Winter in Philly...Shoes/Boots?

<p>Last year the east coast got tons of snow. Hopefully this year there will be less. I agree with others don’t buy anything until they ask for it. I’ve found out that it does not good to plan ahead with my college students.</p>

<p>Do boys wear Uggs in the Northeast? I know girls do but my D says that they are going out at her Northeastern school. But it could just be that she doesn’t like Uggs. She has a fur lined pair of dressy type boots but she says that they are too warm to wear at school. She got a pair of black rubber type rainboots that I ordered from Zappos. She loves them and plans on getting boot socks for them and wearing them in the snow and slush.</p>

<p>My D loves boots and has a bunch of them. Most (all!) of them are not meant to be worn in the snow and slush. She says that the trend is to wear them in the summer with your shorts and dresses (not Uggs). Apparently wearing shoes that we think are appropriate for the weather is not trendy anymore.</p>

<p>My S goes to school where they get lots and lots of snow. He wears hiking boots.</p>

<p>I love my Sorel’s. The kids would not be caught dead in them. I am so proud of my self. Mine are really old and made before Sorel was bought out and I think that they are warmer and better made than the one’s they make now. What I nerd I am lol!</p>
