I needed zero drop boots to wear both to work and also for barn chores and horseback riding. The Xero Tari fits the bill on both parts. Tough enough for barn work and riding, stylish enough to wear with a skirt or dress slacks for work Size up to wear with thick socks and they'll get you through some winter weather. But they are best for three and a half-seasons, not the worst of winter weather. I did use waterproofing spray and they are fine for wet snow and have decent grip on ice. I have transitioned to all zero drop shoes and boots now, and it's made a huge difference for my degenerative hip.
Can't recommend these enough have both colours, and have the rain boot version.
