They may have turned their attention to posing in the pub types (like Helly Hanson), but that doesn't mean that they are not capable of manufacturing equipment that many rely upon when travelling in the mountains.

was suprisingly pleasant for meandering along the lakeshore, then in town each day (no car) with only a fleece jumper & then fleece jacket - must be that famous 'dry' cold.
The lack of a biting wind (compared to my slightly drafty pennines) was a blessing.

Just got a pair of winter boots last weekend from Canadian Tire on offer at $69 (about Ā£42). Rated to -57 degrees, time will tell. The locals that I work with buy the same sort (Altra) and seem happy enough, most of our work is outdoors.

I recently bought a pair of these for winter. I'll leave those of you who live in the ice age with your fancy insulation

Thanks in advance!
Best snow boots money can buy IMHO

Why bother with all that malarkey, when a single Long-John will do?

Hopefully Santa's got a pair of me these in my size so I can negotiate the Vancouver winter.
