    I have Velcro fastenings on my footwear and so only have a fringe on the front of the plaid - which I wear slightly shorter than the end which goes back over my shoulder as it is such a nuisance if it gets caught in the grip of the fastening.

    At least I wear it wrapped loose enough so there is no danger of strangulation.

    These are the boots I'm trying next time. A person in Portugal sells them on Etsy. Made to order. Based on foot measurements. They're rather expensive, and non-returnable. But I ordered them anyway. I'll let you know how they work out.
