30338,

I've got the 8" uninsulated version - great boots. I like the bob sole - pretty quiet if your doing your part. And great foot and ankle support with the lace to the toes feature.

Get some Sno-Seal and coat them up and then set them out in the sun (less labor intensive than a hair-dryer). Repeat 2 or 3 times more times and you're good to go.
