Thinsulate guide
Posted on November 12th, 2010 by craighopeThis is a note to self, but what the heck… I will share it.
When hunting or doing other cold weather activities, what is the best boot and thinsulate rating to wear?
I always prefer waterproof. They make a good all around boot.
- Uninsulated to 200 grams: Not good for cold weather – these are spring-to-fall boots.
- 400 – 800 grams: Best weight for high activity in cold weather or less activity in semi-cold weather. Hiking, and other active outdoor activities.
- 1000 – 2000 grams: The best for frigid, mid-winter weather or many hours sitting motionless. Sitting in a deer stand, your feet don’t need to be cold.
