Do people wear rain boots where you live? (Sally, buy, women)

[ddm2k]

I can see how some guys might stray away from pull-on wellies because they might be considered juvenile.

Fortunately, Hunter has provided us with an alternative

Nobody wears rain boots here either. Mostly too hot for them.

However, all the times I've been to New Orleans (which so far, has always been in June) I see LOTS of girls and women wearing rain boots. And they're super cute. It's the cutest thing...girls and women wearing their cute sun dresses (lots more dresses in the south, as opposed to where I live) and their cute rain boots.

Funny. I was in Slidell, in the Northshore suburbs of New Orleans, for ten weeks last summer. Didn't quite see the ladies wear rain boots all that much...was probably too muggy for rain boots. The rain is very warm there; flip flops seemed alot more common on rainy days. Boots would be better suited for cold, winter rain.

Didn't notice too many ladies in dresses or skirts. Ironically, I see far more girls here in Southern California wear dresses and skirts than anywhere else I've been.

I see a lot of women and children wearing rain boots on rainy days. I dont think I've ever really noticed men wearing rain boots when out and about so it must not be too common with the men here.

Oops, there was a typo in that post. I meant, "rainbows", lol. New computer with aggressive auto-correct!

You can look in catalogs like LL Bean, and NormThompson, for flowery boots, stripes or plaids, if that's what you were asking about.

Lol...I should’ve have realized.
No, I was just wondering since I had t heard of this popular boot brand.

I’m a die-hard LL Beans Maine Hunting boots fan....I’m a former new englander so I’ve worn them for at least 35 years. The grown daughters love Wellies. Started with those because so popular in the horse world and now they are a fashion statement. Though the youngest still prefers the original green color.

Same here. We had a HUGE rain yesterday. Probably needed waders! lol

Rain boots, western boots, snow boots and even cow patty boots when out near the pasture.

I recall working in an office the high fashion sales ladies snickered when I came in with my trench coat, umbrella and boots. The nice thing was...I'd be freshened up in five mins and looked comfy. They on the other hand lost half their makeup and there hair went frumpy from daintily running in with no coat or umbrella. My practicality preserved my appearance ..theirs ..no so much. I welcome items that keep a person dry ..from head to toes.
