Does the 20065 not work well in the snow? That's one of the main reasons I bought them.

I have the cap toe and cordovan versions of the LLBean Boots. I also have two other pair of Chippewa work boots with the Gumlite sole. We live on a few acres of hilly land. I wear the Gumlite sole boots all the time working outside (never really worn inside) and seldom slip unless I'm walking thru some really slick mud.The Vibram on the LLBean model might be a bit more 'grippy' than the Vibram GumLite sole on the 20065. It could just be the wax that's used floors at my office, but in my 20065s, I can skid like Tom Cruise in Risky Business if I try hard enough. I'm sure it'd be fine in snow, but I'll feel more comfortable with a lugged sole ... and the extra 2" of leather will help with climbing through snow mounds at the curb (while keep the snow from falling into the boot).
That color looks nice! Did you use Meltonian #145 Burgundy?
