Are they a good daily wear boot? How heavy are they? How's the traction? Do they keep your feet warm?

They're big and heavy so depends what you're looking for in a daily wear. You can't lace them super snug so probably not amazing for walking extremely long distances.

Traction seems good, but it hasn't gotten too icey here yet, so hard to really test them. On soft snow and snow over pavement I've never had issues though.

Very warm so far (only used down to about -15 c so far though).

In general they're nice to slip on for 1 hour walks once or twice regardless of temperature.

What about size? I’m a 10.5, I feel like I’m always going to wear winter socks with them, so should I get a 11?
