Personally, I think J Crew is over priced for it's quality (or lack there of.)  I'd spend the extra money on something taht would make it through a few winters and keep my feet warm & dry.

 

What about Columbia?

I live in Minnesota, my snow boots are Columbia and my old ones are Sorel. They never wear out.
