Fleece Boots
With
all of the new boot liners and their fancy, high tech names, you
may be tempted to spend more money just to get them. These all serve
their purposes, but good old-fashioned fleece really does a great
job of keeping your feet warm and dry. Fleece boots are easy to
find too, not to mention how affordable they are.
Fleece is basically a synthetic, 100% polyester fabric. It has an altered 'structure' which facilitates moisture transfer through the fabric. Some say that fleece absorbs moisture, but that is not entirely true. Instead, it wicks moisture away from the skin to its outer surface. Fleece makes a great boot liner for several reasons. First of all, it is highly breathable. While you want your feet to be warm during cold weather, they can actually begin to sweat with all of that warmth. Fleece allows your feet to breathe so that they don't sweat as much and any perspiration that does present itself will be wicked away from your skin. Fleece is also very lightweight. Boots can be heavy in and of themselves. Why add weight to your load with a heavy liner? Another wonderful attribute of fleece is that it dries quickly. Cold weather brings precipitation and your boots are sure to get wet from time to time. With a fleece liner you won't have to wait long before your shoes are dry. If all of these great characteristics of fleece are not enough, then perhaps the fact that it is so soft and comfortable will do. Fleece lining is available in just about every style of boot as well as every price range. The "Plot" by Miss Sixty is an upscale boot that works in casual as well as more dressy settings. The tall 17 inch shaft height and plush fleece lining will keep your feet and legs warm while looking spectacularly hot. The soft suede upper and 3 and one-half inch wedge heel is sure to turn heads this season. The fashionable lace-up design is all the rage. But, if you don't feel like wearing it all laced up, you can easily fold it down for your convenience. It's lightly padded foot bed makes this boot comfortable enough to wear all day. This boot will keep you stylish, comfortable and warm in your choice of dark brown, bronze or gold. If the price of the "Plot" makes you a little squeamish, take a look at the "Hurricane"; by Bongo. It offers comfort and style. Its 13 inch shaft easily folds down to create fashionable fleece cuffs. The fleece lining will also keep your feet super warm all winter long. This suede boot has a trendy yet comfortable wedge heel and cute contrast stitching. It is available in camel or black and makes a wonderful addition to any wardrobe. Whatever particular style you prefer, fleece boots are a wonderful choice for winter weather. They will keep your feet warm, dry and comfortable at the same time. |
