Boot Insulation

[Jweav308]

What do you guys use for doing a lot of hiking September? And what do you recommend? I have a pair of UA Browtine 400s but can't decide if I should get a pair of uninsulated boots. My feet don't get sweaty too quick. And it would be nice to save a little money and be able to hunt deer throughout the winter with the same boots that I use for elk. But will I regret putting a couple miles on in the mountains with 400g insulated boots

I get un insulated boots and wear a light weight merino sock when it is warm. Then in the winter I just put a thicker sock on. My feet tend to stay pretty warm though and don't get cold easy.

Ok who has worn 400g insulated boots in highcountry in September and how was it?

The boots I wear when it storms our is real wet are 400s. They go great and no problems. If the temps stay below 70 not bad either. If it is dry and a fairly warm day my feet do sweat a bit in them. I always take two pair of boots with me.

Uninsulated for me as well. I prefer a lightweight hiking shoe/boot.
