Rick,

I use these during our turkey season in Arizona with temps getting down into the teens. They are not the warmest boots I’ve worn, but they are so comfortable that it’s worth the sacrifice in warmth for me. They do have a goretex liner and I think they will work for you as long as you are moving. If you’re going to be doing a lot of sitting, I’d be looking for something warmer with Thinsulate in them. Hope that helps.

Ben,
I am considering buying a pair of Uplander’s, my only concern is if they will provide enough warmth in cold temps. Elk season in Co. can get a little cold.

Ted,

Great to hear from you. I have the Renegade LL and really like them. If I had to choose between the two, I’d pick the Uplanders. They fit my needs better and offer more support. Either is a good bet though. Take care.

I love the Uplanders, but have been thinking about switching to the Renegade GTX Mids. Wondering if you’ve tried those?

Garrett,

I’m still sold on them. I’ve been real happy with both pair of Lowa’s. My Renegade LL boots get a bit more use just due to the desert hunting I do, but late season and rainy hunts the Uplanders get the job. Super comfortable.

Love the site and have added it to the blogroll. Best of luck on the new boot purchase.

Great review on the boots. How are they holding up for you? Are you still just as happy now as you were when you reviewed them? I’m looking for a new pair of boots and was considering going with Lowa, possibly the z-8’s but considering the uplander boots as well.

Thanks!
