Great minds think alike! I have those JC boots but without the fleece and in black and I've worn them every day for the last two months. Fleece is nice but you can save yourself $50 if you forgo it — and handy tip: the straps are very loose, so the panels really do flop down. In other words: I'm not sure the fleece will make much of a warming difference.

I am saving my money so I can buy a pair of JC Litas! So excited!
