    looking for some warm, even insulated boots, for riding and general outdoors stuff.
    suffer like hell from the cold on my feet and hands. and a foot what dont bend will impound this in the future.

    so something very warm and weatherproof, with a grippy, but not vibram sole.

    all idea’s greatly appreciated.

    This lot, Lancashire Sports Repairs, will put stealth rubber on any boot you fancy.

    About £40.00.

    Something nice from Altberg and a trip to Burnley?

    thanks for the link Pete. think i need something a bit more insulated than leather tho.

    i will keep on looking.
    saw some 45nrth boots, wolvehammer, would like to see a pair in the flesh and try on.
    nobody seems to stock them.

    Tony, pretty sure that Al @ Garage Bikes and Tim @ Sideways both get hold of 45Nrth.

    A good thick merino wool sock is a good starter

    Try some of the boots made by teva I had a pair (can’t remember the model) mid high they were water proof and v grippy

    Have a look at ground effects boot liner/ fleecy sock they work really well with a merino inner

    I have some Mk1 Wolvhammers, good down to minus 15-ish and probably too warm for anything in the UK except the Highlands in winter. The Mk2 isn’t quite as insulated as they have the Wolfgar which features a separate inner boot. Does have a vibram sole, but not as rigid as a mountaineering boot – walked for 100km in mine. Lake 303s are another option. Quite a few of the arctic bike racers simply use a winter outdoor boot, at least half-size up with a thicker insole and sock.

    I’ve been using snowshoe boots for fatbiking in the winter. Decathlon often have them. Insulated, waterproof.

    Hi tec make a fair amount of insulated boots, easily found on Amazon/ eBay, etc.

    I rate them because they’re a wider fit than most.

    Regattaoutlet.com is worth a look now and again.
