I have the sand and the black. My sand ones have held up really well through Canadian winters. I think that you should get the colour that you most gravitate towards as all of colours are more or less neutrals and will match with whatever you wear.

Gaucho. It's a unique chestnut brown.

My first pair (over 10 years ago) was sand, then chestnut, baby blue, baby pink, black, choco, and I recently ordered grey. Only colors I didn't care for were baby blue and baby pink. All the other colors are great and I love them all to pieces.

So I'm thinking short black or grey and tall chestnuts at this point. I also want to get a pair of cardy's.
I don't care what anyone says, I think they look fashionable and they also have the comfort factor. Can't wait to get them. <3

I strongly recommend darker colors, having lived in Scotland before where people walk much much more than here in US, it can get quite slushy and dirty. The Cardy looks cute but it doesn't hold up in Scottish wet weather just a heads up.

Thanks for the tip. I'm defo going with dark colours. Sand is nice but I'd be constantly checking there were no dirty marks etc.

Thanks everyone.

Oh and in Scotland since you have more rain and fewer daylight hours in winter than here in US (except Alaska) it can be a pain drying anything.. I had to dry all wet stuff including boots over my room heater it was a hassle when I forget to stow them away and they become a fire hazard.
