They are very comfortable, but of course, everyone's foot issues are unique. I would suggest giving the Born Persimmons a go and see how it feels. Born is one brand I can usually buy and be sure that my feet will not suffer. Good luck and let us know what you decide. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-boots-werent-made-for-walking-need-winter-boot-advice#post-33235 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 16:36:36 +0000 Alecia 33235@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've never lived in incliment weather so I can't comment on the necesssary properties. But I love the london fog boots. It seems to me, they would be good because london fog is known for clothes that can stand up to the elements. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-boots-werent-made-for-walking-need-winter-boot-advice#post-33230 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 16:28:30 +0000 Debbie 33230@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I walked all over a cold and wet Scotland in my Aersole Ride Lines in comfort.</p> <p>They are not leather tho.</p> <p>I put my orthotic in with a thin insole (that my podiatrist sells) over the orthotic and it worked very nicely.</p> <p>Ridelines do not have removeable insoles and neither do the Born's I don't think. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-boots-werent-made-for-walking-need-winter-boot-advice#post-33221 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 14:56:22 +0000 Laura 33221@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi aj - I didn't look at all of the links, but wanted to say that I have the Born Thicket riding boots (Nordstrom has them online) and they are very cushy. Does that brand work for you? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/these-boots-werent-made-for-walking-need-winter-boot-advice#post-33174 Sun, 02 Nov 2008 03:46:16 +0000 Amanda 33174@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been wearing my black and brown Aerosoles boots quite a bit already with my skinny jeans -- and I just can't keep wearing them. I didn't wear them the last two fall/winters because I was having foot problems. But even though my feet are doing much better, these boots just don't work -- 2" heels are too high for me now and they don't have any cushion for my feet (insoles don't fit). </p> <p>Plus, I need a good pair of winter boots for my trip to Lithuania. I want flat or low heeled boots because I will be walking in snow/ice on brick and cobblestone streets. But I also want to have boots that I can keep wearing once I am back in Seattle. </p> <p>I went back and read some of the early boot threads but I'm still not sure whether I should look for waterproof instead of leather. I think that brown boots will be most versatile. I'm thinking of getting two pair since I'll probably wear boots all winter and thought gray would be another versatile color --- maybe ankle boots in gray except they all seem to have high heels. Under $200 would be best, especially if I want to buy two pair.</p> <p>Here are some I've looked at:</p> <p>Franco Sarto Lariat:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2992964/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007688?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007688&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....8&#038;P=1</a></p> <p>Steve Madden Sekt:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3006446/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007688?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007688&#038;P=1" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....8&#038;P=1</a></p> <p>Born Persimmon:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/3003211/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007688?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007688&#038;P=2" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/30.....8&#038;P=2</a></p> <p>Steve Madden Timber:<br /> <a href="http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/2985779/0~2376778~2372808~6007659~6007688?mediumthumbnail=Y&#038;origin=category&#038;searchtype=&#038;pbo=6007688&#038;P=2" rel="nofollow">http://shop.nordstrom.com/S/29.....8&#038;P=2</a></p> <p>London Fog Wales<br /> <a href="http://www.piperlime.com/browse/product.do?cid=42919&#038;pid=615553&#038;scid=615553012" rel="nofollow">http://www.piperlime.com/brows.....=615553012</a></p> <p>Aerosoles Borderline:<br /> <a href="http://www.aerosoles.com/product1.asp?P=BORDERLINE" rel="nofollow">http://www.aerosoles.com/product1.asp?P=BORDERLINE</a></p> <p>I love these Gentle Soles but too pricey:<br /> <a href="http://www.piperlime.com/browse/product.do?cid=42919&#038;pid=607288&#038;scid=607288022" rel="nofollow">http://www.piperlime.com/brows.....=607288022</a></p> <p>Any advice would be appreciated! </p>
