Or they do have a boot with 600g of insulation. https://schnees.com/granite-600g/
I have only worn their pac boots so I don't know much about their others. :twocents:

The other option is an overboot where you hike in with the 200g boot and then slip those over if you are going to sit. My feet don't really sweat much, so I usually go with a heavier insulation. I don't sit all day in a treestand, if that is what you might do I would Google up and see how those guys deal with it.
This is what I have done. I have artic shield booties that I put over my boots for when its really cold. My feet get cold sitting very long with pretty much any set up but the booties help and I sometimes will even put handwarmers in them

I do see at least 2 models on the Crispi website with 400g insulation. https://www.crispius.com/wild-rock-gtx-boot

I also have Nevada's with 200g. And Schnees pac boots.

I run the 200g Nevada as well, and absolutely love them. I move quite a bit while hunting though. A good pair of merino socks and my feet have been fine down into the 20's. The Crispi West Rivers run 400g, I have been looking at those for a late season boot.
I would also consider Kenetrek.

I was doing a little bit of investigating on the kenetrics as well since I was trying to keep money going to a local place. I like the Crispi feed back though. I have a problem with wearing equipment out fast so quality is on my mind. 200g with a merino sock doesn’t sound bad either!
If you are going Merino Socks, look into Darn Tough :tup:

I can literally go 300-500 miles before I wear a hole and then get a new pair in the mail.
I have one light pair for the gym and early season, the light hikers for Sept - Oct and two thicker pairs for November & December.

I have tried to darn tough Socks for general hiking/backpacking. Honestly haven’t thought about them for hunting but I do like them.
Wolf dog- thanks for the tips because that’s what I was looking at (200g and good socks) and I don’t want to be miserable in those similar temps. I might just bite the bullet and get the 800 g. I don’t want to spend that kind of money and be needing better/more boot!
