See those boots. They are mine. I bought them in 1997. I was 17. I worked at Bob's Stores. They were on the clearance rack. I had an employee discount. 16 years later - they are still trucking. A ton of stuff has happened in my life since 1997, so I might be wrong, but I want to say I paid $18 for them.
Don't you just love it when something lasts a long time? And gets a ton of use? You can't say that about many things these days - but I'm so happy and proud of my Columbia boots. I have never bought another pair of boots (well - unless you count the ones the Marines made me buy). Here's to another 16 years. I love you Columbia boots!
Confession..when you were living in Hawaii and some of your stuff was here (including boots), I would wear them when it snowed. I was sorry to see them go! This is like the Sisterhood of the Traveling Boots.
