At what temperature do we pack away the furry boots for the year?
Not trying to ruffle anyone's feathers (or fur), but when is it considered too warm to wear furry boots (I refer to them as "caveman boots")? I was strolling through one of the local big box stores that people love to hate and was behind this young lass who was wearing her caveman boots. It was almost 80° and my feet were sweating in Nikes, so I can only imagine what her feet were doing. I thought about offering her some water so she didn't dehydrate from all the sweating her feet must have been doing.
I also wonder why people wear caveman boots in the French Quarter. I see them parading down Bourbon Street, sloshing through pee and vomit with these feet mops. The fur is in contact with everything on the pavement, just soaking it up like a Swiffer. Do they burn the boots when they get home, throw them in the washer, or just continue to wear pee infused boots? Inquiring minds want to know.
