KamikMen's Nation Plus Boot

These boots are incredibly warm and comfortable. They're well made. I bought them for trips to ski country but I'm wearing them as I write this, not in ski country. I'm indoors even. But they're just that warm and comfortable.

Well-made, great fit, keeps feet warm and dry. This is for our son. He loves this brand. He works construction and he said these are very comfortable and well-made and really keeps his feet warm in our Wisconsin winters.

I always buy a size 12 in boots to give me extra room for winter weight socks. I have never had a size 12 not be roomy, until now. I love the boot itself, but when I tried them on with just thin cotton socks they were very tight. So, because they have everything I want in a snow boot I began the exchange process for the size 13. I will update when they arrive. So beware, normally you hear to "order one size larger", which I always do, but this time "one size larger" was still too small.Update:I exchanged the size 12 for the size 13. When I tried the 13 on it is still just as narrow as the 12 was, but it longer. Amazon will not allow me to exchange this time, so I have to do a regular return. Also, the price went up nearly $20 on these boots. They do seem like nice boots, but the only insulation is from the removable liner. And there is not enough room to add an additional foot bed felt liner. With the price increase I need to decide if these are the best boots now for what I want. But both the 12 and 13 have gone back. The 13W might do the trick.

Love these. Warm, comfortable, and water proof. The price is great compared to others that provide the same benefit. I have some foot problems and they always feel better after a walk in these.

Comfortable, warm, sturdy, good grip ... just as everyone else said, they're terrific. Best value for shoes I've had in a long time.

My foot measures 11 1/2 (shoe size) so I ordered a 12. Too tight on my toes. So I ordered a 12 1/2 and a 13. When the second order came, I tried the 13 first and it was just as tight as the 12! I pulled out the liner from a 12 and a 13 and found they were identical in size. Exactly 12 1/8" inches from heel to toe on the outside. But the 13 boot was 5/8" longer than the size 12 boot. I wasn't even going to bother trying the size 12 1/2 boots, figuring if 13 is too small, it would be pointless to try 12 1/2. But as I started writing this review and wrote "all 3 pairs had liners the same size as each other" I realized I didn't actually know that. So I stopped and pulled the liner out of the 12 1/2 pair and -- Voila! -- the liner measures 12 1/2 inches and is big enough for my feet! So, if the boot does not fit, it might be the liner that is wrong and not the boot. I recommend measuring your feet with a ruler if you have big feet like mine, add 1 1/2 and order that boot size. 11-inch long feet = 12 1/2 boot. Then make sure the liner you get matches your boot size if it does not feel right. A size 12 apparently should have a 12 1/8"-long liner and a size 12 1/2 should have a 12 1/2-inch-long liner (outside measurement). I don't know if this translates well into advice on sizes that aren't in the 12 to 13 range. But the advice that they might have put the wrong size liner in your boot is good for anyone who finds the boot does not fit. If your toes are cramped by the liner, they will get cold faster, due to poor circulation. Also, I agree with other reviewers who said there is not enough insulation below the foot. So, plan on adding an insole. Put the insole between the liner and the boot, not inside the liner. I added one with good arch support, which I need. The boot has no arch support whatsoever. After all that, it's a good boot at a good price.

After checking out several review videos online, the Kamik (Nation or Wide) was consistently a well thought of choice. Biggest complaint I heard was that the Kamik-Wide was misleading and some with wide feet were disappointed with fit and that "wide" (according to Kamik website) refers to size at top of boot, not toe space.So being cautious, I canceled my Kamik-Wide order and opted instead for a Kamik-Nation size 14 (14 was no longer available from Amazon for Wide). I have had toe rubbing causing bruising with my 1-size bigger rubber boots so went 3-sizes bigger for this order. When the boots came and I tried them on for my first walk out in the cold, I was elated at the feeling of warmth and space in the boots! It seriously felt like walking barefoot, but with protection and comfort. And no more red, cold toes from rubbing of too-small boots!!!I am, however, not pleased with the durability of the insert booties as I already see a sign of wear damage starting on one of the seems, so be sure to get an extra pair of booties as a backup if you will be relying on these to keep you warm and comfy in cold, winter conditions.

They're waterproof. That's the only reason I gave them any stars. The plastic lug mid way up the boot makes them a royal pain to lace up. When you take them off, that lug keeps the laces from looseingin so you can get your foot out. When lacing them up, the laces have to be snugged up through those lugs before moving one pair of eyelets at a time up the boot. I've never had boots that took so long to put on and take off as these. Don't believe the reviews about them being warm. They are not. I just came in from shoveling sno from my driveway. I was out 2 hours, moving constantly. It's 17 degrees out and my feet are frozen. My toes are numb. I'm soaking my feet in warm epsom salts to get the feeling back. Do not waste your money or risk frostbite with these boots.
