While snow-covered streets and cozy evenings by the fireplace have their charm, frozen toes? Not so much. The right pair of winter shoes can make all the difference in keeping you warm and comfortable. At Wolky, we believe winter shoes should be more than just warm – they should be comfortable, durable, and stylish, too. After all, your feet deserve something nice to wear, and your eyes deserve something nice to see. Let’s talk about the best winter shoes that will keep your feet happy all season long!
Features of the best winter shoes
1 | Water-resistant
Winter often means snow, rain, and slush – basically, wet feet waiting to happen. A good pair of water-resistant shoes is a must. Look for styles made with high-quality leather and lined with comfortable materials to keep your feet dry and cozy. Bonus tip: Spray your shoes with a waterproof spray for extra protection!
💡 Wolky’s pick: The Akita WR
The Akita WR is a super comfortable boot with a warm lining for extra coziness on cold winter days. The lace-and-zip combination makes them easy to slip on and off, while the high-quality leather keeps your feet dry!
2 | Insulation
If you often suffer from cold feet, insulation is your best friend. Our boots with warm linings keep your feet toasty, even on extra chilly days. Want to spot our insulated boots easily? Look for the letters ‘WR’ in the name!
💡 Wolky’s pick: The Whynot WR
This boot is incredibly comfortable to walk in, and the Whynot WR protects not you’re your feet but also your ankle from the cold. Bonus? The footbed is also lined with warm material – wonderfully soft and extra cozy!
3 | Laces
Time to dig though the back of your closet for those thick, cozy socks. In winter, we often wear thicker socks than in summer, which can make shoes feel a bit snug. But don’t worry – lace-up shoes let you adjust the fit perfectly to your feet.
💡 Wolky’s pick: The Red Deer WR
The Red Deer WR isn’t just stylish – it’s one of our top picks for winter! The waterresistant upper helps keep moisture out, and the laces allow you to customize the fit for maximum comfort.
4 | Sturdy soles
Ice sidewalks can turn any stroll into a slippery adventure. To avoid unexpected falls, opt for shoes with sturdy soles. A strong grip helps you stay steady, even on slick surfaces.
💡 Wolky’s pick: The Ambient WR
The Ambient WR is one of our best winter shoes – for good reason! The flexible outsole offers excellent grip on any surface, it’s water-resistant, and it features laces for an adjustable fit. What more could you ask for?
