Whether you were doing the disco go-around in the 70s, or weren’t around at all,
thse retro-styled boots (which Lindsey Vonn
just sported at the Garmisch bib draw) are
a nostalgic nod to the days of hot dogging
that also keep your feet pretty darn hot.

Let’s face it: your cool old Chuck Taylors aren’t
going to hold up in the slush of a super G finish area
while you wait for your buddies to complete their
runs. So this winter snow sneaker (available in a
women’s style, too) is waterproof and insulated, and
has a specifically formulated winter grip sole to keep
you on your feet at the awards party, too.

So you’re dashing between the hot
tub and the condo, and you definitely
don’t want to slip in your swimsuit.
That’s when you slip on these boots,
which have excellent traction for the
ice, snow, and whatever else is out
there. And after a day of near-frostbite
conditions, your toes will warm up
nicely to the Omni-Heat insulation.

Didn’t make it to Chamonix for the World Cup
races this year? You can still look the part with
these classic fur boots that will look just as
good in city streets as in mountain villages.
