I can so see wearing them when it's cold. My 'snow' boots don't look like 'snow' boots and I'll wear them when it's cold and raining.

I can see wearing them after surfing/beach~warm up the feet.

The only reason I wouldn't give the kids a hard time for wearing them with a uniform would be on the very cold days. But, I am not hip on uniforms.

I would think, though, if those girls are walking a lot outside and need the warmth, that the shoes might be clunky and they should wear more comfortable walking shows with tights/leggings, etc. Just my opinion.
