Vasque Men's Lost 40 Snow Boot

Ordered the same size on a hunch (and for a now removed discount) which this person fits in his other Vasque products (which is a wide size, as well). The Lost 40 fits just larger than my equivalent sized Vasque product. Replaced the stock insole with wool super-feet, and yet may slip in wearing a heavy smartwool sock with the boot fully loosened. Have not walked more than a mile in them yet, or tightened the fit at all. Mukluk. Decent grip on ice. LIGHTWEIGHT. Foot does not warm up a cold boot without body movement.Wanted these primarily to operate vehicles during sub freezing temps, when having too much boot would be dangerous. Toe profile is excellent. Thought a stick punctured the softshell from my own weight while walking, but not a mark was in left shedding it. The shell is a very dense weave.

I've wanted a pair of mukluks for awhile. These seemed to fit the bill. They are a little tight putting on, but the fit is solid. I've used Sorels for years, and I love them; however for a long winter hike, they're a bit too heavy. I see these as a good winter camp shoe, but not so good with snowshoes. Im trying them out in the Adirondacks in a couple weeks.

I live in Maine, and the boots are very warm for short times outside, <2 hours. Waterproofing has been adequate for shoveling snow; no leaks, no soaking through.The problem is the drop from heel to toe of the mid-sole. The heel is high enough that the drop to toe is steep. It's so steep it's like a wedge. It's a problem for me with a bad back.

Love the boots so far. They do run small- I ended up with boots one size larger than my normal shoe size. I too found them difficult to put on. Solved the problem by wearing just a pair of silk sock liners instead of regular boot socks. The boots are so warm it doesn't make a difference, even here in Wisconsin. I also removed the lace sliders from the lower laces. It does mean I need to tie two sets of laces on each boot and it shouldn't even make a difference but it seems to. My boots go on easily now.

Boots do run somewhat small as others have stated , what I did is use a street sock instead of a athletic or a thick sock . Went hiking on Mt Rainer and they were a dream dry and warm feet all day very comfortable can't ask for more than that !

Light weight, sturdy, no slip- by far best winter snow boots I’ve ever worn. Best fit for slender calf’s as it’s a high boot.

I am a size 10.5. The boots were 11.5. I could not even get them on. The boot tops are too tight to allow your foot to get into it. Even with the laces removed I could not get my foot into these. Not that they were too tight when I got them on, I could not get my foot to slide into these boots.

After reading the reviews of others, I bought a pair that was roughly one size larger than my normal shoe size and it seems like a perfect fit with room for a wool sock.

Ankle was to small, extremely difficult to get your foot past that point.
