Wearing Converse shoes in the winter three years in a row has really fucked two of my toes around. It hardly cold at all right now (-7) and my toes are already itchy and I refuse to get frost bite again. No way.
So, I bought a pair of combat boots at the Salvation Army today for $9 haha(they're hardly worn at all) I'm looking forward to falling on my ass due to the zero grip they have.

I feel bad about them being made out of leather, but at least I bought them used right?

I traded my shoes for my friends cons for a while...and I had to bear through that whole freezing rain day that we had with them. Rideau was flooded and my feet were soaked, so I got back my real shoes. Ugh I hate this cold weather, but at least it's better than it being warm due to greenhouse gasses.

ive swapped my dirty old white converse for black fake leather or Vegetarian Boots. ha ha ha I think converse have zero grip, i once went to a gallery in london and it had been raining and there were marble floors everywhere, i slipped over 4 times in my converse.

I just got a pair of red leather converse Jack Purcells. They have even less grip than allstars I think. But they are leather so they are a bit more waterproof.

When I first read the name of this thread, I thought it said "boobs" not "boots."

Converse works just fine in winter. And don't even think about replying "duuh, you have never felt the real, cold winter... noob". I live in fuckin' north Sweden, this is like a suburb to Siberia.
Stop beeing such pussies and stick to your Converse. |

But then the frostbite get to our little toesies and make them little toesie go black and fall off! You wouldn't want that to happen, now, would you?
