Not to pick on this post, but only to use it as a spring board for a larger discussion... "hunting out West"? Does that mean New Mexico in September or Montana in November?

The original post doesn't allude to any state or month. Trying to answer the original question without specifics is kinda silly.

Here in the MT General Big Game Season I've hunted in -25*F weather. I sure as hell wouldn't want un-insulated boots in that weather.

So the answer would be, "it depends."

In general, I think an insulated boot is a smart move.
