...above-ankle, granny-style length for streetwear, to be worn over high-heeled boots. Still, there was much to applaud (if not to afford): daytime sportswear that emphasized soft, easy cardigan suits and jackets; fox-trimmed jackets and sweaters to go with classic sporty pleated skirts and big tentlike shelter coats.

TIME's Boston correspondent Philip Taubman is one such purist. Last week he and his wife Felicity tromped the Long Trail in Vermont's Green Mountains, their enthusiasm only slightly dampened by a chilling rain and acres of mud. Herewith Taubman's defense of nature...
