der. Sorry, Jesse, I linked to the wrong ones, the ones I'd like for me. These were the ones I had meant to link to: [link] I considered getting a short pair for Idaho and the Olympics in Feb.

They don't seem too expensive to me Jesse. I would just make sure they have good traction. I have been shopping around for boots a little lately.
My coworker has these and loves them: [link]
I have had good experiences with Hush Puppies in the past, and am considering these: [link]
My other coworker swears by Blondo, as superwarm and superwaterproof: [link]
But I just tried on a pair and didn't find them super comfy. And for $210, I didn't want to have to buy insoles as the salesperson suggested.
But I am hoping my current boots can make it through another winter.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
I can't work with patterns on boots, I'm sorry.

I have to admit, rubber boots for winter freak me out a bit. I can't help thinking of wearing regular rubber boots in winter which are always cold and slippery. But they would be superwaterproof, which is vital here is slushland.

Ah, thanks. Again too narrow, calf-wise, though. I need to go to DSW.

Now tagless for your comfort.
Jesse, I have a pair of Khombu boots--they are black, with a fleece lining and thermolite insulation. I can't find my exact boots but I swear by the brand for warmth, traction, waterproof and style. Mine zip up the side but also tighten with a bungee lace.

Mine are sort of like this
