Meet our newest winter warriorsHere in Minnesota, we have intimate knowledge of how cold feet can spoil a winter day. A good pair of boots is essential equipment in these parts, so we set out to make a pair you can count on in the coldest, iciest, wettest conditions. We built our Guide Gear Nisswa Boots to meet and defeat the challenges of a North Woods winter, with rugged, waterproof nubuck leather uppers, removable wool felt liner and a reflective wool frost barrier in the soles. A steel shank and beefy, deep-lug rubber outsole complete the package, creating a snow-plowing, slush-busting, all-day-warm pair of boots that'll make you feel like the king of winter, even at 58-degrees below zero.697567_tsEveryday comfort Now, even your feet can dress in layersMore layers. More warmth. It's a simple theory, and it works. So we fortified our Nisswa Boots with multiple layers of protection from the elements, starting with a 100% waterproof rubber shell and beefy, deep-lug rubber outsole. Next, we added a 8mm reflective wool frost barrier on top of the outsole to provide an extra layer of insulation between your feet and the frozen tundra. Finally, a thick, removable multi-layer wool-felt liner with reflective properties. Four layers. One seriously warm boot.618216i3_ts100% waterproof Waterproof. Rugged.

Plus, a 100% waterproof rubber shell that protects your feet from ice slush and snow. A heavy-duty outsole with deep lugs bites into snow for sure-footed traction across wintery terrain. Waterproof seam seals and triple needle stitching where the upper meets the rubber shell bring it all together to keep you dry, comfortable and moving in the right dire
