What do you wear on your feet in the snow? (just in case it comes back again)

My mum was going to buy me some snowboots for Christmas but her cheque was sent back as the ones she ordered were out of stock. So... I'm owed a pair of boots but don't know what to get. Any suggestions?

Not mega-money as my mum is a pensioner and the ones she was going to get were half price in a sale, although I could put something towards them if need be.

I want something with a warm fleecy lining, that will keep my feet dry, and has a chunky sole because obviously the horse field will be rutted if it freezes again. Basically they are so I can walk over the Downs to do the horses without freezing to death like I did last time in my wellies, despite extra socks, or breaking my neck (can also use for sledging with dcs of course!).

They don't have to be specific horsey ones but not too grannyish. My mum showed me some today with pom poms on. Hmm

Oh and I have wide feet. I even have trouble getting wellies to fit. Just to make it easier. Wink

Just in case anyone has been having sleepless nights wondering...Wink...

The boots I really liked best went for a ridiculous price in the end. Obviously plenty of other people really liked them too! Oh well.

Never mind, I got these in the end, the same as Lisa's. You are right, the sizing is very good, I think they will be very warm and comfy. Smile
(liked the sound of your black ones but they were nowhere to be found).

I've got some snowboots from Trespass - under £30, fabric not heavy rubber, better grip than walking boots but flexible so much better to drive in. Not fancy but incredibly practical and don't look too clumpy -really pleased with them.

Hi Pixel, glad you got some nice boots, I have been very glad of mine lately, was freezing this morning and my feet were the only things not cold!
