Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I generally like this product but it has a major flaw. The product is pretty easy to put on, and it does keep your feet warm in cold weather. The insulating effect is superior (and more comfortable, too) to inserting chemical toe warmers into your boot. There's also a nice side benefit, that is, the glove shields the boot buckles and top surface from snow and grime. Be sure to get the right size for your ski boot, because if you get, say, the Medium for a small boot, the boot glove will appear to fit but the front edge will slip down onto the lip of the boot. That makes it hard to clip into your bindings. The major flaw is that the cloth securing strap that goes underneath the boot wears out too quickly. This strap is positioned about under the ball of your foot, and thus makes direct contact with the ground when you walk in your boots. For a purely recreational skier who stays mostly clipped in, the strap may hold up for a sufficient time. I'm a Ski Patroller, and I have to do a fair amount of walking while wearing my boots. In my case, the straps have nearly severed from wear after only two days of use. The bottom strap needs to be made of a more durable material, and/or moved back towards the heel where it could rest in the hollow of the bottom of the boot. I added a photo which shows the front bottom strap made as installed by the manufacturer (left side of photo) , comparing it to a rubber strap I replaced it with (right side of photo). The original strap is some sort of cloth and my replacement strap is a rubber material made by a company called TOPY. I've found that the TOPY rubber strap is virtually impervious to weather and wear. If you decide to do a similar modification, be aware that I also increased the length from 4" to 4.5".
