LaCrosse Alphaburly Pro 18" Waterproof 1600G Insulated Hunting Boots

LaCrosse Alphaburly Pro 18" Gray Sky 1600G Hunting Boots

When the temperature drops into the negatives and the wind-chill turns the woods into an arctic environment, the LaCrosse Alphaburly Pro 1600G is your ultimate defense. This is the most heavily insulated boot in the Alphaburly Pro lineup, featuring a massive 1600G of Thinsulate™ Ultra Insulation. Designed for the most grueling late-season hunts where movement is minimal and warmth is non-negotiable, this boot carries a staggering comfort rating of -70°F to 30°F.

Constructed with Alpha Construction, these boots feature hand-laid, premium scent-free rubber over a 3.5mm neoprene core. This unique combination offers the flexibility of a traditional rubber boot with the insulating power of a winter hiker. The Active Fit system and legendary Ankle-Fit design lock your heel securely in place, while the Burly Pro outsole ensures that even in deep snow and freezing mud, your traction remains absolute.

FEATURES:

• 1600G Thinsulate™ Ultra Insulation: The highest level of thermal protection available in the series, engineered specifically for extreme cold and stationary activities like tree-stand hunting.
  
  
• Alpha Construction: Premium, scent-free natural rubber is hand-laid over a 3.5mm neoprene core for a boot that is 100% waterproof, flexible, and exceptionally durable.
  
  
• Active Fit & Ankle-Fit Technology: A specialized fit that grips the top of the foot and locks the heel into the pocket, preventing the rubbing and chafing that cause blisters.
  
  
• Burly Pro Outsole: A non-loading, self-cleaning tread pattern with chamfered edges that sheds mud and snow effortlessly, providing stability on frozen or slick terrain.
  
  
• Adjustable Rear Gusset: A durable neoprene gusset allows for a customized fit around any calf size and makes the boots significantly easier to slide on and off.
  
  
• Enhanced Air Circulation: The embossed liner creates a pathway for air to
  circulate, wicking moisture away and drying quickly to prevent "cold-clammy" feet.
  
  
• Multi-Layer Armor: Features multilayer rubber on the toe and heel, plus a double-layer vamp for increased support and protection against brush and ice.

Sizing & Fit Guide:

• Fit Profile: Active Fit (True to Size) Designed to feel like a high-performance hiker rather than a loose rubber wellie.
• Sizing Advice: If you wear a half size, most hunters find the best fit by sizing down (e.g., if you are a 10.5, order a 10) unless you plan on wearing multiple layers of heavy socks. 
• Heel Lock: Expect a snug "pop" when putting your foot in; this is the Ankle-Fit technology working to prevent heel slip.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

• Is 1600G too warm for walking?
  If you are hiking long distances in temperatures above 30°F, these boots may be too warm. They are specifically optimized for stationary hunting (standing/sitting) in extreme cold. For active hunting in milder temps, the 400G or 800G versions are recommended.
  
  
• What does "Scent-Free Rubber" mean?
  LaCrosse uses high-quality natural rubber that does not have the harsh chemical "off-gassing" smell of cheaper synthetic boots. This is critical for hunters trying to avoid detection by big game.
  
  
• Is the Gray Sky color for specific terrain?
  Gray Sky is a versatile, neutral tone that excels in late-season environments where leaves have fallen, and the landscape is dominated by grays, blacks, and snow. It is also a popular "lifestyle" color for work and general outdoor use.
  
  
• Are these boots heavy?
  At 5.5 lbs per pair, these are substantial boots. The weight is a direct result of the thick 1600G insulation and multi-layer rubber protection required to maintain a -70°F rating.
