I am sure most of us have been out for what should be a fun winter activity, only to be uncomfortable because our feet got cold. This can be miserable, perhaps even life-threatening, if you are in extreme weather conditions for an extended period.
This article will be fun to write because the boots I talk about here will be the best of the best, literally the absolute warmest women’s boots on the planet. Cold toes can be a thing of the past if you have these boots!
The first of these boots has been tested on expeditions to the north and south poles! So, let’s get into our topic today and start going over these amazing women’s boots!

1. Baffin Impact Women’s Polar Rated Winter Boot
As far as I have found, the Baffin Impact Women’s Polar Rated Winter Boot is the world’s warmest women’s winter boot. They are rated to keep you warm down to -148°F (-100°C). And it gets almost that cold on the East Antarctica Plateau, the coldest place on Earth. The polar regions are what these boots were designed for.
Tested at the North and South Poles, Baffin’s Impact boots are said to “perform flawlessly” under the most demanding conditions. The rubber on these boots is designed for the cold. They stay flexible, resilient, and cold-resistant in harsh temperatures.
The insulation is comprised of 9 different parts. They are: 1. Thermaplush™ soft, next-to-foot wicking layer for warmth, 2. B-Tek™ Foam lining for comfort, 3. Double B-Tek™ Heat a 4-channel hollow-fiber insulation for high-loft breathability, 4. Vapourized Aluminum Membrane for energy reflection, 5. PolyWool polyester wool blend for breathable warmth, 6. Hydromax™ layering for improved moisture management, 7. Diamond Net insulation for wind resistance, 8. a Waffle-comb footbed designed to trap warm air and control odor, and finally, 9. a double aluminum insole to retain body heat.
Pros:
