Coaching boots

Does anyone have coaching boots, and if so, what do you think of them?

I don't, but I did try on the Jackson coaching boots and they were incredibly UNcomfortable. I tried other Jacksons, so I know it's not the brand that disagrees with me.

I also don't have them (too expensive... I wear cheap skates) but one of the coaches at our rink has the Jackson coaching boot and she LOVES them. She told me they felt like slippers, and they are better insulated than regular boots so her feet stay warm.

Boy is that weird! I heard from a coach at a previous rink that they are terrible, and then tried them myself and agreed with her. Maybe they've changed them this year?
