I've used these for two seasons, about once or twice a year, as I don't live in a snowy region. The vinyl parts have peeled or are peeling due to aging, but there are no holes inside, so they're still usable! Even children who aren't used to snow never complained about cold feet while wearing these. The boa lining seems a little discolored. The soles still have plenty of tread. As it's getting colder, I hope those who understand that these are used items and show signs of wear will consider purchasing them. I am not responsible for any injuries resulting from slipping while wearing these. Snow boots, rain boots, winter, snow play, snow, snowy region.
