What models have you tried? Which is your favorite?

My fav is actually one of the youth models called the Mustang, same nice quality of the adult models but minus the sales tax xD
I have Ease as well, but don't think those are really going to hold up as well. They are packable though which is really nice and they fit in my oldschool leather shoeshoe straps easily. I am wearing a pair of the Cabin slippers and the Trail Socks right now. The slippers are pretty amazing. I thought about getting the puffy ones, but was worried about slipping on the stairs, but I am still very tempted just for hammock camping. The socks don't seem like they will last as long as my Darn Toughs, but the two pack is a good price and they have lasted for three years now, which is a hell of a lot longer than the Costco ones everyone else likes. I have two different rainboots, Meltwater and Prime. The Meltwater were super comfy, but I kinda destroyed them logging and walking on barnacles so now they are my shitty loaner pair. If you have a less rough lifestyle and maybe don't store them in your sunroom with unglazed glass I would totally recommend them! The Prime are serviceable but a bit less insulated. Hella durable though!
My husband has one of the monster bulky pairs Crossfire or Escalate maybe? He has also had some of the winter hikers like the Zone and the Enduro rainboots.
I have tried their thermals, but do not recommend. So much pilling.
