Rain or shine, show these boots a good time
FORT WORTH, Texas - Quick: When was the last time you heard the word “rain,” and you thought: “Fun!”
Think back to your childhood: Rain was about puddles, splashing and turning the world into your personal water park.
This season, it’s raining rain boots, and they’re a fabulous way to get a new perspective on precipitation. Rain boots are comfy, practical, and, best of all, they’re also now cute in colors that pack a punch. Rain boots have gone way beyond the traditional dark green Wellingtons favored by the British upper crust. Choose a cowboy boot, a riding boot, a flat heel or a mid-calf length. Pick a pattern ranging from floral fantasies and Pucci prints to prancing puppies or edgy tattoos.
And they aren’t just for rain anymore. Tuck your sweat pants into rain boots on dewy mornings while you’re checking on your garden. Slip into them for a Saturday-morning grocery run. And if the day’s plans call for outdoor activity and the heavens are opening up, well, just enjoy the muddiness of it all, and yes, have some fun.
