Fubuki Niseko 3.0 Snow & Rain Boot

Fubuki make ultra-light, fully waterproof winter boots - a Swedish brand founded in 2019, mixing Scandinavian winter with Japanese design. The Niseko takes its shape from traditional northern Japanese fishing and road workers' boots. The Niseko 3.0 is the high-cut boot, with the shaft coming up the ankle for deeper snow.

Warmth and waterproofing

Rated to -30°C / -22°F under ISO 20877:2011 and fully waterproof. A strong EVA outer shell over a soft wool-blend lining, with an ABS toe cap, at 520 to 750 g a boot depending on size - warm and dry without the weight of a mountaineering boot. A two-layer removable insole comes with every pair.

Sizing

These come up large. Fubuki's own advice: if you are between two sizes, take the smaller of the two. Made in EU 35-46.

A note on the squeak

Boots built this way can squeak or creak a little in use. It is friction between the EVA shell and the ABS toe cap, it is normal.

What they are for

Snow, slush and cold rain - car parks and resort villages as much as the mountain.

Delivery Timeframe

Note that these boots are on their way to us now. There will be a slight delay of a week or two for delivery.
