Winter Boot Review: LOWA Alba III by Lisa Ballard

Did you know that frostbite is, ironically, similar to a burn? There’s first degree, in which the skin turns red and tender after the stinging subsides; second degree, in which the skin blisters; and third degree, in which the skin turns black, similar to getting charred. 

I’ve suffered through the third-degree kind on the side of my right foot thanks to a particularly unkind day on the ski slopes. I had to sacrifice one of my Lowa hiking shoes, cutting out the side of the injury.
