I'm an attorney in Miami, but recently I’ve had a lot of winter travel to the Midwest and New England, including for court appearances. I’m struggling with what shoes to wear. Wearing my pumps on icy, uneven sidewalks doesn’t seem safe, and there’s no way to squeeze my winter boots into my court bag. So what do attorneys wear to court in snowy climates? Are there court-appropriate winter shoes?

This is tough with the suitcase space! I find a lot of people up north will wear sneakers and bring shoes in a purse. Could you fit both a pair of sneakers and your pumps in your bag? Otherwise, maybe a flat boot you could wear on the plane as well - an ankle boot style?

La Canadienne or Aquatalia boots. No pumps will work in the Midwest in winter.

I wear boots and bring pumps for the office. I have a cute water resistant tote bag to keep the boots in during the day.

I used to wear Sorel black leather boots/wedges. They have amazing tread for slippery ice and snow. They don’t make as many styles that can be deseed up/professional anymore unfortunately, but nobody will notice under a pair of long slacks as long as they’re leather and all black.
