ABSTRACT:
An article of footwear includes an outer boot having a sole and an upper that together define a volume for receiving and protecting a wearer's foot against external elements, an outer waterproof bootie sized and shaped to fit snugly within the volume, and an inner bootie disposed within the outer bootie. The outer bootie has a waterproofing layer impervious to penetration by water for keeping the wearer's foot dry in wet conditions, and a thermal insulating layer for preventing thermal loss. The inner bootie includes another thermal insulating layer for further preventing thermal loss.
