Waterproof Performance
One of the standout features of the Bogs Men's Arcata Tall Boot is its complete waterproofing. Whether you’re trudging through deep snow or walking in slushy conditions, you can trust these boots to keep your feet dry.

Eco-Friendly Design
With a BLOOM algae-based EVA footbed, the Arcata Tall Boot not only provides comfort but also contributes positively to the environment by helping to clean polluted water habitats.
Traction
The GlacialGrip outsole offers reliable traction even on icy surfaces, which is crucial when navigating winter terrains. This design element ensures you maintain your footing while performing daily activities or enjoying outdoor adventures.

User Reviews
Great boot but why the 1 month shipping. That is way to long for prime shipping
My husband loves them so far!!!
My husband was looking for a tall pair of this sort of boot. These Bogs are described as tall, but unfortunately, the Muck boots are taller. Did return them and purchased the Mucks Arctic Pro.Mucks also have 2mm thermal foam under the foot bed for added warmth and cannot find out any info from Bogs if they also have anything similar to that.
Fits perfectly.
Purchased as a Christmas gift. Received size 12 Arcata Tall boots, that were very clearly previously worn. Mud in tracks of boots, soles worn, scuffed and dirty- not from just “try on” wear. Box ripped and mud in the box. Listed as “Brand new” quality.
Comfort, fit, insulted so keeps my feet warm in the snow, easy to put on and take off and price
