Heeled Combat Boots To Kick Some Major Winter Ass In

We imagine that William Wallace never shouted this, but our rallying winter cry has always been "They may take our sunshine, but they'll never take... OUR HEELS!" And every season, it's the same search—a pair of heeled boots that we can navigate slippery sidewalks in without resorting to heavy clunkers. Heeled combat boots still rank among our must-have shoes for winter, especially when they're made in weather-proof materials, and a slim shape that won't make your hiking-sock-swathed feet look like meat cleavers. Here are our favorite heeled combat boots for women to suit every budget and taste.
