Jesse, these? [link]

Keen, Merrell, Teva all make leather boots now.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I guess I won't really be walking through snow, right? I mean, people clear the sidewalks here....

You sound like you're doing a lot of walking. There's walking before the snow gets cleared, on packed snow, through the drifts--there are all sorts of places traction is good.. Then there's mushy and icy to consider.

Now tagless for your comfort.

If you're walking through slush and cold puddles, I'd go for the Wellies. Love them, Jesse.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Kat and flea, both of those look slick on the bottom -- I think ice and slippery is my real worry. And I'm imagining getting the one job I interviewed for (cart, horse, I know), which would mean walking up and down a decent hill, including a bridge.

I feel like I need snow boots.

I bought mine at 6pm.com.

Yeah, my first priority would be traction, then snow depth, then fashion.

It's not like I don't own boots with traction. But they aren't Snow Boots! I'm scared.

der. Sorry, Jesse, I linked to the wrong ones, the ones I'd like for me. These were the ones I had meant to link to: [link] I considered getting a short pair for Idaho and the Olympics in Feb.
