    Now I've switched to winter shoes though... If you can find a pair on sale they may actually end up being a better value (booties get worn and torn up pretty quickly and good ones cost about $50). Winter shoes are also many times better at keeping your feet warm and dry than any booties ever could be, so if you find you are spending any significant time in the wet and cold they are well worth it. Otherwise layering - sock liner, wool sock, shoe (seal the cleat holes with silicone from the inside of the shoe) and bootie is a good combo.
    What are your favorite winter shoes?

    ETA: I have a pair of booties (I forget the brand! Dang!) that velcro to themselves. They're OK warmth-wise, but they pretty much fell apart between when I got them in January and when I stopped wearing them around April. I recommend something that doesn't rely on velcro, and that has a strong reinforced toe. That tends to get battered when you put your foot on the ground.
