I'll be in the UK in February (mainly in London and Oxford with a few days up in Manchester) and I understand that the past two Feburarys have seen a lot of snow.
As I'll be there on a workcation, I'll need to suit up on certain days.
Being from the tropics, I have absolutely no idea what kind of shoes to carry. I've searched around these forums, but none of the topics seem to apply specifically to English winter.
So with a suit, odd wool pants and smart jeans what do you chaps recommend?
I'm leaning towards galoshes, but I'm weary of snow piling up a bit.
I've seen Hunter boots but they look ridiculous with smarter wear IMHO; I can't imagine trudging around Oxford Street in them.
Alternatively, I could carry them with a pair of boots but if I pop in and out of offices, that'd probably involve a lot of changing?
Any links to websites where I could view options would help. I'm hoping not to go beyond US$150-200 too.
Cheers.
