I was going to say try wearing merino wool socks. I can wear regular hiking shoes in the winter with merino wool socks and my feet stay warm.
Also, the boots shouldn’t be too tight on your feet for optimal warmth. Toes should be able to wiggle.

I don’t know if they are “fully waterproof “ or what that really means with leather boots. I can say that boots from all three brands held up to Mid-Atlantic winter slush with no problems.


Also: I have the Royal Canadian Lethbridge, which I was lucky to get years ago from Sierra Trading Company for under a hundred dollars. The Cambridge boots seem similar, and are still available on their website.

La Canadienne boots are expensive great. I would get a pair of bean boots or similar for casual/most rugged and a pair of plain black La canadiennes without a big lug sole. Those will carry her through most internships, etc.

Maybe try the lined boots from LL Bean? I've heard good things about those.


I have the lined LL Bean boots. They're great-- almost too warm for around here.


I also find the shearling lined bean boots way too warm for DC except in the middle of snow. So they end up being useful for a couple of days every couple of years. Whereas they were my go to in CT.
