Your son is right!!

RIELOVESBACARDI · 30/08/2007 13:53

HOW BIG ARE YOUR FEET

thomcat · 30/08/2007 13:55

Clodhoppers.

Big, heavy, clompy shoes that some nutter thought would suit with no backs, why???????????

No, no, no.

lulumama · 30/08/2007 13:56

I like them ! i do !

but then i also love crocs ...

thomcat · 30/08/2007 13:57

I don't mind crocs, but that's cos crocs are all about comfort and weigh nothing.
They look like ten tonne clodhoppers! Sorry!!!!

lulumama · 30/08/2007 13:57

the boots are good too!

paolosgirl · 30/08/2007 13:59

Love fat face, and love the shoes.

Just be careful what you wear them with...

DumbledoresGirl · 30/08/2007 14:00

You lot are being too hard. They are ok if you like clogs (which I don't). I like the colour and stitching details, but not the sole (or the fact that they are clogs!)

DumbledoresGirl · 30/08/2007 14:01

The boots, I lurve.

FlameBatfink · 30/08/2007 14:03

I like your son....

MerlinsBeard · 30/08/2007 14:05

paolosgirl · 30/08/2007 14:23

Did I mention once or twice that we've got a fat face outlet here?

heifer · 30/08/2007 14:23

I think your son has better taste in shoes than you do

Clogs or crocs - god help you....

LIZS · 30/08/2007 14:28

DumbledoresGirl · 30/08/2007 14:36

MrsSpoon, you and me both. Would buy the skirt shown with the boots too if I had any money whatsoever.

alardi · 30/08/2007 14:48

I like the shoes but not the boots. Don't like false fur / wool overflows... doesn't it get dirty and look tatty easily?

helenelisabeth · 30/08/2007 15:20

This thread has made me laugh my head off! Thanks, just what I needed, getting fed up as 39 weeks with LO!

NomDePlumeCantFindTheCatch · 30/08/2007 15:21

they are horrid.

Sensible Shoes are rarely attractive
