I'm thinking about buying a set of over sized rubber boots and using the liners out of my Predator Extreme inside them. I want rubber boots but my feet get really cold so I think this is the only way I can make it work. Anyone try anything like this before?

Not a terrible idea but there is easier options. I just got a pair of Baffin Titans and they fit the description you have given to a tee. I know Kamik also makes a couple pair with removable liners. Not sure if they are going to be as warm as the Titans though. At $95 per pair from Amazon the Titans are also a good deal IMO.

My feet get cold as well and I have a pair of Lacrosse Alpha Burlys and love them! Put a couple toe warmers in there and my feet stay toasty all day.

Why not buy a pair of "muck" boots already insulated?

I have a pair of alpha burlys, great boots but my feet got cold last night in my 38* garage In just a half hour. I'm not kidding about getting cold feet, I have the Predator Extreme boots and they are the warmest boots I've ever had, makes my ice kings feel like wet socks. Even with the Predator Extreme my feet got cold this deer season in 30* temps. If I'm moving my feet stay good it's just when sitting still. I know what socks to wear and I bought my boots a size bigger and don't even pull the laces tight.

I don't think I'm going to find anything warmer then the Predator Extreme but I'm just looking for something in a rubber boot that easy to slip on. As far as comment on the Mucks that what I'm thinking getting in the Arctic Pro or possibly the Clam rubber boots and then still getting them big enough to slip the liners from my Predator Extreme into.

The Baffin Titan is easy to slip on, rated to -148, and has a nice little snow cuff drawstring at the top. Basically sounds like what you're looking to build out of your predator liners and muck boots combo. The boots you mentioned buying, Muck Arctic Pro, cost way over $100, and you've still got to use your own liner to make it work in really cold weather. If I were you, I'd just buy the Baffin's for around $100 with the liners in them already, built for temps well below zero without any jimmy rigging or oversizing

The Titans look like what I'm looking for!

Here's a good suggestion for everybody that is trying hard to keep their feet warm! Get some Reflectix insulation and trace outline's of your feet on it. Use a scissors to cut them out. When you put these in the bottom's of your boot's, you might be surprised by how much warmer your feet will feel. If your boot's came with a removable insole, remove it and put the Reflectix in their place. Then re-install your removable insole's. Good luck and warm tootsie's for everyone! grin1DIRTBALL wink

Thanks! That's a great idea, and I already have some laying around.

      I remember that kegel… stuff….!   just finished my post work latte as a matter of fact!  Only the second case of those I’ve ever bought.     I’d get Mike something better.

      application has been submitted. 👍   Leech......i've shot my share of bear......it be nice to get another but not the end of the world if i dont. i get to spend time with my son...its just another way to get into the woods. i've been at it since about 1976......that rush when you walk up to the bait and see the logs scattered all over and bait gone just doesnt get old for me.   i had to get rid of 1 rug because of bad tanning. i have another rug, shoulder mount and made 3 pillows from 2 different bear hides. my biggest issue has become what to do with the hide....that seems more of a trophy then the meat. i inquired 1 year at the Alex decoy show when there were a couple hide guys there and they didnt seem to interested. 🙄 i have no other ideas for the hide.......approval from the wife is not even negotiable!!!!!

      Something in May, like around Opener.  Could be white knuckles for boaters that weekend with the way things stalled out since the contest started and how thick it still is.   Highs in the 50’s coming but lows are around freezing and not a lot of wind in the extended forecast.   I’ll tell  ya what, if you change from 4/26 and it hits that date, I’ll buy ya some mythical FM beer.  And you know where you can find it. 😉. But don’t change on my account - this is still a free country!

      I caught the 10pm news the other night. They said that starting next week Minnesota will be above average for temps. I give them a 33% chance of getting that right.
