Nothing can make a woman feel like she lives in the lap of
21st Century luxury quite like plugging in her winter snow boots. There’s
something obscenely modern—and secret agent-like—about charging up your kicks
before you hit the town. I not embarrassed to admit that I felt like a
superhero wearing Jambu’s VOLT heated boots. A style hero, that is. —
After unseasonably mild temperatures, NYC’s thermometer has
gone back down to its rightful resting place, so I tried the boots one recent
raw night. The thermo ambient design with on-board heating system kept my feet considerably
warm while the signature piped accent offered a plush, wintry aesthetic. I was
comfy; I walked with confidence. I was ready to take on the evil forces of slush and the muck.
In addition to being water resistant with All Terra Traction
outsoles, the VOLT has some state-of-the-art features—including a warming
system that keeps your feet up to 20% toastier for up to five hours of outdoor
play (or fighting style crime) and a heated memory foam footbed for maximum comfort. That’s some kind of podiatric pillowy-goodness.
And while I didn’t have to heroically brave snowbanks and slush puddles
on my recent evening walk, I’ll be sure to save the day in January and
February.
