1950s Totes Featherlight Rain Boots

It's a chilly, overcast, drizzly day here in Saint Louis. Though my fellow Saint Louisians probably won't agree with me (it was just announced that World Series Game 6 is cancelled due to the weather,) I just adore Autumn days like these. It's just drizzly and chilled enough to require a light jacket and boots, without being too uncomfortable for taking a leisurely walk to enjoy the foliage. How befitting, then, that I found these amazing 1950s rain boots at my favorite thrift store today:

I can't believe the box is in such great shape. These featherlight boots are all natural rubber, too, and look like they may have only been worn once or twice. They come in a little pouch that you could keep in your car or briefcase, just in case of foul weather. They slip right on over your shoes.

I love these so much, but unfortunately Alex's feet are a wee bit too small for them. They are sized for a 13/14 men's shoe size, and he wears an 11. I'll be putting them in the shop tonight for some other vintage boy to enjoy.
