Be Lenka Barefoot has super functional winter boots that are perfect for snow, cold, and even dressing up in the winter!I did once try a pair of quality leather boots without Gore-Tex lining (but with supposedly waterproof leather) and my feet were soaking wet after less than a mile of walking across wet fields of long grass (the best test of waterproofing IMO - standing in a puddle doesn't test boots properly!
