>>377211Most important thing about books is keeping them waterproof. The less stitches the better. When you buy boots you want to look at a good tight stitch and a good sole above anything (tight stitch helps with waterproofing - nothing bulky, loose or a bulging stitch) You can get away with a straight leather for use in hot or cold weather if you keep it waterproof. It is imperative to properly layer socks in cold weather: synthetic fabric or water resistant natural fabric on the skin with one or two insulating layers. You can always buy socks or an insole for comfort which in the end is not only less expensive but creates a better quality boot..... but don't forget waterproofing upkeep.
