I love these boots. I bought them my first day as a missionary in Anchorage, Alaska.I don't remember what prompted me to buy these particular boots. I remember thinking while I was at the MTC in Provo that when the time came I'd buy footwear that was a little more feminine. But when it came right down to it, I went with the Sorel Snowcat in white.
The drawstrings at the top of the boots are useful when walking in deep snow. I appreciated that feature several times on my mission, but mostly left them untied.
Usually I get these boots out of storage once a year for a day or two. This year the boots have been a familiar fixture by my front door for 2 weeks and counting. I am not exaggerating when I say that my feet are always toasty warm when I wear my Snowcats.
If I look goofy walking through the mall in my giant white boots, I really don't care. I love my boots and hope to still be wearing them in another 20 years.
(That's right...I was a missionary 20 years ago. Please. Don't do the math.)

Wellll, if you lived in Utah, your boots would be by the door for 2+ months out of the year. Besides, your boots are still very much in style... as much as any warm snow boot for a girl can be. But seriously... the Sorels I bought my boys are still the same basic design. You should walk down the mall with pride. ;-)
