The main difference between the Arctic Pro and Arctic Sport is that the Pro is rated for cooler conditions as it has a slightly thicker flex foam bootie which allows for more insulation. The Pro is consequently a little bit heavier boot. The Sport comes in 2 different leg heights and has a sole that is meant for snow rather than ice. The Pro Muck boot on the other hand will work better on ice then the Sport version. So these two Arctic style boots are very similar in design. However you'll find the Pro is a step up from the Sport version with regards to superior warmth and traction.

    In response to John Wilder: The only muck boot with a true heel is the Chore boot. What you see more of is the aggressive soles. They wrap up around the heel, and in the case of the muckmaster, it has a very aggressive sole that wraps up higher up the heel. They all have a slight heel, but I can’t confirm that the MuckMaster has a higher heel than the Arctic Ice.
