Hi Dayna -- Two suggestions from a southerner who used to be a northerner. I would give the guys at LL Bean a call or vist their website. When I lived in Connecticut I had a pair of their boots for shoveling -- all rubber, thick fleecy lining, black and ugly but almost knee high, impervious to snow and slush. I bought them extra extra large and packed knee socks and ragg socks inside. They did the job when we had 3 and 4 feet of snow.Also, this might sound stupid but can you go to a hardware store and just buy those outer rubber boots that go up to and over your knees? I live in FL now; lots of people use rubber boots here when we have floods. I know their socks and shoes go inside. They're really ugly and look like they'd be fit for cleaning sewers -- but I'll bet they're solid rubber and would keep the snow off your feet. Good luck.
