Why we love this deal

Everyone always talks about dressing properly for the season, and during the winter, scoring the right coat, hat, gloves, and clothing layers is key to staying warm. Oftentimes, though, we forget about how important the right pair of shoes is. Any closed-toe shoe is certainly preferred when the weather gets cold, but when conditions get wet or snowy, you need something that'll keep you dry too. With lots of great waterproof styles on the market right now, there's no need to settle for the stereotypical clunky, snow boots we grew up wearing. In fact, lots of quality shoes are just as cute as they are functional these days, and Macy's is selling a stylish pair for 51% off.

The Easy Spirit Erique Cold Weather Booties, originally $99, are only $49 for a limited time, and there's no better time to take advantage of the $50 discount than during one of the coldest months of the year.

Why do shoppers love it?

These winter booties make sure that you don't need to sacrifice style for protection. Measuring about 6.3 inches tall, these shoes are designed to keep your feet warm and dry through even the most unpredictable winter weather. The exterior of the shoe is made from water-repellent textile, which provides extra durability in the most extreme elements, allowing the shoes to stay in great condition after lots of repeated wear and keep your feet protected at the same time. The upper part of the boot has a shaft height of 4.72 inches. 

The interior of the shoe also has a textile lining that, in addition to providing warmth, is comfortable on the feet and won't chafe or irritate the foot or ankle areas. That, combined with removable cushioned insoles, offers interior support and keeps feet pain-free, even after long hours of standing or wear. The shoes are advertised as orthotic-friendly with great arch support. 

The bottom of the shoe, which has a 1.57-inch block heel, is made from thick, sturdy rubber, which provides traction on slick surfaces and contributes to the durability of the shoe. It is flexible, so you can move around with ease, but it's not too flimsy to the point where the shoes lack any sort of support.

The booties are available in five different colors and all have a stitched design along the side, as well as cozy fleece lining around the shoe opening. Although the shoe works as a slip-on, there is a button detail that can be "fastened" to make the shoe even more secure on the foot. 

Details to know

• Material: Textile, rubber, and fleece.
• Colors: Light Brown, Dark Brown Soil, Black Suede, gray, and Dark Blue.
• Sizes: The booties are available in sizes 5 through 11.

Shoppers love the style and attractive look of these booties. They praise them for being "pretty comfortable" and appreciate that although they are lightweight, they are "sturdy and warm." The boots have great arch support and are form-fitting but not overly tight on the feet. Shoppers are pleased they can wear them all day or for hours at a time with no pain or irritation.
