Looking for women’s winter casual shoes. Like a low boot or something without a heel. Fine with shoes ties. Something for jeans, leggings, etc. Any suggestions much appreciated.

Campers shoes are so comfortable and long lasting
Dansko has some low boots I used to wear daily for work at a hotel, very comfortable and never seemed to wear out
I love love love my Merrell’s and Salomon’s. I’ve had one of my pairs since like 2002. Fur lined (I’m in Minnesota lol) or not. Example:

These look awesome and so love Merrells. Thank you!
Yeah I realized the first link was more like slipper / clog ones so I updated it. These are better. Keen is another fave of mine.
I really like Dansko. Sandals, clogs (especially clogs - can’t have enough of them), boots. If I had to pick one brand that would be it!
Just found some cute ones. They hold up pretty well? I keep my shoes for a couple decades at least, lol.
I came across those. Out of my price range but they looked great.
I will say that Sierra Trading Post sometimes gets seconds (small errors that are hardly noticeably, if at all) for a reduced price. So keep your eye on that if you’re interested and maybe you’ll find something in your range at some point. 🙂 I’ve also had good luck with Vionic. Also a little pricey but certainly not quite as pricy. Not literally BIFL but mine have lasted 4-5 years so far.
They are my go to for quick shoes during fall, winter, and spring.
One thing I recommend is buying a leather waterproofing and cleaning kit and treating them, especially if you get the suede ones. I've had my pairs for about 6 years and they are going strong!
Love my Merrell Jungle Mocs
Consider Olukai. I've owned and loved a pair of their leather slippers for a couple of years now and approve of the durability. They're not Goodyear welt BIFL quality, but they're not in that price bracket, either. They're solid and comfortable.
I have some Trask booties that are really cute.
Hush puppies has some really good boots that are waterproof.
People really seem to like Blundstone a lot where I live. I don't have a pair but they seem very popular.
Closed toe Birkenstocks
I feel like any kind of well made chelsea boot is really versatile and long-lasting. You can wear them under a pantsuit for a classier look or under something casual as a chunky-but-elegant boot. I have a local leather brand that are lasting well but I know Doc Martens also makes a chelsea boot, and lots of other brands.
I second the Chelsea Boot for versatility and comfort. The Timberland Chelseas I bought about 5 years ago still look and feel great, even after heavy wear. If you want to get the most out of them, clean and apply a weather protectant to them at the end of each season, and repeat throughout the wear season as needed. Mine are suede so I regularly brush them too.
Not sure if they’ll fit bc I need a half sz up, but I think I scored! https://www.sierra.com/red-wing-6-heritage-classic-moc-toe-boots-leather-factory-seconds-for-women~p~1ftrd/?filterString=womens-boots~d~255%2F&merch=prod-rec-prod-prod1FTRD
Woo hoo!! Nice job! Wish they had them in my size.
I recently got these Chelsea boots from vagabond Chelsea bootsthought they’d be hard to wear for the first time and need some time to break in but they were incredibly comfortable for me the first time wearing it! And the price isn’t that ridiculous too

I like propet boots a lot. I also have wide feet with a deep toe box so they are especially helpful for that but they also look nice!
