Product Overview
The boot that started it all. For over 40 years, our Hunter II has set the bar for cold-weather performance in deep snow, frozen fields, and rugged winter backcountry. Trusted by generations of serious hunters, ranchers, and outdoorsmen, it’s built to deliver unmatched warmth, durability, and reliability when winter hits hardest. Rigorously tested, season after season, by generations of serious outdoorsmen. It is designed and built to our exacting standards to exceed the expectations of the world’s most demanding hunters.
At its core is the venerable Schnee construction. A handcrafted combination of hand-selected 6 oz. oil-tanned American steerhide uppers and premium imported vulcanized rubber bottoms.

Caring For Your New Pac Boots
We recommend using Pitch Blend Beeswax leather dressing on our Pac Boots at least twice a year: Once prior to your hunting season and once again before storing the boots before the off-season. This leather dressing is an especially protective conditioning balm with the very highest water-repellency. Reapply as needed throughout the year especially if you have been hunting in wet conditions in order to keep the leather nourished and protected.
Once you’ve confirmed that the pac boots fit your feet, apply an all natural leather conditioner or oil to help soften the leather uppers and start achieving a personalized, glove-like fit and feel that’s uniquely yours. We recommend using Pitch Blend Oil for maintaining and preserving the leather of your boots. Reapply this oil as needed throughout the life of the boots, especially as the leather begins to dry out or stiffen over time.
Sizing
Our Pac boots come in whole sizes only and do not come in half sizes. They also only come in a Medium (D) width and recommend going up one size if you need a wide. All of our sizing is true to size and is based on the brannock device, which is the metal foot measuring device in most shoe stores or footwear departments. If you do wear a half size, we recommend going up to the next whole size. For example, if you wear a 10.5 normally, then we recommend going up to a size 11.
Converting From Men's Size To Women's
All our Pac Boots are unisex, but are built on a men's sizing scale. There is an approximate 1.5 size difference between Men's and Women's sizing.
A men's size 7 is roughly equivalent to a women's size 8.5. Since our Pac Boots only come in whole sizes, in this case we would recommend going with a women's size 9.
