Thinsulate guide

Posted on November 12th, 2010 by craighope

This 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.
