But FYI, you don't have to settle for heavy rain boots either! Below, check out 10 shoes you can brave the rain in without having to sacrifice style over function!
1. Keds Triple Bandeau Leather
Tried and tested, Keds' leather sneakers are comfy and durable for any occassion. Yes, even during horrid heavy downpours! The Triple Bandeau Leather in particular has a triple decker sole that'll keep your feet dry from mini floods on the street, and with its leather finish, the murky rainwater will slide off your shoe instead of staining it black and leaving it wet like canvas sneakers do.
