I'm old, and I cling firmly to the age-old adage of "Never go cheap on anything that rests between you and the earth." That includes shoes, tires and mattresses.



If you buy "Bean Boots" get the flannel/chamois lined ones at a minimum. Saving $20 for the unlined ones is a bad move.
The Thinsulate-lined ones and shearling (fur) lined ones are almost too warm for Virginia, but if you are unaccustomed to cold weather, it might not be a terrible purchase.

DO buy 3 pair of tall, thick boot socks to go with your new pair of boots, and make sure you try the boots on with the socks.

Personally, I don't care for duck boots. (any boot with the leather upper attached to a rubber bottom)
I prefer an all-leather boot for cold-weather.

I prefer dark leather, so it looks like a dress shoe at first glance.

Some key features:

  1. You want to see the word(s) "Waterproof" or "Water proof".
  • Slushy melted snow loves to sneak inside non-waterproof shoes and make you walk around with soggy socks. Wet feet get really cold really quickly.
  • You don't have to see "Gore-Tex" for the boot to be waterproof.
  1. You want to see a nice, chunky tread pattern on the boot. Something that can bite into packed snow and give you traction & stability.
  • Pro-Tip: It is good manners to always stomp your boots clear just before you enter a building. Chunky treads sometimes fill with snow and carry it with you in the cleats.
  1. You want something that at least goes up over your ankles. A 6 to 8" boot is plenty. 9-12" boots are really only intended for deep woods activities.
  2. Resist the temptation to buy something with a zipper up the side, or velcro closure instead of big long laces. Laces are the way to go.

    If you apply a leather treatment to the boots at the end of every winter, before you throw them in the back of your closet, they will last 20 years or more.

    If you want to go old-school, and use something natural & traditional then:
    this or maybe this

    If you prefer to let science do the work for you then:

    this or maybe this could be the way to go.


    -----

    If money is tight, or if you are going to travel back home to Arizona after college and you'll likely never need cold-weather boots again in your life, anything $60 or so at Target or Walmart really can work just fine.

    Also, as I said before, good boots last a really long time. Weird as used shoes might be, Goodwill isn't as crazy an option as it might sound.

    Final comment on boot socks:

    Cotton and Acrylic socks are cheap and easy to find, and work adequately.
    But real wool is the warmest and toughest way to go, hands-down, and a super-soft merino wool is almost as soft as cotton.
