This month has been brutally cold…colder it seems than is normal. Or maybe its just that we’re seeing these temps for several days in a row and it’s harder to take. I don’t know…it’s just not fun. I’m thankful for the Muck boots that I bought a couple of years ago. Boots are such a personal thing but for me, it’s all about keeping my feet warm & dry…this includes not sweaty. Sweat is wet just like anything else is wet and it makes your feet just as uncomfortable especially when they then get cold. Anyway, the Muck boots have worked for me. I have a tall neoprene pair and and short pair of garden type shoes…love them both! The tall pair has a pretty good bottom on them and do pretty well in the snow. I add a pair of YakTrax anyway just because I feel like I can walk more normally and that means my hips and back don’t ache quite as much.
