You can be sure your kid's feet will stay warm and dry in these boots!  The waterproof boot has a removable felted bootie inside that keeps little feet warm and dry and the boots perform excellently without bulk, excess weight or lots of complicated fastening hardware.  Laces tighten easily through the large d-rings and the tongue doesn't get in the way because it is one piece, integrated into the boot shaft.  These are listed as a boy's boot but my daughter says they are the best she's had so far!
