February: Walking in a Winter Wonderland (in Aldens)
Gentlemen, I wanted to kick off February’s monthly topic. This is our second monthly topic, but our first seasonal themed topic this year. Take all the time that you need to think of your personal response, as you got all month to work on a post that suits you and captures your thoughts, so no need to rush to post a response today!
Living in San Diego, this is probably the post that I am the least equipped to discuss, but the topic of the month is what is your three recommended Alden's for wearing in the Winter and why. Do you prefer Boots on Commando or Mini-Lug or Double Waterlock or are you wearing Double Leathered Balmorals? I am curious what your favorite pair is for the winter (not just sole)!
Please reply to this post to make your responses easier to see. Thank you so much and I very much look forward to seeing everyone’s thoughts (and I am sure discussions) this month!

I happen to like Suede and any reverse chamois for really lousy weather, but for snow it has to be commando. If snow gets too deep for commando, I must admit I go with my Rancourt shearling lined calf high boots. But you all saw me snowplowing in Indys on commando.........I am one of those who still get "spooked" wearing shell in snow/slush even though my gut says they will fare better than calf...
