Add a little bleach, too.

Snakedriver said:. . . The Canadian Mukluks look quite nice, but I hear are fairly heavy. The USAF Muks are very light and extremely comfortable. During the Winter months we never took them off, even when not on flying duties. Like wearing a pair of comfy slippers around the house on a cold morning. . . .
CanadianGuy said:They actually may be useful in wet cold where standing in slush and water would be occurring. I have not seen such problems with our CF Mukluks but even they require maintenance in the field (e.g.-drying liners) or problems could occur.

Just a Sig Op said:Using my mukluks almost exclusively in a sloppy wet but still miserably cold eastern climate, breathing isn't the concern, keeping out the slush is the concern, I paint my mukluks with boot silicone on a regular basis... I've heard of people using a pair of goretex socks several sizes too big over the outside of the bootie.

The term you should be writing is warm
Agreed, just to clarify I meant the US Mickey Mouse boots may be good in slush and water-Not our mukluks unless you want trench foot.geo said:Dunno about you but I certainly would NOT trust our mucklucks in slush and water......
