I like them, pretty breathable which is important for me. For reference, in 0 degrees I wore these with some wool boot socks and was comfortable. YMMV. However I wanted a high ankle boot that I could feel the terrain... kind of like driving a car that doesnt have as much feedback in drive feel, I feel like not being connected to the terrain with your steps is how you end up rolling an ankle. So it does not have alot of cushion, but will protect your feet well enough. No issues with them, but I do wish they were a little stiffer in the ankle, but I'm just really prone to rolled ankles.
