Moved from the beach to the mountains and need to prep for the upcoming winter. Gonna be hitting the thrift stores and online markets trying to find some snow boots. Where I’m at it doesn’t get super cold very often so I don’t think I need heavy insulation. I just need traction in snow and on ice. What brands should I keep my eye open for, to get a boot that will last me a few seasons?

    If you need traction, just buy traction. Kahtoola and YakTrax come to mind first, they slip over any shoe or boot and embed into the ice/snow. If you want actual boots, then just purchase anything that can be resoled Andy is in generally decent shape.
