opinions on these please. to go with skirts and trousers. I'm hoping to get a black and a brown pair, don't have to be the same but need to be flat, sturdy and not too fussy.....

please help me! i was gutted when i tried on the mol boots by fly and they fitted in the foot and top of the leg but were really baggy round the ankle and looked awful. i was coveting them so much and i really need flat boots asap as I am wearing heels to work and don't want to!

I have a pair of these which come in black and brown. Next day delivery.

Don't like the Jones ones, they look clumpy. Also the ones called "smoke" in colour don't look a true black - does that matter? I like the flat, long Nature Sko or the ones from JL.

i don't know exactly how dark the smoke colour is but am going to hunt down my nearest store to go and have a look i think. if they are nearly black i reckon it would be ok. it would be to go with either a black skirt, black trousers or a black and grey dress so shouldn't be too much of a problem as I have a few charcoal coloured tops. it was the pale sole i wasn't too sure about. do you think it would really stand out or would just dirty up quickly and not really matter?

you have great taste.
love the natural shoe store ones.
have you considered YULE by Fly?
much more calf space, comfy and leg flattering.

thank you! no ones really ever said that to me before
I have seen the yule ones but haven't tried them on, might add them to my list, thanks for reminding me. I think they'd look good under trousers too.

You know what? I think the sizing makes such a different to the ankle fit on the Mols. I have the 5 and have skinny legs and they fit prefectly on ankle calk and foot. But my SILs friend has them in a 6, and - when I tried them on - they were massive on the ankle - significantly bigger than the 5s.

I have the Mes and the Mol and find the Mes to be snugger on the ankle, more generous around the calf.

hmm, i quite like the mes but they don't seem to have them in any of the shops round here to try them. it was a 5 in the mol i tried on. i'm supposed to be narrowing down my list not amking it bigger! i'd need to win the lottery to buy all these!
