I absolutely remember Moon Boots!! I had a pair I got in the late '70's and completely wore them out. Then I got another pair which were the industrial kind; they had a thick rubber outsole which came up higher in the back. Those boots were the warmest boots I've ever owned, and about the only boots which would combat the Wyoming cold in the dead of winter (it gets plenty frosty in late Feb/March there). I used to even wear them to work sometimes...until one time I crushed my foot with an oxygen cylinder. Not sure any other boot would have prevented that, but I didn't wear them a lot afterwards as they weren't really as cool anymore.
Noticed several folks saying they got wet easy. I don't recall mine ever getting wet. Most comfortable boots too.
edit - Heh, regarding prices, yeah, crazy today! Just last winter I was remembering my old moon boots and decided to look up getting a pair. What a shocker!! $400 bucks???? NO WAY!! Not sure what I paid for my last pair, but I think it was around $30-$40 bucks.
