Freedom Lace is a nice, lightweight winter option from Bogs. The uppers are made of waterproof leather, and combined with a seam-sealed construction promises to keep you dry. A warm lining promises a temperature rating of -30°C (although take that with a grain of salt, as temperature ratings are dependent on several factors, including socks, circulation, activity level, etc.). Six eyelets plus a speed hook at the top help get a snug fit, and an inside zipper reduces the work to get them on and off. All of this weighs less than a kilogram for the pair.
Available at Glebe Trotters.
*(The grey colour has a slight green tint that is not overly obvious in the pictures)*
Sizing recommendation: We find these fit a bit on the big side, so if you generally find yourself as a half-size, we recommend the half-size down.
We have researched numerous shoe size guides online and in turn have developed what we think is one of the most accurate guides you will find anywhere. Please keep in mind this is before considering how each individual shoe fits, so use this as a starting point.
Unless otherwise indicated when choosing your size, we use the US sizing system for our footwear.

All orders are available as "Local Pick Up" at our brick and mortar location (860 Bank Street, Ottawa, Ontario) if desired. If choosing this option, you will be notified within 24 hours as to when your purchase should be ready for pickup.
Delivery
We have added an Ottawa area "Glebe Trotters Delivery" option at checkout. One of our staff will personally drive your purchase out to you, which will usually reduce the wait for your purchase by a couple of days. In certain cases, the delivery fee may be partially refunded (after purchase) depending on your proximity to the store.

Most orders will be processed and shipped within 24 hours of the placement of the order. You will be notified when your order is being shipped. If we are unable to ship your order within the 24 hours we will contact you accordingly.

We have separate shipping rates for our footwear (and bags, belts, socks, etc.) and for our shoe care & accessories. Unfortunately if you have an order with something from both of these groups, our website will automatically combine these shipping rates. However, we will ship all items together and refund any unnecessary shipping costs to you (after purchase).
Canada Post provides our shipping services. Delivery times and costs vary depending upon location and the number of items being shipped. All available rates will be shown when you reach the checkout.

We ship all over the world (with a few exceptions)! Rates will be made available during the checkout process. We are not responsible for any other duties or additional state taxes you may incur.
Returns
Our policy lasts 30 days. If 30 days have gone by since your purchase unfortunately we cannot offer you a refund or exchange*.
