If you wear Vans but are looking for aomwtuing a bit more outdoorsy, check out the SK8-Hi MTE 2.0 DX. Yeah, it seems like a mouthful, but what you’re getting is a mid-height shoe with MTE 360 technology featuring water-resistant leather and suede uppers, warm linings, and a heat retention layer.
Other features include UltraCush drop-in molded sockliner, Achilles cushion, rubber toe cap, tongue and heel pulls, and an all-new MTE 2.0 boot lug.
They’re offered in a few colors but the Black Woodland variant is the way to go.
These come recommended by longtime SSD reader JF.

Wore their previous MTE version in AK for 8 years. Can attest these shoes are great during the winter months.
I have those except I dont like how the toe cap is flat. It looks odd.
The rubber toe cap is what’s up man, keeps the snow and rain off the top of the shoe.. got these as my civ kicks for when my AO (PNW) gets all rainy and snowy.. love these.. the black woodland is more like MC black
