I've got some redwings,but what drew me too these is the extreme cold wearability and being able to get back in the truck and sit and not have my feet sweat to death.........According too the description,my take anyhow....LOL....I'll let ya know.....
Got my Dunlop Purofort Plus Boots today,,,I wore them for an hour outside in a 30 degree windchill and a strong wind and thought that they felt chilly,,wrong,,,,I came in and took them off and my feet were sweatin,,not much,,just enough too feel alittle chilly..
I took them off and put my other boots on with no support or bounce in my step,if you will,,like the dunlop have,and could'nt hardly walk....LOL
I give them a big thumbs up and they dang near come up too my knee.....Nice boots

Thanks for sharing this man as I myself I'm going to get a pair of these. Did you get the orange or the green ones?
Spent last 4 years working in North Dakota. Grew up in Montana and thought I was prepared for it but it's was way colder than i expected! Here is what I recommend, get some carhart insulated overalls, and get some polypropalyne long underwear. And a good sweartshirt, the most important thing is to layer, so when you get hot you can take a layer off or vice versa. Buy some smartwool socks as well. The most important thing is staying dry and this stuff I mentioned will wick moisture away from your body as you sweat. Also make sure whichever jacket you get does a good job of breaking the wind.
The moisture of your sweat and the wind in the sub freezing temps are whats going to drop your body temp and put you in danger.
