Arctic Shield boot blankets

[BSK]

Got a pair for Christmas last year, but hadn't had a chance to use them. Tried them opening weekend (temps at freezing) and I never once had to scrunch up my toes to warm them back up. Have no idea how they would work down in the teens, but color me sold on them.

Just be sure to get at least one size larger than your boots.

Thanks for the tip. I was wondering about those sitting in the stand Sunday morning. The older I get the more my feet get cold it seems.

They are the only thing I have found that will keep my feet from freezing.

Always put them on as soon as you sit down. Hot hands inside with your boots will keep your feet warm in frigid temps.

I just got some this season and tried them for the first time this morning. I messed up by not putting them on as soon as I sat down and got settled. I ended up waiting several hours before putting them on. They definitely helped, but probably would've been better if I put them on after getting in the stand.

I use those but it doesn't seem to get cold enough for them anymore until much later.

Wait til you get older !

A tip if using hot hands, activate them prior to getting to your stand.

How well do these work with a saddle set up?

Same here. I've never found a pair of boots that would keep my toes warm, if it got down in the low 30's or below. But, the boot blankets work great. I've used them when it was in the teens and they worked.

Put them on as soon as you get to stand. Remember they insulate.

I also got a pair last year but have not yet needed them.

Bought them for my wife a few years ago and she loves them

Guess I have had mine for over 15 years. They do work very well.

I got gifted a pair a long time ago and haven't had to use them. I'm glad I never had a cold feet gene. Now hands on the other hand they get cold easy and fast.

For real cold Temps drop a hand warmer in the bottom of them.

Probably not great. I had a pair a long time ago, I like them but I don't think they would be great for saddle hunting. I use the grip on my boots to push around the tree off my platform. I think you'd lose that traction.

That was my thought, but never used them so was just curious

I've got them and Icebreaker boot blankets both with wool boot liners inside. Them and hot hands!!!!! If your feet get cold in means you are a corpse!!!!!

When I put mine over my boots, my feet still freeze. On really cold mornings I wear my boots in to the woods, and take them off when I get to my stand. I put my feet in just the boot blankets with a couple hand warmers. Works great.. just a bit of a pain.
