Kamik pac boots

[BUCKY]

I'm looking at a pair called the Greenbay. Any feedback on Kamik's? Thanks, George

I thought some of you Canadian's would have answered by now.

I like the pair of Kamiks that I have but, since I'm at work, can't tell you what model they are. They have shorter, 8-10", uppers which makes them handier for walking around.
Good boots.

Good boots. What temperature do you expect and how are you using them (ie walking, treestand, ground blind?)

[BUCKY]

Gord, I'll use them in my treestand down to about 25F then they will be in my Heater Body Suit.

I don't see that model on their website but the type I have is the all rubber with the felt liner with the steel toe. I use them to work in the woods, mostly because they're cheap (about $60.00) and warm "enough". In quotations because sometimes they're not warm enough.
And they sweat. Or at least I do in them. As long as I'm active, running the powersaw and up and down on the skidder, they're okay, but I wouldn't want to be inactive in them on cold days. Some days the liners are frozen into the boot at days end.
A welder friend claimed they were useless in the cold standing on a welding job all day. Maybe IN the heater suit, they'd be OK.
I use a rubber bottom/leather top boot with felt liner and insulated rubber bottom for the cold up here. Can't find a good pair with a steel toe or that's what I'd have.

If they are in the heater suit you should be ok. (I've found the best snow paks for me are Sorel Glaciers.) I have a pair of Kamik rubber boots with felt liners that I use here on the coast. They have been good at 25F in a tree stand but that's about as cold as it got this fall. Be sure to use good quality wool socks in them. Above all be sure to remove the felt liners and any insoles and dry out both the boots and liners every time you use them. Damp boots = cold feet.

My experience with Kamik boots  is not good.  Sure they were cheap and yes Cheap!! They are not warm they are poorly made the quality is the lowest I have ever seen they fell apart within  2 weeks.  And are not comfortable. Made in china go figure? Worst boots I ever owned.
Don't waste your money   :mad:

We use kamiks a lot for moose hunting season, early fall.  I have never had a pair fall apart and I've put a LOT of miles on all of the ones I've had.  The liners suck though, they are some kind of reclaimed fiber and really would be a lot nicer with real wool liners.  Most boots lately have gone away from real wool anyway.  Best situation would be to get the boots and buy some good liners and you'd be good to go.   I always buy them a couple sized larger so incan get extra socks into them and some hand warmers if needed.

Hope that helps
