Hi,
I spent my first winter season with my dry suit suffering from cold 
feet. My problem was getting my latex booties into some sort of boot 
with a couple of pair of socks on underneath.  My toes would be 
cramped and without being able to move about, they got cold.  And the 
men's size 10 low Chota boots were so giant on my feet that I 
couldn't walk once I got *out* of the kayak!  This fall I purchased a 
pair of the high, non-lace up Chotas and have used them a couple of 
times.  They're fantastic!  They slide easily on over the latex 
booties, even with two pair of socks on underneath. The dry suit legs 
aren't too bulky to go in either. They comfortable to paddle in. Easy 
to walk in.  Warm and dry.  Happy feet.

I have been look longingly at the Mukluks but I have never wanted to go into
a store with my dry suit on to see if the boots would go over the legs. Has
anyone done this? With the short booties my feet always get wet. Dry feet
would be nice and worth the big buck. Anyone with experience?
