Shoes for rainy weather

Hi

I need some shoes that I can wear on days that it is not raining but are good on rainy days (so no boots..) looking at below $100. BTW is suede ok for snowy/rainy weather if I use some sealing material?

Thanks!

Suede is not okay, and under 100$ neither. Just get a pair of timberlands or wtv

Those LL Bean duckies are pretty cool. I'm trying to win a pair on eBay before I actually have to drive out to a store because they're so cheap.

I don't know that I'd suggest Docs for rainy weather, unless you go over the seams with a lot of Sno-Seal or whatever. They're not real waterproof by default. I've had a couple pairs that would do all right in light showers but tended to leak when an actual heavy rain started. Personally, I just wear whatever unless it's totally pouring. Then it's Bean boots.

I have a pair of Blundstone chisel tip Chelsea boots that I bought specifically for the rainy west coast winters. So far they're working well for me.
