They are rain boots with a houndstooth pattern.  This is what hounds tooth is, according to Wikipedia, “Houndstooth, hounds tooth check or hound’s tooth (and similar spellings) is a duotone textile pattern, characterized by broken checks or abstract four-pointed shapes. The traditional colors are black and white, although now other colors are occasionally substituted for the black or the white.”

 There are many different styles available.  Many are made to compliment whatever you are wearing and are appropriate for going out or to work and even to play.  They have them in children’s sizes as well as adult sizes.  They have a cowgirl-up design, a Ladies City rain boots style that is appropriate for work or going out.
