Ok so my left boot is always wet at the end of the day in sticky snow conditions. I figure it is from hot air off the clutches fanning my foot and melting the snow on my boot all the time. What boot out there are you guys finding that will stop this from happening?

Klim, I always had wet feet before but not one time since I have bought a pair. Best investment yet for my riding gear.

Personally, I don't like the way the Klim boots fit. Yes, my feet were dry, but they ached like a bugger at the end of the day. Now I wear Burton Motos, and I really like them. I feel my feet stay just as dry, and they feel good too!

Klim Radiums for me.

4 years and still great.

A litle heavy, and the toes don't fit too well in the RMK PRO's but that's ok;)

I got motorfist boots and I stay nice and dry. And they seem to hold up good. My second choice Dunlop rubber boots they are pretty sweet to!

I bought the snowmoblile boots from Marks that are waterproof as my other "snowmobile" boots were just water resistant. My buddy bought the same boots as he has a 05 summit 800 and his feet were always soaked, since getting the Denver Hayes warm and dry. They range from 70 to 150 depending if you get them on sale.

I'll second the dunlop insulated rubbers!!!!!!! I have had Klim, HMK and Burtons and they where all good, dry and warm. There all expensive and the aggressive running boards chew through the bottoms just as fast then they all get wet. you can even stand in a water hole at the truck while unloading and still have dry feet with the dunlops and you can dry the sweat out of them at night real easy!!!!

Kenny, I think your doing way to many toe drags in the wrong foot forward riding style, causing the snow to come in thru your opening of your jacket by your helmet, melting from working hard in deep snow with your doo and then running down your leg, thus giving you a warm sensation of wetness your boot, which is really caused by peeing yourself whilst playing in the deep snow like little kids. Just my thought, I could be wrong.

Well Ken, go see Vince and his staff. Sit down in his fancy chair in the warehouse and try on the various pairs of Klim. I used to wear the Swan Hills slippers (green ones from Mark's) for years but found there was not enough support (deducting that after breaking my leg). Got a pair of Adrenaline's and have never looked back. As long as they fit your foot, they are the best boot out there, IMHO. Have to go see him myself and take a leaky pair of bibs back for a water test next week.

PS With the new boards on the 2013's you won't wear out the soles kicking the snow either!

What about just putting a small piece of duct tape in the spot the water sprays from behind the belt? $1 fix instead of buying new boots.
