Advice on Baffin boots
Here are a few options to decide from. [https://www.outdoorgearlab.com/topics/shoes-and-boots/best-winter-boots-womens](https://www.outdoorgearlab.com/topics/shoes-and-boots/best-winter-boots-womens) I personally have the men's version of NorthFace Chalkat V400, and love them for ankle and shin deep snow.

Boots for winter and wet weather?
I have these [Northface Chilkat](https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/p/mens/mens-footwear/mens-boots-695280/mens-chilkat-v-400-waterproof-boots-NF0A5LVZ) for walking in heavy snow. They are super warm, but a bit heavy and restrictive. You can probably get the shorter version of them like [this](https://www.thenorthface.com/en-us/p/mens/mens-footwear/mens-boots-695280/mens-chilkat-v-lace-waterproof-boots-NF0A5LW3?color=KT0&size=075) and they should work well. Previously I had these Columbia [Newton Ridge waterproof boots](https://www.columbia.com/p/mens-newton-ridge-hiking-boot-1594731.html?color=014), which lasted me 5 years of daily use in rain, snow, slush and the general grime of NYC streets.

What are the warmest winter boots you've ever owned? Looking for recommendations
Weirdly hard to buy. Even at the flagship REI, nearly all of their "wonder" boots had no insulation over the foot. I settled in North Face Chillkat V. They have 400 gram "Heatseeker" insulation, which I'm hoping is similar to Thinsulate, over the foot. Under the foot there's the regular EVA foam, insoles, etc. I'd tried the 200 gram Keen Targhee boots (not Targhee II or III; I believe they're discontinued) but they had no insulation I could detect over the foot. The Kamik Nationplus had no insulation UNDER the foot (nor any cushioning, shank, midsole or any other structure).
