Adventure Boots
Vathsala Aswathaman (+Video)
Summary:
After getting married in Colombo, Sri Lanka, my husband and I did some shopping for our journey to Canada. I spotted the most wonderful pair of light-weight, black boots. In my homeland, such boots are mainly for tourists and people going to the colder tea-growing areas. I would need these boots in Canada. They were a size 5: a perfect fit.
