FBC Boot Purchasing Guide

Finding the right pair of boots is key for comfort, performance, and durability. At FBC, we carry boots designed for outdoor adventure, cold weather, and everyday wear. Use this guide to choose the best option for your needs.

1. Determine Your Use Case

Different boots are built for different conditions. Start with where and how you’ll be using them:

• Casual Winter Wear / Easy Riding – Choose warm, waterproof boots that emphasize comfort and style.
• 
  Active Winter Fat Biking – Look for lightweight, insulated boots that work with wide platforms or clipless pedals, and have waterproof protection.
  
• 
  Backcountry / Expedition – Go for highly insulated, extreme-weather boots that prioritize warmth and waterproofing.
  
• 
  Commuting / Everyday – A versatile option with moderate insulation and all-day comfort.
  

2. Fit & Sizing

• 
  Try with your intended socks. Thicker socks may require sizing up.
  
• 
  Toe room is crucial. Cold-weather boots should allow a little extra space for circulation.
