Outdoor Shoe Recommendations

Holly posed a question about shoe for cold weather. Regular dress boots are not quite enough in the snow and possible sub zero weather. Heavy duty is the way to go. I would suggest going straight to L. L. Bean. They have shoes for men and women geared to extremes in cold weather. The have a shoe grouping called "Cold Weather Boots." You can view them here.



I am partial to very functional boots that may not look the best with dress clothes as long as they do the job. I have a pair of duck shoes that I love as they are insulated and are for cold and wet weather.



After looking thru the L.L. Bean on line, I like the following and by that I mean I would buy for myself in a skinny minute!





I have these and love them!





These are the snow mocs. I would like a pair of these as the ones above, you really can't wear with dress pants and make them look good. Right now, I totally tuck the pants in and do not worry about it.





This one reminds me of a hiking boot and I am in love with hiking boots. I have a pair of JEEP suede hiking boots that I just love.



The next brand of shoe I would recommend would be the UGGS. I do not have any but they are very good in cold weather as well. Check out the womens line here. I would love to have any they make!



I would love these furry ones!





These are more practical but wonderful!







Hope this will help in your search for shoes!









What I do is kick them in the pants with a diamond buckled shoe!
