<p>@ runner, I’m from Ft. Lauderdale </p>

<p>enjoying a lovely 40 degrees right now =]</p>

22

<p>I’m also from Miami.</p>

<p>Try buying online or from catalogs from places like L.L. Bean, Lands End, etc.</p>

<p>Also, try looking in Miami at Peter Glenn Ski & Sports Shop. They have plenty of winter gear and a wide selection of shoes & gloves.</p>

<p>Every one keeps talking about good snow boots… </p>

<p>What qualifies boots as good for snow? (i.e. what specifications/qualities do they need?)</p>

24

<p>Rubber sole. Waterproof. Insulation. High ankle.</p>

<p>[Waterproof</a> and Breathable GORE-TEX® Outerwear - GORE-TEX Products](<a href=“http://www.gore-tex.com/remote/Satellite/home]Waterproof”>http://www.gore-tex.com/remote/Satellite/home)</p>

<p>Gore-tex always has a good selection of shoes.</p>

<p>Also, if you think you have the winter blues, buy one of those lamps that helps by mimicking sunlight. Personally, I can’t STAND those february days where you look outside, everything is gray, and there are no leaves on the trees; i bought one, and it seems to be working thus far.</p>

<p>For reference, as I asked the same thing when I was accepted to Mich:</p>

<p>good snow boots: anything BUT uggs. uggs are good for when it is cold and DRY. any form of moisture destroys them</p>

<p>Argh. I’m freezing in Florida right now! And it’s only 40 degrees outside! </p>
