For many years (more than a decade), I couldn't say that. Why? Because I couldn't find any boots I liked. Okay, I'll admit it. My last pair of boots leaked like sieves and I figured I may as well just wear my sneakers and have wet feet anyway. But this year ... I decided to bite the bullet.
I'm no clothes horse. I've had fashionable boots in the past. Not only did they leak, but they hurt my feet. This year, my mother saw a pair of Totes boots she liked at JCPenney, but they didn't have her size, so I ordered them for her online. As it happens, we wear the same size shoe, so when her boots came, I tried them on, and--Whoa--they fit perfectly. Even better, they weren't super expensive. I went straight home and ordered a pair for myself.What a difference. Unlike my sneakers, they're WARM. So far my feet have stayed dry. I can shovel and not have Popsicle toes. I am a happy camper!
It's true, they are NOT glamorous, but so what? I want warm, dry feet and they deliver. Now to hope they last more than one season without leaking.
Are you a fashion hound when it comes to boots, or do you just want dry feet?
