For lightweight insulated footwear, we prefer boots with all synthetic uppers and a minimum of 200 gram insulation. The Kamik Viper (introduced fall 2007) has a durable ballistic nylon upper and 200 gram Thinsulate insulation and weighs just 20 ounces per boot (manufacturer's specification for men's size 9). The Viper had been one of our favorite insulated boots based on its specifications, but our field testing gave us some second thoughts, described below.
