There’s nothing that this monster boot from Kamik can’t withstand. The Icecrusher features a fully waterproof TPO molded upper with a 1000D adjustable nylon collar, a removable 13mm Zylex 2F liner, and an 11mm Zylex insole. Comfort rated for -75 degrees F/-60 degrees C. Protection and safety all in one!
Customer Reviews
Warm, Stiff, Incorrect Amazon description
These boots are tall, well insulated, and I’d agree with the other reviewer’s term “massive.” They seem well-made and with the felt liners they are actually quite comfortable to stand in. Because of their thickness, they are pretty solid/stiff around the ankles (not hard like a cast, but like dense thick rubber). It is a bit awkward walking since your ankle does not have the normal range of motion to flex in, so whether they are most appropriate for your needs depends a great deal upon whether you primarily need water and cold protection or whether flexibility and range of motion are also important concerns. Note, however, that the Amazon description for the cold rating of these boots is incorrect. The Amazon site indicates “Comfort rated for -75 degrees F/-60 degrees C,” but the paperwork with the boots (as well as the manufacturer’s website) list them as “-40 degrees F/-40 degrees C.” That’s still great, but don’t pay more for these than for Kamik’s other -40/-40 boots just because you think you’re getting more insulation. All in all, I’m very happy with them.
Solid bargain
These are nice solid boots. Warm, comfortable, and perfect for shoveling.
I only wish I’d had them last night when I was standing in a foot of frozen water due to a backed up storm drain. These are the kind of boots that will ace a challenge like that.
