im also looking for boots. Thos altimate sports look decent.....My buddy just got the skidoo ones, they did feel good and were pretty comfy. I bet they work well, they just happen to be doo.
I really like my Klim Gore-tex boots, always dry and warm. Have had HMK and Altimate and no comparison IMO.

I really like my klims

Bought my Klims last season and have been very happy with them!

I had a buddy that got the doo boots last year (I think it was last year) and the left boot was good, but the right one was not waterproof at all. he talked to the doo dealer, and found out that when the boots were being made, some of the boots never got sprayed with the water proofing chemical. He returned the doo boots and now has the klims. I'm sure this problem is fixed, but thought i would let you know, and I will be wearing the klims this year.

I have a pair of ski-doo boots and bar non they are the biggest POS I have ever had on my feet there was no way you could keep your feet dry. Klim all the way now.

Love my Adrenaline GTX boots. Have been using them since the beggining of last season and they still look like new, and have kept my feet dry and warm without the bulk to the original Klim boots.
one more vote for Klim Adrenalines, my feet have never been happier
For the money ... BATA military issue WINTER BOOT nicknamed MICKEY MOUSE BOOTS.
The whites SEEM better than the black but when using can't tell the difference. White boot is rated for colder temp over the black.
$25 for them and they work in all conditions.
You can get a couple pairs delivered for under $50.00

"Love my Adrenaline GTX boots"
I feel the same way but would like some improvements
1) the rubber bottoms shred when kicking snow off your boards, worried if I keep this up my toes will be sticking out the bottom of the boot
2) pain in the azz to tie up, morso than my hikers, logger boots or any other boot I've owned.
other then those two things I love em, they flex, they dry, no sweating in them, no stinky feet end of day or prunes for toes.
I wouldn't mind them a tad taller though and not quite so much padding on the tops. The thick padding on the top will press against my leg from riding on the tunnel and almost make a sore spot. hasn't bruised yet but I can feel it. I wouldn't mind a plastic guard on the inside of the boot that keeps the top roll on the tunnel from digging in.

With the Klims is there any trouble getting them nice and dry the next day since the liner doesn't come out??

The Adrenalines air dry really well ... but I always through mine on the boot dryer overnight

I've never gotten them wet to begin with, but a boot dryer would do the trick if you stepped in a creek or something and got water over the top. Or I suppose if you were hiking in the snow and your bibs wadded up around your knees and let snow down the tops of the boots.
I use gortex gators from cabelas, keeps everything out from the tops of the boots.

They look dumb, but work great!! I still have a pair from 10 years ago that I wear.

I have a pair of Sorrell snowmobile boots. Last year we were out and it was very cold. I was the only one who didn't have cold feet, and they are waterproof with removable liners.

Buy Whites - best boots made!
You know I agree but the perfect fit in the engine well makes up for the ugly look.
Plus when they get soaked from a creek ... poor out the water and good to go in a few minutes.
