2011 Lois Boots for rain protection

Apparently it was raining almost quite everyday here, so decided to get a shoe that can provide protection to water. One day we went to Queensbay Mall and saw this boots and tried it on. After a while, I decided on this model as I fits me pretty well. Low heel and close cut, leather (according to salesman) I do not think so. Some parts maybe. Overall very comfortable. So decided to own it. Fist ever.
