold, so the sole - tested in an Oslo winter (and 2018 was a cold one) - will never work for the purpose they are intended; you need studded soles or crampons for ice. Period. Also, as one other person mentioned the laces don't hold and need to constantly retied.

My boots arrived on time,and perform as advertise.I love the insulation and the Water proof feature.....I love the style and they have exceptional workmanship.....I had a rare occurrence where the metal plate behind the shoelace hole fell off...If i had to rate these boots on a scale 1-10,ten been excellent,i give it a 12...I Love It

Warm and comfortable, and much lighter weight than the "snow sneakers" sold by competitors. Easy to wear all-day, even when part of the day is spent inside. Unexpectedly difficult to put on and take off, however; they would benefit greatly from speed hooks for the laces on the top eyelets and pull-straps on the heels.

These have an amazing grip on the ice. I am waiting to see if the grip wears off after extended use of the boots.

Best boots I've ever had. The website would not let me give it 5 stars, but 5 is my Overall Rating. I live in northern Michigan, and these boots are warm on cold days, waterproof in slush, and the traction is great on icy winter sidewalks and parking lots. And to top it off, my wife says they look cool.
