9 Best Winter Boots Every Woman Should Buy in Her Life, Picked by Outdoor Working Experts

I have a confession to make. I don’t have snow boots. And after New York City’s recent snowstorm, my socks were soaked and my toes were frozen as I walked into the office every day.

To help you avoid my fate, I asked people who spend a lot more time outdoors than I do for their recommendations for comfortable, long-lasting boots. These include ski instructors, dog sled guides, and a former National Geographic “Adventurer of the Year.”

Here are nine of the best women’s winter boots you can buy in your lifetime, including one that lasted me through a 24-day winter camping trip in northern Sweden. Whether you’re shopping for end-of-season sales or gearing up for next season, now is never a bad time to invest in quality shoes.

In the past I have been sponsored by Merrell, but now I am not and I will definitely continue to purchase these Merrell boots again and again as they are actually the best winter boots for working out outdoors. I also had Sorel and Columbia boots, but I went ahead and chose them. Warm, waterproof, and sturdy enough for outdoor hikes in the snow. – Mirna Valerio, trail runner and former National Geographic “Adventurer of the Year”
