Tried them on today. I like them but not totally sure about the wedgy heel and spongy bit at the back. Would wear them with skinny jeans. They're black.

I've gone and ordered them from the website (didn't have my size in the store) because it says my size is low stock ... but if you all hate them I might just cancel or return!

No. They are too similar to the wedge boots I wore when I was about 14...

But if you like them, then get them.

(Also they look just like what the Spice Girls wore in their heyday!)

Personally, no but I am sure I have things in my wardrobe which you wouldn't like. Wait until you get them now and try them on.

Hahahahahahaha :D

Thanks

I have cancelled the order. If they are really this unpopular, and if I still like them after Christmas, they will probably be cheaper in the sale!

I have these and really like them! Shows what I know. Can only imagine that people have been sniggering at me for all these months Grin

Erm, a mum I know has these in grey, they're not my style at all but she looks fab in them. Shame to cancel the order, should have got them anyway and tried them on.

Sometimes, the photography does something weird to the item and doesn't show it in a good light,

Ps, they said 'sold out' when I clicked on your link. So they must be popular. Shock

I can't walk in wedges so a no from me, but they're sold out now, so they must be popular...or they only manufactured a few...

Yes, I like them. They're similar to a pair I got from ASOS a few months ago and they're really versatile.
Why would you cancel your order over a couple of strangers comments on the Internet? It's a shame you didn't try them.

Ni. There's a mum at the school wears something similar and I always think her feet look like golf clubs.

I am sure you are all dying for an update on this - I just bought these boots from Clarks in the sale - reduced from £80 to £32! A bit summery I suppose, but never mind.
