Sizes men's 8 to 11 is on the sign above the stack of boots. Didn't wander over to the women's section to check for the same offer.

I bought a pair at the St. Albert store in December for the same price.
At that time they said they were a "discontinued" item and that only select stores had them.
I have used them and they are a great boot, very good price so I would recommend - yes !

The sizing chart seems to be accurate.

Default Grip?

How are they for traction , especially on icy surfaces? I am a real sissy when it comes to ice...

They're pretty darned good for traction. I wore them one year elk hunting in 404 and they worked well in the hills. They will accept some brands of crampons, which will turn you into a human tractor.

I have the Muck Arctic Pro which is a littlw warmer than Arctic Sport. Wore them lots all last winter and never had cold feet. Wore them also all Nov hunting again nice and warm. Traction has been good and for type of boot they are pretty comfortable for walking. I did notice that the top of one boot has just developed a 2 inch crack along top of toe area . Still warm but that no makes them leak. I have other lighter versions of muck boots and it appears that one to max two years is all you get out of them before cracks and the neoprene ripping. I am thinking of spraying the crack and neoprene rips with that flex seal rubber you see advertised on TV Has anyone tried that to extend the life of boot

I rarely get a full year out of a pair of Mucks without rips and tears.
Depending on where the crack/rip is, I've had some success with shoe goo but its only a temporary fix
To be honest, I've kinda given up on theses boots except for the sloppy spring season

I've had my Muck (not arctic) for 3 years now and it's in great shape. It gets low use. I'm sure some put on more wear on theirs in the first year than I have. But for what that's worth.
