The improved boot generally comprises an overshoe including one or more panels fitted to the contour of the foot from ankle to toes adapted to overlie the wearer's foot, and a sole member extending from the wearer's heel to toes, generally contoured thereto and adapted to underlie the foot. A thermal sleeve overfits at least the portion of the overshoe housing the toes of the wearer and is adhesively secured to the sole member thereof. A conventional catalytic warmer may be removably mounted in the pocket provided by the thermal sleeve. Adhesively connected to the sole member of the overshoe is a replaceable tread.
