What the title says. I'm looking for BIFL women's boots, preferably leather. They must be able to keep me warm at -30C and can handle snow/ice. I'm looking for as many brand suggestions as possible, but they must be available in Canada so I can go to the store and try them on. I prefer Chelsea style, but lace up is good too. Please no all-rubber boots like Hunter, or stuff made in China, Bangladesh, etc. I can go up to 600 CAD, but prefer somewhere in the range of 400-500 CAD. TIA!

Baffin is Canadian. Some models are made in Canada and some are not. They have a couple of Chelsea styles. A more traditional boot option is CanadaWest, which are still made in Manitoba but I personally would not find them warm enough at that temp. You might still look into them for the fall and spring though! Or if you have antifreeze for blood.
