I decided my other alternative to Ugg boots were just too £££. They were Merrell, but silly money!

I like the idea of Ugg's and how they are nice and casual, but just not totally for me.

My other boot contender is this one

Please rate - which do you prefer?

[Faaamily]

Neither to my taste, to be honest, but the second ones are at least am attempt to be stylish. The first ones look like slippers. Sorry!

[HowToShoutSoHusbandsWillListen]

I'm sorry but IMO they are both minging

[winnybella]

Neither, sorry.

[BunnyLeBOOwski]

Both minging but pair no.2 marginally better.

Look at the picture of pair 1 with the models legs in. All she's missing is <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=www.transport-impacts.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/05/shopping_trolley_bag.jpg&imgrefurl=www.transport-impacts.com/category/comforts/tips/page/2/&usg=__vprjBSNFOEtPavnDe39Cno51WJ4=&h=360&w=360&sz=23&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=z_FSqgoxdfXjnM:&tbnh=150&tbnw=150&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dshopping%2Btrolley%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1680%26bih%3D905%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=rc&dur=266&ei=hsrKTL27KcSbOp3c4JEB&oei=hsrKTL27KcSbOp3c4JEB&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=36&ved=1t:429,r:13,s:0&tx=51&ty=83" rel="nofollow noindex" target="_blank">this.

Pair 2 look like something you'd wear to go bear-trapping. <a class="break-all" href="http://www.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=stylemeet.com/img/product/16/p_40922.jpg&imgrefurl=stylemeet.com/products/index%3Fbrand_id%3D2270&usg=__13-s7qXyTGbxPM-XwBaePCRzG58=&h=345&w=260&sz=9&hl=en&start=0&zoom=1&tbnid=kXNG37_Do37KEM:&tbnh=146&tbnw=110&prev=/images%3Fq%3Dbear%2Btrapper%2Bhat%26um%3D1%26hl%3Den%26sa%3DN%26biw%3D1680%26bih%3D905%26tbs%3Disch:1&um=1&itbs=1&iact=hc&vpx=1170&vpy=51&dur=2611&hovh=259&hovw=195&tx=128&ty=129&ei=tsrKTJ_NNpGfOumk4IgB&oei=tsrKTJ_NNpGfOumk4IgB&esq=1&page=1&ndsp=50&ved=1t:429,r:7,s:0" rel="nofollow noindex" target="_blank">This would fulfil the look.

Hideous old lady here - and I think the first ones look like carpet slippers.

Second ones are slightly better if you like that sort of thing (am a heels sort of person really).

[DinahRod]

Neither

Have you looked a rocket dog, emus or even M&S?

[Pinkflipflop]

Appreciate your honesty!!

Any suggestions for casual tan boots?

[3thumbedwitch]

really don't like the first pair, the second are too slouchy for my taste but better than the granny footmuffs that are the first ones.

Have you checked out the rest of the Schuh site? They have 24 brown ankle boots of widely differing styles - can't believe that none of them appealed more than the footmuffs.

[Doyouthinktheysaurus]

The first pair are an abomination!

Second pair not quite so bad but not great.

Sorry

[sparkle1977]

Not keen on either pair I'm afraid.

Wallis might be worth a shot or Barratts.

[theagedparent]

I quite liked the first pair!

[Chatelaine]

They are slippers, not boots, Hushpuppies often have lovely stuff, so do Clarks. But if you want boots (for walking)? these aint it. They don't have enough support for your arches. If you feel they will do the job than all the above is irrelevant.

[pickledbabe]

yep, both are old-lady ugly boots.

sorry.

[bigTillyMint]

Both are hideous!

[TracyK]

I'd quite like the 1st pair - if they weren't so flat.

[Marlinspike]

The first ones look a bit pixie-ish? Not really to my taste, and IMHO uggs should not be worn outside the house! Second pair are OK, but I have seen much nicer on the high street (River island / dorothy perkins)

[amothersplaceisinthewrong]

The first pair are incredibly hip and stylish - you did say you were 75+ didnt' you?

OP, are you channelling your inner Minnehaha?
