The Sorel Emelie III Chelsea Bootie - Women's is a waterproof boot for casual wear. This durable boot is made with full-grain leather or suede, and all options are waterproof with seam-sealed construction to keep feet dry. A four inch shaft provides coverages just over the ankle, while gore panels (or felted gore) make on and off easy. The molded Evertread rubber outsole provides the necessary traction on city streets, with a one inch heel and three quarter inch platform for a decent boost in height.
