Boots For A Rainy Day

The most fashionable shoes for women in the fall and winter are always her boots, and with today’s clothing styles I love high boots- particularly Bogs Sidney Tall boots in solid black. They go with everything! They are waterproof, easy to pull on, and comfortable, and maybe most importantly- flattering! They make legs look great, and I’m finding myself already reaching for them on these drizzly New York autumn days.

Looking good starts with feeling good, and walking around in these comfy boots keeps me feeling relaxed and cool. They are 100% waterproof, so sidewalk puddles don’t faze me. They have 5mm Neo-Tech Lite insulation and Max-Wick to keep my feet warm and dry in yucky weather – down to 5ºF! Max-Wick moves sweat away from feet to keep them dry, and I’m kind of loving the plaid too. Bog Sidney boots are pretty on the inside too!

They have enough heel to give me a slight lift, and the shape of the shaft is flattering even on my hard-to-flatter calves (probably because the material can mold to your shape- it’s not rigid). The molded EVA insole has DuraFresh technology, and the outsole has rebound technology- all these works together for supremely comfortable boots – and look at that cute sole:

And if you want to mix it up, or cover the pull handles, you can add your own boot cuffs. My knitted boot cuffs look great on my Bogs! Very versatile, they go with my skinny jeans, my leggings, and my autumn dresses with stockings too. All you have to decide is if you want them straight up, folded over, or cuffed.

My Bogs Sidney Tall boots seem designed to just pull onto my feet so I can run out of the house whenever I have to…a cute umbrella and my BOGS Boots and I’m ready for anything!

It’s not easy finding a pair of pretty boots that look great and are functional too. I’ve been searching for years! We can’t stop going to work, market shopping, carpooling our kids, or doing errands because of some rain, and these are boots that look fashionable despite being weather-armor on those stormy days. They look just as good wet! Bogs Sidney comes in solid or plaid, regular or tall, and for me, the classic simplicity of the Sidney Tall in black is just “me”.
