9 Rain Boots to Get You Through Fall That Aren’t Hunters
Having to commute to work on a rainy day is the absolute worst. Here you are, just trying to be the boss babe you know you’re destined to be, when Mother Nature interrupts with a downpour. You have to contend with the dreary weather, but also trudge through the slush and mud on the way, resulting in wet socks and a broken spirit. So. Much. Yuck. Worse, you’ve noticed that like, every single woman you work with has the same pair of Hunter rain boots. How boring is that? A rainy day doesn’t have to be such a downer, though. Show everyone you’re way beyond #basic by donning some wellies that stand out from the crowd. Here are nine rain boot options that are just as good as Hunters and won’t cramp your rainy-day style.
