Cold Feet

No. 6 Clog Boots

Everyone loves to gripe about the cold weather.

And as much as you like to join in (stupid rain!), you must admit that there are a few good things about the crummy climate (cozy sweaters to cover poundage, snow storms to explain tardiness).

To add to the list: plunging temperatures provide an excuse to wear ridiculously silly yet practical footwear (for once). Like these clog boots — exceptionally comfortable with warm sheepskin lining and a flexible wood base that makes walking the mean streets easy.

They’re available in light brown and black, with a slight heel and round toe. But like all must-have items, they’re nearly impossible to find. Luckily, you can special order a pair exclusively at No. 6.

And though that means you’ll have one less thing to complain about, we have faith you’ll find something out there to bemoan.

Available at No. 6, 6 Centre Market Place, between Broome and Grand Streets (212-226-5759 or no6store.com).
