Had them 15 years, and my only complaint is the insides are no longer waterproof. Need to wipe them out so salt doesn't corrode the rubber lining

I had to up-size to the XXXL size in order to fit my size 11 1/2 Hoka Bondi 9 shoes due to the thick cushioned soles of that shoe. I have some feet problems and the least painful and most comfortable experiences I have are when I am wearing that Hoka cushioned shoe. These overshoe have allowed me to continue my daily dog walking treks in comfortable shoes.
Store owner replied: Thank for your review and for the sizing recommendation. I'm so happy you can continue to wear comfortable shoes while walking your pup!
My husband and I love these boots! They kept our feet warm + dry during our dog sledding trip to East Greenland. They’re also great for snowshoeing, as they are light. Our dog Musher loves them so much that he wanted to buy them from us, but we are gifting him a new pair so we can keep ours, too :)
Thanks finally found. All comfortable. Good luck to your business.
I bought these for my elderly father who has severe hammer toes and cannot wear standard shoes. With these boots, he is able to wear sandals inside the boots that don’t hurt his feet. They are a life saver! Highly recommend
Received my order last night (great wrapping job btw) and as you can see, they fit perfectly over my shoes & leg brace. Now I can walk outside safe, warm and dry!
NEOS overshoes. In my opinion, the best boots on the planet. This thought has been loud and clear for about 10 years now. A pair of Dakota HD3 Quad Comfort nearly took the top spot a few years ago when a pair of steel-toed boots were required for work on the railway. However, for versatility, comfort, durability, weight, ease-of-use and stylishness...NEOS takes the cake. The ability to wear indoor shoes AND the comfiest shoes ALL the time and yet head out in any conditions is amazing. Longevity and quality of workmanship is superior as this one pair has been going for 10 years and they're still in great shape. One buckle clip broke a few years ago in minus 30 degree weather and a broccoli elastic has been used to keep it together...and yet they are S T I L L the best boots. Well, it's time for a new pair. The decision to upgrade to the insulated Navigator 5 has been made. If the STABILICERS are insulated, then those will be next purchase. ps. My wife suggested a poem would be more appropriate.... "NEOS, how I love thee...let me count the ways. 10, for the ten little toes you protect on a daily bas..." But no...too much.
I bought these last year for snowmobiling and my feet were never cold again.
I work in law enforcement and I have the cleated Navigator 5. They are great as I can wear them over my boots when I need the extra warmth or traction. Only downside is I damage floors if I wear them inside. My new work boots are a little bulkier so I need to order a new pair a size up. They are an essential part of my winter kit.
This is my third pair of Neos boots and they are wonderful. I wear orthotics and with these boots I can still have the foot support of my shoes and a waterproof boot. They last for years and the city salt washes off well. I compete in many sports with my dog. In most of these training and competitive locations you can’t use outdoor shoes in the ring. This is a really hassle in the winter pulling off snow boots and putting on your competitive foot wear. With my Neos boots it is a quick change of just taking the boots off and I am ready for the ring! They are light weight and so great for taking on a plane too. All round a great winter boot.
I currently own two kinds of Neos, the Villager and the Traveller (an older version). I have owned the Traveller for several years and I love the easy on, easy off featur e. Plus they are completely waterproof and keep my pants dry. Finally, when going to church, the health club or some public venue where I don’t want to track in snow, I simply take them off and stash in a corner. I can wear whatever shoes I want for the occasion and they are protected by Neos. I bought the Villager (size medium) for my son, and when he grew, I bought a size large. I started wearing the Villager Mediums for travel because they are lighter weight and I use the Traveller version for every day use. Yesterday my parish priest saw me removing them at church and was admiring them. Today we are having a snowstorm, and he asked me where I bought my boots. I found out he didn’t have any, so I gave him the size Medium.
I would like to say a big thank you for sending me the boots as quickly as you did. I actually got them the following day and I have been wearing them everyday ever since. I love my Neo Overshoes. Never thought they would be this good. I worked outside all week in freezing temperatures in the snow, slush, rain and for as long as 13h and my feet never got cold or wet. I only wish I would've heard about the Neo Overshoes sooner. I have bought a few expensive winter work boots in the past and believe me nothing comes close. The fact that I can easily take them off and go work inside with clean boots is also super convenient. Again thank you very much. You can be sure I will be recommending Neo Overshoes and The Brown Bear to everyone.
I've been using my new Adventurer Neos for a week and I love them. I'm wearing the size large over size 9 Steger mukluks and the fit is perfect. They add very little weig ht. I'm working in the central Arctic with temperatures between -35 and -45 Celsius. Although the Steger mukluks are quite warm being outside all day at these temperatures, I do have to make sure that I'm wiggling my toes and moving around lots to stay comfortable. With the Neos over top, I find that I don't have to worry or think about keeping my toes warm. The added air space and wind protection, as well as the extra sole keeping the mukluks off the cold snow makes a big difference for my feet. The materials and workmanship of the Neos appears to be excellent. Here's a photo of the Neos in action at -43 Celsius. I'm measuring ice thickness as a first step in constructing a floating ice air strip that will allow 737 jets and Hercules aircraft to land on a lake for resupply for a gold exploration company. Thanks Neos!
I was going north to Nunavut to work and the best advice was to get a pair of Neos boots. They kept my feet warm and dry every day. Salluit in December.
We've been wearing and enjoying our non-insulated NEOS Overshoes since 2010. We've worn them comfortably for our daily walk down to even minus 10 degrees celcius! Thank you for a great product!
As you can see, when the snow comes, I am ready with my Neos. I have had these pairs for over ten years -- quick slip on, my shoes are protected and I have the perfect fit. The tred mark in the snow is a sign of confidence -- I have a good grip. I've recommended them to my friends and family -- they have not been disappointed.
For me and many of us on film production sets the neos overshoes are a must have. Being able to quickly put on Navigators or Voyagers when going from indoors to snow or rain, or being able to slip them on when working in a muddy location make them ideal in our fast paced environments. Even today it’s -22 without the wind-chill and the navigators help our toes stay warm. Currently I’m shooting The Handmaids Tale.
Most of our staff are now (Ottawa Valley Railway) using the NEOS Overshoes (two of our mechanics are shown in the picture attached) – they are great at keeping everyone safe in Winter conditions and are lightweight and very warm.
I love the overshoes by the way I get to used it on Iceland at the Diamond Beach aka Ice Beach. It was freakin awesome no water went in.
When the snow starts to fall I don't worry at all With NEOS on my feet I walk with confidence through snow and sleet.
I have to admit that I had seen the Neosovershoes on set over the past few years and at first I thought they looked a little weird. Over time I realized that your products were always worn by the happiest, warmest, best prepared, most sure footed folks in our inherently brutal environment work environment. I ordered a set and I LOVE THEM! I keep them in my truck and, just like my shell jacket and pants, they go on immediately as soon as the environment demands it. Gone are the days of slopping around in oversized, too warm then sweaty Baffins... Now I can wear great footwear of my choosing with my awesome orthotics in all weather conditions. Very nice!
After several years of use, I can say that I love my NEOS Voyager overshoes! They are rugged, easy to put on and take off, and highly effective. I use them mainly for my winter commute in bicycle. While they keep my feet warm in the cold of Quebec, they also keep them dry in rainy weather all year round. I am extremely satisfied with the product and cannot come back to my previous alternatives!
I tried NEOS Overshoes for the first time today! I went for a hike. It snowed way more than I had expected, and my feet stayed dry. I recommended them to a friend already. This is where my NEOS took me! EC manning Park, BC
I've had my NEOS Voyagers for the last 13 years. They have been amazing in the snow and in the rain, always keeping my shoes dry with the added bonus of keeping my dress pants from picking up salt stains during the winter.
I have been wearing Neo over shoes for the pass 18 years and on my second pair I will replace soon. Each winter my guitar teacher comments on practical they must be and how great they look. So this year, instead of buying him the traditional bottle of Scotch for Christmas, I bought him a pair of Neos from the Brown Bear. He was extremely happy and sent this photo along with the text “I love the overshoes”.
Neos are great for walking the dogs, they fit over my regular winter hiking boots giving me additional warmth and the height is great for trudging through deep snow. It’s like 4wd for your feet! That’s why I love my Neos! Thanks!
I am often subject to extreme weather during my days at work. Great product I bought them as overshoes for my work and now I wear them on all my cold winter outings. Warm, comfortable, amazing traction in all conditions. So light you don’t even realize you put them on.
I have been wearing Neos for about 10 years (?) up in Prudhoe Bay Alaska, as a surveyor, we are on our feet in the cold all the time. Nothing has worked better for several of us up there. We can wear a light hiker in them and not have tired feet or legs at the end of the day. Whether we're staking ice roads, drilling for ice depths, snowmobiling to remote sites or walking around in the snow, NEOS cannot be beat!
I love these boots! Can slide in my running shoes with ease, strap them in and work all day. Stomping around in deep snow and mud is a pleasure. Traction aids are huge asset to me, never had to remove the cleats but it is nice to have the option. Looking forward to getting my wife a pair.
Fits perfecly with that reliable waterproofing
fit was discussed and i was advised to get one size larger than what i anticipated and they fit just perfect thanks for the heads up and they are comfortable,warm and are not heavy like they look like they are so thank you again very pleased with my purchase and would recommend these overshoes to anyone that doesn’t want a heavy boot that is cumbersome and wants warmth 👍🏻
Navigator 5™ Glacier Trek Cleats Insulated Overshoes
Store owner replied: Thanks for taking the time to write a review. Glad they fit just right!
These are a game changer, more than doubling my time out on the ice!
Klondike GP Insulated Overshoes (for WORKBOOTS/COMBAT BOOTS ONLY)
Boots look and feel great. Unfortunetly I ordered the wrong size so I have yet to try them outside. My opinion is soley based on the look and feel of the materials not the performance. The exchange process is quick and easy so far. Im waiting on my new pair to arrive. Update to follow!
I'm headed to Ecuador for a birding trip in three weeks, during their rainy season, and my big rubber boots were too large for packing. These are perfect. The Medium was exactly right for my shoes--U.S. Women's 8 and 8 1/2. They are well made and flatten down so they'll easily fit in my daypack with my other gear. I had to pay an extra $30 because of our stupid tariff, but these were worth it. I'll try to remember to get a photo of them in use down there!
super
Great
I work in -50 to -69 winters in northern parts of Canada and my feet are always warm. Love these boots covers
Thank you for my NEOS. They were wrapped so nicely (D.H.) and are a delight to have. I wear them every day walking the woods as well as out and about all winter with grippers. I appreciate you helping me get such an effective lightweight overshoe boot.
The best solution to severe cold and deep snow.
I was very impressed with the proactive customer service outreach from the Brown Bear. Before shipping they called me to make sure that the size was correct.
