Comments about Vasque Snowburban UltraDry Winter Boots - Men's:
The boots fit well to my shoe size, and broke in relatively easily. They take a bit of work to loosen the laces to remove the shoe. I also found the laces came untied regularly. I wore these everyday for six months in Helsinki, and found they kept my feet warm when I was moving. However, if the temperature dropped below 10 farenheit, or if I was standing for a long period, the soles do not offer enough insulation. After six months of daily use, one the shoelaces rubbed through and broke the webbing eyelet at the ankle. All the eyelets should be metal or just a hook.

Comments about Vasque Snowburban UltraDry Winter Boots - Men's:
I bought these boots for moderate to strenuous winter hikes where i could get by w/o snow shoes. These boots haven't let me down yet. They are warm, provide good traction, are of perfect height and even have a small ledge above the hill for micro spikes or small crampons. While these boots are not as specialized and technical as Scarpa's I am very pleased with them. I went a few times to Mt. Washington in them, took an avalanche course, and went on numerous ski trips. They haven't let me down yet.

Comments about Vasque Snowburban UltraDry Winter Boots - Men's:
A strong build and warm shoes. Feels a bit slippery and unstable on ice and snow as if there is not enough traction.

Comments about Vasque Snowburban UltraDry Winter Boots - Men's:
Although one of the other reviews referenced the boots tending large in their size, I found the opposite, and took the pair I ordered into REI to exchange.
The boots are a little challenging to pull on and off, but once on they fit comfortably. They seem warm, though in Illinois this year they haven't had much of a test. They seem to provide good traction on most surfaces and look like they'd be great in snow - but we haven't had any yet. They feel a little slippery on ice or, particularly, on sealed blacktop.
I've only had one opportunity to wear the boots for a very extended time, on a weekend campout with our Scout troop. It seemed like the boots kept my feet dry from anything external, but that my wool socks were damp from sweat when I was finally able to undress at the end of the day.
Other than that one weekend, I have used the boots for occasional wear on weekends, and I am pleased with them. They look and feel solidly constructed, and for my purposes appear to be likely to serve well for a long time.

Comfortable, nice looking. Warm and seem to be water-proof. Still not 100% if the sizing is right, may need to wear the for longer periods of time.

Boots were difficult to get on and off. Did not keep my toes warm. Hiked in them three times and feet got cold all three times. Not particularly comfortable or uncomfortable. A little stiff. Returned them to REI.
