I'm facing a big decision.
 

Seeing as we are supposed to get another foot of snow the next couple of days,a real problem is underfoot. I have not owned a pair of boots for over 20 years and the Reeboks ain't cutting it in this snow. I was maybe going to get a pair of hi-top sneakers? Any suggestions for boots,that wont hurt my feet?:)

Red Wings are nice...

Red Wings are nice, but they are tough to break in. Once you break them in, they are the best. For the price, however, I like Wolverines. I had a pair that did well for me for over 10 years. They still look good, have plenty of tread, but my feet are starting to get wet.

Since this is a major decision I really suggest you seek professional advice. I mean do you really want to trust us regarding something this important?

If you do, well it's one snowfall, slip some plastic bags over your shoes and deal with it.

At this point I'm looking at all my options.

Hey Jake.Do you think I went to a Mel Torme' fund raiser with Kramer?:)

I keep 3 new pairs in stock at all times. Then they are rotated at 3 month intervals. New pair put in to every day service and the pair they replaced are used locally and around the house. The oldest pair is on lawn and car wash duty. When I am down to one new pair in the closet,I order two more pair.:)

Carolina makes a nice wedge sole boot that has a cushion insole. Made in AMERICA too! They are all I wear, day in and day out. I save my old ones for spares.

I saw his collection, he has more pairs of boots than he has cars and he has lot's of cars.

I wear Red Wing work boots, but regular work boots won't be much warmer or dryer in the snow than your tennis shoes... This year was the first time since I was in grade-school that I bought snow-boots.

I bought "Irish Setter" by Red-Wing 1400gram insulated/waterproof hunting boots. They were around $110, money well-spent. :cool: My feet have stayed warm & dry in even the coldest weather. Along with some good insulated bibs, gloves, and face mask, I've spent hours outside in -30deg weather without getting cold this winter.

Unfortunately, they are made in China... :(

I'm in the shoe business, and for the last 20 years all I have worn are Havanna Joes, waterproof and incredibly comfortable. A bit expensive. You can try Teva, they are less and also nice. These are everyday boots, not just for snow.

Looking at your car,business must be pretty good!:D

My problem is ,I've been wearing tennis shoes for 20+ years and I cannot wear regular shoes for more than an hour before I'm in pain.
