Ok so I'm trying to get my amazing girlfriend into riding sled. I bought her a good coat, pants, gloves, helmet, and goggles. I'm having problems find a pair of boots for her.

Her entire outfit so far is White so i'm trying to find white boots. What do you girls prefer for boots. She needs around a size 11 woman. Every company I have been looking at only goes up to around 10. I have been told that men boots have a different calf support where if she wears them it may be uncomfortable.

What do you girls recommend?

X2 on the HMK if she needs to match and have white. Men's boot, but you really don't have many options for size 11 and white.

She's going to be hard to spot on the snow isn't she?

The only boots I have ever used are sorel's or kamiks. I get them at Mark's Work Wearhouse they aren't too spendy. They keep my feet dry and warm. I tried on the HMK's not sure which model at the Sled Show in Regina last year I didn't get them but they seemed comfortable too.

Thanks Girls for the info.

We eneded up going with DC snowboarding boots. They were in the price range I wanted to spend and The color she liked so hopefully they are confertable.

Now I just need to find her a sled so I don't have to share:face-icon-small-hap
