New warm boots????????XXXXXXNO UGGSXXXXXXXXXXX

I found a pair at FootSmart that I thought looked well-made.  The also have a thinner pair that might work well for slippers, but this one looks good for boots.  (I won't be needing these until the next Ice Age, but anyway...)  They are made in Germany.

Those look nice and cozy. Have you ordered anything from this company, Listy?  I was surfing a bit and I like what I saw.

Those look nice. I have a pair of boots, size 7.5 that are a tiny bit big on me.  I feel like these would be perfect. Though I see they don't currently have size 7.5 or 8.  I'll have to browse a little more...

I have ordered from FootSmart once with good results.  Now they send me their catalogs, of course.  They seem quite reliable to me and they have lots of specialty items for foot problems.  (Maybe they should call themselves FootNot-So-Smart. )

I found Pedag insoles on Amazon that seem to be very similar, if not the same as those on the Pedag site (for a few pennies less and Prime eligible).

I noted in the reviews (only 2) that one person returned them because they can't be cut to size.

How would you say the sizes run? I wear a half size so of course have to go up to the next whole size in boots and slippers.

My slippers were too big to start and have only grown with use (leather so they stretched). I want to not only get the cushy feeling back but I'd like to take up some of the excess space with insoles. A little small probably wouldn't work. A lot small and maybe I could go up a whole size. A little large and maybe I could drop down a size.

These look like the best that I've seen and I've been searching. I really like that they have cork on the bottom, both for warmth and breathability.

ILuvLucy - I'm with you all the way on the Aquatalia boots. Beautiful but beyond my budget. Still, I enjoyed drooling over them.

Styyna, the Footsmart Link that Listy posted suggests that if you are in-between sizes, to order the next size up in the Pedag insoles

I ordered the L.L. Bean Deerfield Boots last night. My super-treat to myself this year. Everything about them said, "Buy me. I will love you forever." I got them in brown.

Boots are LLBean's flagship product.  I hope they are everything you are looking for, Styyna.

[makinalist]

Oh, my.  Those are beautiful.  Makes me wish I could wear boots without my feet melting right off of my legs...

[Cougar]

Those Deerfield Boots are good lookin'!

[Styyna]

DH doesn't know I ordered them yet. Along with a number of other items. If there's a nuclear explosion from fly-over country in the US you'll know they arrived.

Ruh-roh!  Hope that works out for you!  Maybe explain that good leather boots are an investment that will last for many years and you mean to take very good care of them so they will.  Anyone who has serious winter weather every year (as you do) deserves nice boots!

[Cougar]

I adore boots and keep them forever, wearing them to pieces.  And if they're LL Bean, they *are* an investment.  Those are classics.

I have a number of pair of excellent quality boots, one worn one time, that I'm taking to a consignment shop next week. I should be able to cover at least half the cost of the new boots when these sell. I've got a plan, you see.

[makinalist]

Oooh - a plan!  I like it!
