I'm a single mom with 2 teenagers (boy, girl). I want to keep some footwear in the car for summer and winter to guard against breakdowns when driving through the Adirondacks. My kids generally choose VERY inadequate footwear, summer and winter. I have some wilderness training, the kids have practically none, but are heathy and take direction well in emergencies.
Which would be better to keep in the car: sneakers or waterproof hiking-type boots? Keep in mind that these would be inexpensive, and wouldn't be broken in (would include several pair of socks and many band aids etc per person). Initially I thought sneakers, but now I'm leaning toward inexpensive hiking style boots, which say they're waterproof. I've seen some in Target for $18.
Keep in mind that I'd LIKE to afford "the best of everything," but being wholly unable to afford that, would rather have SOMETHING other than the flip flips I know they'll be wearing.
