This is normally in the spring months when it rains so I dont often need wet shoes. Here is where I bought them from: <a href="http://www.macys.com/cms/slp/2/Walking-Shoes" rel="nofollow">http://www.macys.com/cms/slp/2/Walking-Shoes</a> You should have a look, I've not had any problems with the shoes I get there.

How in the world do you people drive in wellies?

They are really great. rachylou on "Do you have any go-to shoes for rainy/stormy days?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-any-go-to-shoes-for-rainystormy-days#post-665196 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 17:57:02 +0000 rachylou 665196@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ My official rain shoes/boots for work are Sigerson Morrison. Although, maybe I've given away the boots now. And water gets into flats no matter what, I have to say. Truth be told, I will also wear my wellies to work too and just keep them on all day. That doesn't bother me.

I saw a pair that were quite comfy for 10 euros and one day I think I'll buy them. They are 'pleather', of course, but what do you want for such a low price. All this worrying came after I almost ruined my favourite pair of sandals in the rain a week ago. It seems they are back to looking ok now, but I would have cried were they ruined completely. i don't think I'm finding shoes like those any soon!

Nothing else keeps my feet totally dry. In the summer it tends not to pour rain all day, but if it's a bit wet I might wear Converse because I know a bit of water won't ruin them. But I don't wear them if it's torrential. I certainly don't wear my good leather shoes in the wet. I'd rather wear rubber boots and not worry about it than wear leather ones and worry all day about stepping in puddles!

Best purchase ever! The color works in summer too!

This type of shoe does a great job of keeping my toes above the puddles, lol! Also, it's a stable shoe, so I don't feel like I'm going to slip or re-injure my ankle.

And I intend to duplicate or update at some point. I do have a pair of pink Wellies too, but in our crowded public transport, I'm not a fan of the excess baggage of extra 'good' shoes. So I reserve those for non-work days. Love them. Meanwhile, in the unaffordable but gorgeous category, I love Vivienne Westwood's Anglomania line of jelly shoes for Melissa: <a href="http://www.melissa.com.br/en/parceiros/detalhe/22/vivienne-westwood" rel="nofollow">http://www.melissa.com.br/en/p.....e-westwood</a> ETA: Many more images here: <a href="http://www.polyvore.com/vivienne_westwood_melissa_shoes/shop?query=vivienne+westwood+melissa+shoes" rel="nofollow">http://www.polyvore.com/vivien.....issa+shoes</a> and here: <a href="http://www.asos.com/Women/A-To-Z-Of-Brands/Vivienne-Westwood-Anglomania-For-Melissa/Cat/pgecategory.aspx?cid=6167&r=2" rel="nofollow">http://www.asos.com/Women/A-To.....7&r=2</a> Erica on "Do you have any go-to shoes for rainy/stormy days?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-any-go-to-shoes-for-rainystormy-days#post-664900 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 02:32:51 +0000 Erica 664900@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I just wear a normal pair of pleather boots, either motorcycle boots from Target or short riding boots from Kohl's. No rain boots for me!

I just wear my normal leather boots, but then I'm usually not walking through the rain for hours. If I were, I'd probably suck it up and wear gear, aka hiking boots.

I like the idea of the cutesy rainboots in prints and such but I'd rather have an incognito pair I could wear with regular clothes. It doesn't rain hardly ever here in the warm months so I don't have a summer rain option.

The bottom is rubber and they have elastic straps so they dry quite quickly. I loved the idea of Crocs and just tried something simular to what Isabel posted the other day but they didn't quite fit right(as I am cursed with narrow feet and the back is always loose Abie on "Do you have any go-to shoes for rainy/stormy days?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-any-go-to-shoes-for-rainystormy-days#post-664861 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 02:03:50 +0000 Abie 664861@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ OOh, crocs are a good idea, I was looking at these Chookas too. <a href="http://www.amazon.com/Chooka-Womens-Chantal-Flat-Red/dp/B007EEEANI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1341886013&sr=8-2&keywords=chooka+flat" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/Chooka-W.....hooka+flat</a> They are super cute but I dont know if I want to spend that much since it doesnt rain often.

They were navy blue. I just bought a pair to replace them and they arrived yesterday, coincidentally. I love them already, they are super comfortable, waterproof and breathe : <a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0036FU4M0/ref=oh_details_o05_s00_i00" rel="nofollow">http://www.amazon.com/gp/produ.....05_s00_i00</a> And they are CROCS !!!!!!

Diana on "Do you have any go-to shoes for rainy/stormy days?" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/do-you-have-any-go-to-shoes-for-rainystormy-days#post-664824 Tue, 10 Jul 2012 01:39:49 +0000 Diana 664824@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Sadly, I do not. I wish I did because my rain boots, while cute, are also very heavy and very warm (they are fleece lined and I sometimes use them as snow boots) so they are pretty uncomfortable in the summer! Sometimes when it is not raining too hard or if it's not raining but there are puddles I'll just wear my platform sandals, which are high enough off the ground to keep my feet dry. Doesn't work if it's really coming down though.

It doesn't rain a lot here but when it does, it seems like it always pours. I always struggle with what footwear to wear those days. I don't think I want to do the rain boot/change shoes route. I'd rather have a pair of casual shoes that can take the rain and I can build an outfit around. Do you have any go-to rainy day shoes?
