Verified claims

Dry feet through rain, sleet, and snow
These waterproof boots are built for wet weather, with a coated waterproof upper and seam-sealed construction designed to keep rain and snow from soaking through. The upper sheds rain, sleet, and snow so water beads off rather than soaking in, and if they get muddy on a trail or slushy sidewalk, a quick rinse at home cleans them up.[1,2,3]
Reliable Warmth in Damp Conditions
Use these waterproof boots to keep your feet warm even in wet environments. The THERMOBALL insulation is designed to maintain warmth and performance despite damp conditions.[2,3,4]
Mid-height waterproof hiker for wet, muddy trails
A mid-height hiker for walking terrain where rain, sleet, snow, or mud show up — the EVA waterproof uppers make water bead off, and mud can simply be rinsed away afterwards. A grip sole with a pronounced lugged outsole and lace locks help keep the boots secure on varied terrain, while a shock-absorbing EVA foam midsole cushions the ride.[1,2,3,5,6]
Features for Easy Entry and Exit
The boots include various pull points to simplify putting them on and taking them off. Fabric pull loops are visible at the rear heel and the front top of the ankle collar. Additionally, webbing loops on the back act as pull tabs, and a smaller pull is located at the tongue/top of the vamp for ease of entry.[1,6,7]
Warm, waterproof boots for cold wet winter days
The North Face Base Camp 100 boots are built for winter wear in slushy, wet conditions, with waterproof seam-sealed construction and THERMOBALL™ recycled polyester insulation that the brand says helps keep feet warm even when wet. An internal EVA shell adds protection, and a Vibram® XS Trek EVO outsole handles snowy ground. The lace-up upper is made with rugged material inspired by The North Face's Base Camp Duffel.[2,3]
Easy cleanup after muddy wear
The Base Camp 100 Waterproof Boots have EVA waterproof uppers that keep rain, sleet and snow from soaking in. When the boots come home caked in mud, cleanup is simple — just give them a rinse.[1]
