I plan on paddling into late fall this year (Minnesota) and have a trip to
Upper MI coming up next month. I've been considering either NRS Boundary
Shoe or Chota Mukluk Light for the inevitable wading I'll experience in the
cold weather. I'm preparing for thirty's to high forty's for possible
temps. I have an extremely low volume kayak (Necky Chatham 16) so room for
size 11 feet is a factor also. I would appreciate any ideas on cold weather
footware. Thanks............Dano


Are you going to be wearing a dry suit? Does it have Gore-Tex/latex
socks on it? I found that when my dry suit had just ankle seals, I used
Chota Mukluks a lot. Now that I have latex socks on it, I've found that
regular neoprene boots are just as warm and less bulky.
