I was thinking about getting a pair to garden in,but that's probably all I'd wear them for. I much rather just wear boots with waterproofing. Something about admitting defeat to the rain that's ingrained in us Seattlelites (same reason I don't use an umbrella) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756654 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 23:35:31 +0000 Mo 756654@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I guess I should clarify that I have 3 pairs of weatherproof boots, so Wellies never seemed a 'need' for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756651 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 23:34:08 +0000 Angie 756651@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>One pair. I have many pairs of weatherproof boots that are infinitely more comfy. I was all set to buy a pair of Burberry wellies - but found them so uncomfortable </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756642 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 23:29:38 +0000 Jjsloane 756642@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have my opalescent white Hunters that I have only worn a few times, but I love them and plan to wear them forever (even if only a few times a year). I also have some Dav black shiny ones I wear for mucking about (like school field trips to muddy farms) and a cheap pair of flowered ones from Targe for gardening. I have to stop myself getting more because there are so many cute ones, but I don't wear them to work so their wear factor is greatly decreased by this.<br /> If you wear them (it does rain in Seattle a bit does it not?) as normal fashion I'd go for it, they are opposite spectrum the pale and the black. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756586 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 22:07:51 +0000 cheryle (Dianthus) 756586@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I decided I needed a pair of rain boots last year and think I wore them once. They are black with multi colored polka dots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756554 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 21:24:22 +0000 Karie 756554@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I just bought a pair - I was out clothes shopping on a rainy Friday night (after all, what else is there to do on a rainy Fri., lol) and I got tired of squishing around in soaking wet shoes! I figure I'll get more wear out of them in the spring, when it seems to rain all the time here. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756533 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:55:55 +0000 Diana 756533@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one pair of wellies and rarely wear them. I only put them on if it is a massive downpour outside. Otherwise I just wear regular boots that I've sprayed. My grey patent leather tall boots are pretty much waterproof anyway. </p> <p>My problem with Wellies is that they make my feet hot and sweaty, so I always have to bring extra indoor shoes on days that I wear them. It's a hassle. Mine are fleece lined sperrys though, so maybe the Hunters are less hot. Before I bought my Sorels I used to wear them in the snow too and then they got more wear. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756526 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:45:04 +0000 Anonymous 756526@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I am about to go with a pair of Hunter huntress in the wine color. I do have a pair of white hunter original that are not jiving with my everyday life. I love them but find the color hard to do, without having something light on top. I think these will be passed down to little Zap. Plus, I cannot wear liners with the white ones. They would be too tight.</p> <p>So yes, I guess I will be the owner of two pairs of wellies.</p> <p>These are the ones I'm looking at:<br /> <a href="http://www1.bloomingdales.com/shop/product/hunter-huntress-extended-calf-glossy-rain-boots?ID=632635&#038;cm_mmc=Froogle_pla_pe-_-adtype-pla-_-target-34130955784-_-kw-&#038;gclid=CMjaypLDmrMCFQ6CQgodjEkApg" rel="nofollow">http://www1.bloomingdales.com/.....QgodjEkApg</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756523 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:42:26 +0000 catgirl 756523@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have two - one short (for camping - easy to pull on and off to stomp around campsite or around town), and one tall (for fishing and truly wet weather). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756517 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:38:03 +0000 rachylou 756517@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of shiny grey Hunter wellies and a pair of rubber riding boots which are wellies if you ask me. I also discovered that I DIDN'T give away my red Sigerson Morrison rubber rainboots (yay! I want them again).</p> <p>Even though we are in permanent drought, I find I do wear 'em. Maybe while we don't get enough rain (or snow), we still get our share of miserable mucky days. And there's always the dog to be walked.</p> <p>ETA: I suppose I should also consider the fact that I live in hipsterville and so can wear rubber boots any ol' time I want, rain or shine, and be totally mock worthy... hip I mean, hip! Lol. (Anybody seen the book, *Is this a hipster?* Potty-mouthed, but hilarious.) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756487 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:11:58 +0000 Aziraphale 756487@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. I own a pair of navy blue Hunter wellies, and white Ilse Jacobsen wellies with black laces. I wish I hadn't bought the white ones. I thought they were awesome at the time, but I never wear them. There's no outfit that they go with that the Hunters don't also go with, and besides, one day it occurred to me that they make me look like a majorette in a marching band. </p> <p>And it's not that I don't like white boots, because I have a pair of white leather Tsubo go-go boots that I adore, and wear a lot.</p> <p>I'm a motg who lives in rainy Vancouver, and I do wear wellies quite a lot from October through April, but even so....one pair of wellies is enough. If you already don't wear yours all that much, ask yourself: is it because you don't love them as much as you thought you did, or just because you don't need to wear rain boots all that often? If you don't love the snake ones, get the blue, but otherwise, I'd skip it. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756486 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 20:11:23 +0000 Raisin 756486@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Cute color, love them!</p> <p>I don't own any myself. It rains occasionally, but I haven't seen need to get any. I find the Hunter's cute though. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756474 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:59:32 +0000 bj1111 756474@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i bought a pair with flower print from target oz...carted them back stateside and keep forgetting i have those in the closet.</p> <p>i think the wellies are too casual for work and if i don't have to go to work, i just wait until it stops raining. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756465 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:51:33 +0000 annagybe 756465@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>It was this color</p> <p><a href="http://www.ebay.com/itm/Womens-light-blue-Hunter-rubber-rain-boots-wellies-rainboots-NWT-NEW-US-6-UK-4-/110968523515?pt=US_Women_s_Shoes&#038;hash=item19d63d4afb" rel="nofollow">http://www.ebay.com/itm/Womens.....19d63d4afb</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756460 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:46:01 +0000 Jenava 756460@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have one pair of black Hunters.

Period. 756453@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Well, darn! I was about to respond "You live in Seattle! Of course you need two!" But apparently no. Why don't you wear your Hunter ones? If it is just because they don't feel all that you, then I could see you buying the ice blue ones. You wear pastels really well.</p> <p>(Oh, and I'm adding a write in candidate: buy the black suede Fluevog boots instead. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756450 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:37:02 +0000 Mo 756450@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I don't own a single pair. I have a friend in San Diego, of all places, with a Coach pair lol. It never rains there! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-any-of-you-own-more-than-one-pair-of-wellies#post-756447 Wed, 24 Oct 2012 19:34:51 +0000 annagybe 756447@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have a pair of Hunter wellies in the black boa pattern (textured black snakeskin). When I was at the Rack yesterday I saw a pair of pale, ice blue Hunters in my size.<br /> Though even though I live in Seattle, I really don't wear my existing pair all that often. </p>
