Review on Arctix Powder Winter Black Toddler Boys' Shoes: Superior Boots for Cold Weather by Scott Reeves

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Super nice, kept my daughter warm all day

I'm a huge fan of Arctix coats and had no idea they made shoes so I grabbed these for my 6 year old daughter. We ordered size 13 and that's what we got. They fit her perfectly and leave room for thick socks. We recently wore her all day on the ski slopes (she was tubing) and by the time we were done, the only part of her body that didn't "ache" was her legs. Her feet were still warm and dry. It had a thick sole with a nice profile that allowed her to walk on icy places without slipping. There are two ways to tighten the boot to keep snow out: a cord around the top and an ankle buckle. I don't think I've seen a pair with two adjustment points before and thought it was a bit silly at first, but it actually makes for a perfect fit. These boots are well made and I could not find any manufacturing defects.

Pros
  • Suitable for quick replacement. However, the rope for tensioning the convertible top broke the first time it was used.
Cons
  • May not be waterproof enough
