Nasty weather is nasty whether you're dressed appropriately or not. The other
problem is that you're wrapped up like a bear to keep out the cold then you
get on a packed train with the heating on the supernova setting and you
roast. Or end up carrying a coat and jumper. Either way its a pain.

[2] I don't get that either. Why not buy a comfortable pair of
practical shoes? They can look as smart as the silly kind that crush
your toes or rub down the backs of your feet.

Nothing beats trainers for comfort. Thats why you don't see athletes running
in "practical shoes".
