Waterproof rubber boots are a must if you’re commuting in the pouring rain, traipsing around in mud or standing along the sidelines of a drenched soccer field. Needless to say, everyone in Seattle has a pair of wellington boots! Hunter wellies are pricey but they’re worth it. The quality is a cut above the rest, the contoured fit adds a sophisticated edge and the rubber is super flexible. You’ll feel the difference as soon as you pop these on and compare them to the $15 variety. Promise.
