Warm boots for cold flying days

Please post your suggestions. I need something warm but not too bulky.

You could always go to REI and get a set of down booties, but if you bailout they are not the best for walking. Leather Dubrry boots (kind of looks like Uggs) are warm light and not too bulky. Those boots are actually sailing boots, but I have put my feet in wet (wet socks, wet boots) in winter offshore and at the end of my watch my feet, socks and boots were dry.

The glider pilot shop, sells heated insoles .

Stay warm and dry,
Jon

Instead of buying an expensive controller module, just buy the on/off switch. That is the system I use and it works very well. On/off switch:

I already have heated insoles.

Gerbing makes good stuff and backs it up! I have a jacket, gloves,
pants, and socks and have ridden my bike at 5 degrees below zero. Still,
at that temperature, my hands and feet get cold, though not my torso and
legs. I bought my gloves at a Harley dealer and liked them so much, I
bought the rest of the outfit direct from Gerbing. When my gloves
failed, Harley said they're warrantied for 90 days. I called Gerbing and
they said they'll back them up forever and promptly sent me a new pair
of gloves ($150).

The On/Off switch is all you need. I keep my automatic controller at
full power most of the time.

I have bought SkyBoots

You step in with your normal boots. They look very bulky, but they will snug well into the cockpit, you'll actaually never feel them being on. Incredibly warm.

My only question is do these boots "breath". Nylon might cause sweaty feet.

Northface Thermoball Bootie. Has enough of a sole that you can walk short distances but not too bulky to fit in the rudder pedal bays of my -29. Replace the insole with a higher quality one such as Toasty Feet.
