I wear them proudly. The only issue with your plan is that the silky lining of my purse may get punctured by the sharp front points :(

You can either strap them to the outside of your pack or get some of those crampon point cap- thingys ang then put in your pack.

Grivel make s a pretty specialized pack for carrying fruitboots and stuff.

I've got an old CAMPUSA crampon case that opens up like a burrito. The Sportiva boots fit nicely inside and then I carry them beneath the lid of my pack.

Put wine corks on the points and strap them to the out side of the pack with hand warmers stuffed in the boots so they are toasty when its time to put them on.
Guideline #1: Don't be a jerk.
