Gaiters

I ride a clipless fixie, so I need something with a shallow enough toe to easily get in and out of my toecage. I really prefer boots, too, considering that they're tall and keep snow, slush, and icewater off of my leg up to a higher level than normal shoes.

So, any recommendations? The Half-Year of Darkness is approaching quickly and it's already wet and ****ty outside. Thanks a lot!
Well you could choose a shorter shoe or a short boot (like an MTB boot) and cover them with gaiters.
