Ahnu Womens Montara Boot Plain Text

From former employee and current Alpenglow Sports Ambassador Whitney Foehl….Selling shoes at Alpenglow Sports in Tahoe City, California has exposed me to a numerous options and viewpoints for outdoor footwear. However, little I've seen compares to the winter-season-woman searching for boots. The drunken woman putting on flip flops in the middle of a blizzard was most likely a highlight, but more on par is the UGG tourist. They thought that since those comfy slipper-like boots worked in the suburban setting where hence they arrived, they would do for Tahoe. They rapidly find that they aren't waterproof and they become a sloppy, wet mess in any snow much deeper than your pinky nail. Ladies, UGGs are ideal for some things but being practical is not one of these.

Other women are available in for the mountain-town famous Sorel. These boots will definitely keep the feet warm and dry but are also bulky and feel just like you're carrying around extra weight. Whenever trying to snowshoe or walk the dog, Sorels can be cumbersome. Hey, never get me incorrect, Sorels are perfect for those deep, wet snow storms, or as an instant wear to go to your shop.

Therefore, where have always been we going with all this?

Let me introduce for you the Montara boot by Ahnu It is billed as a mid-height, light weight hiker but what I discovered recently was its ability to function as the perfect winter circumambulate boot. We haven't worn a mid-height boot in over fifteen years and was skeptical at first, but after 1 day of breaking them in, I'm offered. They're completely waterproof using their very own breathable material they call eVent”. Please notice how cool it's to have the capital V stuck in there. V is for? Ventilation silly. Really, i've no idea, i am simply assuming since that is what this fabric liner is exactly about.

Okay, waterproof and breathable, check. They are also very comfortable and have actually Vibram soles therefore I don't feel like i will slip and slide within the parking lots of life. I have been lacing mine up just about every day for dog walks, shoveling, around town, and simply winter wear as a whole. The added advantage is these are typically stylish and feminine so you may wear them for work, travel, or within the city. You have actually to take into account what you'll use them for since they are not insulated like true cold temperatures boots are, but I've had them out within the snow with hot socks and felt great. If you are looking for a boot to be out all day in a blizzard, these obviously aren't your Girls, but as a versatile protective layer for hill life, i do believe you'll love them.

In conclusion, the Montara boot from Ahnu deserves a 2nd look as an around town wintertime boot. The truly amazing bonus is that you ask them to to wear in the other three seasons too. They have a multipurpose flare so you can wear them for a number of life's adventures. Take it from this local; if these were the last boots I had on my foot before the revolution started, I'd be ready to fight (like a lady).
