Common Sense and just plain old humility should guide most people.

Answer
Really? I don't know, I don't give other people's footwear that much thought. If someone wants to advertise that he and his money were so quickly parted, it's fine with me. At least the homeless know who to hit up.

Out of curiousity, what would be appropriate attire for such an occasion, in your refined tastes? An old pair of holey Keds and an overcoat that smells like pee?

Can you suggest good snow shoes to hike?

I thought hiking snow shoes are like big shoes with spikes underneath them as hikers in TV have.
But when I look up sports authority and amazon, snow hike shoes looks like flaps to be attached underneath normal shoes.

Am I mistake or what. Those big shoes with spikes is for snow mountain climbers and not for normal snow hikers?

Answer
Yeah, there's two kinds: boots that are more traditional which you add studs or cramp ons to (like YackTrax), or the traditional snow shoe that looks like an oversized tennis racket. Obviously, the more traditional style of winter boot isn't going to do a thing if you're hiking through deep snow, but if you're on hard pack, they're terrific.

Here's a good link for the more traditional boots: http://outside.away.com/outside/gear/gear.tcl?gear=hiking-boots&gear_cid=350161. Note that you'll need to buy some YackTrax or cramp ons separately.

Here's a good link for the snow shoes: http://outside.away.com/outside/gear/buyers-guide-winter-2009/gear-year-easton-artica-backcountry-snowshoes.html.
