Some info to know before buying
When I purchased this, online reviews were only available for the lace-up version of this boot. (I only found one review on another site for the slip version, and it didn't answer any of my questions.) I was very excited to see that there was a slip-on version, as I will be very pregnant this winter and want to avoid tying any shoes. I received the boots today and am very pleased with them. What you should know is that the performance info and advice for the lace-up version are the same for the slip version. In summary: Like the lace-up boots, the slip boots are waterproof and are made to be used in temperatures as low as -25 degrees Fahrenheit and -32 degrees Celsius. Also, most people who reviewed the lace-up version recommended ordering a half size up; I followed this advice and the boots fit perfectly. I live in the Boston area, and last year I didn't have good winter boots. I've been on a quest since then to find a boot that will keep my feet warm and dry in below-freezing temps, look good, and not break the bank. So far the Ice Maiden II looks like it might be the ONE. I'm looking forward to seeing how these boots perform this winter, and I will try to remember to update this review when winter is over. :) UPDATE: I walked around outside in these boots in 5 inches of snow for about three hours today. My feet stayed warm with only one pair of wool socks on, and stayed completely dry.
