Mine were delivered yesterday too.

Dh doesn't understand why I bought them as they are exactly the same as my ash trainers (which were in the sale but he still doesnt know the full price Blush).

Also he doesn't understand why I have bought winter boots in the summer. (cos
They were cheap)

Also doesnt think I will wear them. when I never am without my converse superga ash trainers. Can u tell I love this kinda shoe?

Men - I will never understand them.

But my size 6 are a good fit and v comfy. First outing at the weekend I think. Grin

Thanks to op for a great find and to others for the code.

Mine arrived yesterday too - my son suggested I buy them - are they really suitable for a middle-aged woman?

Really comfy though

TheHouseofMirth · 26/04/2012 21:13

What are we all wearing them with?

trixymalixy · 26/04/2012 21:15

Humph, I'm v jealous of all of you with lovely new shoes!

ruby22 · 26/04/2012 21:24

Me too. Really wish I'd ordered the brown and/or ordered the smaller size for the black. So today I returned the black ones which are just too big, like someone else I felt like I was trying to convince myself they weren't too big. I then contacted customer services who said that as all stock now sold (to MNers no doubt!) any returns would go to their outlets for sale.

So... resigned myself to the fact I won't get any and ordered these not quite as nice but still ok instead, don't think they have the fur lining either. I ordered a size smaller too. They're all out of hairslides now too!

ruby22 · 26/04/2012 21:25

In the black not the gold!

cybbo · 27/04/2012 07:36

A nice man in a van brought me a humungous box this morning, ten minutes before I left for work

TheHouseOfMirth I am wearing mine with indigo straight legged jeans/plain top/scarf

Dropdeadfred · 27/04/2012 13:05

Nice one fourththousandholes!

trixymalixy · 27/04/2012 13:40

Does anyone have a size 6 they are sending back?

cybbo · 27/04/2012 14:00

Coo, ou know I ordered 3 pairs Blush one (brown) before knowing about the code and two after (black and brown)

WELL the cheaper brown pair are a 7! Not an 8 which I ordered. So thankfully I have the extra brown pair which ARE an 8 and I will send 7's back

Phew

What a boring story

first day wearing the lovely boots

and feet are toasty and comfy

but would say my labels say £49.00 too as if that was the original price - have KG been advertising falsely and saying that these were £190? but were only ever £49.

a bargain though with £20 off but can't help but wonder......

RachelHRD · 28/04/2012 09:45

I took mine back to the shop yesterday as although I love the look of them they didn't really suit me. Assistant commented as she refunded that they were a bargain at £29 as they had been £190 so I guess they were at some point!!! Have ordered some lovely purple converse laceless pumps instead for that elusive spring/summer Hmm

MorrisZapp · 28/04/2012 10:13

Trixy, am on phone so I can't pm, but have black 6's if you want them? I have worn them outdoors once.

Dropdeadfred · 28/04/2012 11:38

Ooh Rachel where did you get your purple converses???

teahouse · 28/04/2012 17:48

I guess I need some idea of what I can wear by Black ones with; I only have bootleg jeans and they look awful with those. But I do have thick black tights but help me someone...please

Panzee · 28/04/2012 18:14

I wore mine today with bootlegs, although I think they're straighter than some bootlegs. They looked ok to me.

cybbo · 28/04/2012 18:33

Why do they look awful with bootleg jeans? Surely they just peek out of the bottom like Converse? Youre not tucking the jeans in, are you?

OP posts:
ChablisLover · 28/04/2012 18:56

I can see why they might look bad with bootcut jeans.

I always find that converse and these boots would need a slightly longer jean in a bootcut style.

I also find boyfriend jeans need to be a
Wee bit longer when wearing converse

I wore mine with Topshop marthas today love them so v comfy and warm on a coldish day.

cybbo · 28/04/2012 18:59

yy the length of the jean is CRUCIAL

Cant have any ankle flappers
