Winter boots?

Okay, I know that this is a bit early to be asking... but I'm unemployed, so I need to take advantage of any coupons, keep an eye on sales, shop around, etc so I can find a good deal before it gets cold.

I lived in CA for the last 4 winters. I don't remember cold weather. Anyone have any good winter boot recs?I need to be able to walk in the snow etc. I don't even remember owning boots... I think I was always drunk in college so I never noticed the cold?

TIA

Re: Winter boots?

  • Honestly, during the day I wear Hunter rainboots with cashmere socks and fleece liners. They keep my feet dry (unlike Uggs) and warm and the bottom of my jeans are never wet (a huge pet peeve of mine). At night I grin and bear it in more fashionable leather boots.

    I hate winter shoe options. Ugh.

    From Oy Vey to Ole!

    Ohh, rain boots. That seems like a great solution! I'm a lucky girl. My hubby works for shopbop.com and so I get a 50% discount. 

    And yes, ugh, wet jean bottoms... and the salt stains. I think I'm going to miss CA. :)

  • I typically brave it with my regular shoes, boots, or tennis shoes, but now I'm starting to think I should look into some rain boots as well!  Good luck on your search and good luck dealing with snow for the first time in 4 years!  :)

    I have black (shiny) and dark purple. I recommend going with similar colors because they work best with a variety of outfits/liners.

    I thought that the dark brown and the navy looked nice.  I feel like both could go well with other black or brown accessories.  

    Thank your DH for me... I'm totally checking out that sale!

  • I just purchased the Frye Melissa Button Boots in cognac.  Next on the list are rain boots.  I own a pair of leather catwoman like boots that I have worn down the heel cap 5 times.  I just keep getting them refurbished.  They are warm and comfy and hottt.
