What are rain boots?
A boot is a type of footwear and a specific type of shoe. Most boots mainly cover the foot and the ankle, while some also cover some part of the lower calf. Some boots extend up the leg, sometimes as far as the knee or even the hip. Most boots have a heel that is clearly distinguishable from the rest of the sole, even if the two are made of one piece. Traditionally made of leather or rubber, modern boots are made from a variety of materials. A women's rain boot is typically made specifically for wearing in the rain or wet environments. The goal of a rain boot is to keep the feet dry. Learn more about rain boots in the products area of our fashion influence section.
Rain boots should be at least water resistant and hopefully completely waterproof.
Women's yellow rain boots are produced yellow to improve visibility.
Why yellow?
Yellow is the most visible color to the human eye. We don't always want people looking at our feet, but it is important to have boots to grab attention on cloudy days. The human eye processes yellow first. When light hits a certain object, the object absorbs some of the light, while portion is reflected. This reflected light enters our eyes and reaches specialized receptors called cones. The cones get excited as the light hits them and they send signals to the brain. Different light wavelengths stimulate specific combination of cones, making us perceive the different colors. The red and green cones in our retina are highly sensitive to light. When we see yellow, both of these types of cones are excited so that they reach almost peak intensity. In addition, other parts of the eye reduce sensitivity to violet and blue light, making yellow appear to be the brightest among all the colors in the spectrum.
When it is raining it is important to be visible to cyclists, cars, & pedestrians.
