Feels like a dumb question, but I haven't ever worn a pair of boots that didn't hurt in some way. Is this just a feature of boots, or am I doing something wrong?

I wear Doc's a lot but never in winter! They're just ice skates in disguise.

I've only slipped over in my current pair once in 4 years or so - but I'm in the UK so winter boots for me are more about warmth and rain resistance than snow!

Ah! Makes sense. Here we get snow by the meter. Even in the city on plowed sidewalks Doc's just don't cut it unfortunately.
