Anybody here own and use them for snowshoes or skiing?
I'm maybe doing that one last white season and I need new boots and much warmer boots

My feet have never got cold whilst actively skiing or snowshoeing - only when standing around for hours at the biathlon range.
IMO, if your feet feel the cold whilst skiing and snowshoeing, a VBL is probably a better option for one last season unless you have a burning desire for the purchase of new boots.
For the hut/tent I use down hut slippers from macpac and find them excellent - they do double duty in the house on the tiled floor in winter..

I can't squeeze into my old boots. Podiatrist on Monday to have my feet measured again by a professional. Even my size 47s are tight now.
My arches seem to have fallen a lot, supports may help if I can afford them.
My WM Expedition down booties are too small now and I may have to move them on, I was thinking I may be able to glue a semi rigid sole to the neoprene for camp use over a pair of LW runners.
