Ok, here's what I'd like:

  • just below knee length, not mid-calf
  • dark brown
  • smooth leather, not suede - where I live, suede would be destroyed in a few rainfalls
  • max 2" heel (I'm fairly tall) but NOT flat
  • block heel or solid kitten - not a skinny heel
  • square or round toe box - not pointy toes (ouch)

I haven't been able to find anything that works so far so I'm throwing myself on the mercy of you lovely S&B people!

Thanks

Do you have a budget?

LittlePandaBear · 21/08/2012 21:51

These any good? Jones Bootmaker

Or you could choose your calf width with these: duo

When does the wine arrive?Grin

Umm... well... for a really good pair I'd be willing to shell out a bit.
Preferably less than $300.

Shoot - sorry - I forgot to ring the "not in UK" bell. I'm in Canada. But I don't mind ordering from another country.

I'm fairly slim. Average calves, nice ankles. Not skinny, not fat.

OP, how about these: lovely boots
Lovely DH has agreed to get me these for my birthday :) I am in the US,and Nordstroms will order them in (they carry other Frye boots). Dont know if you have Nordstroms in Canada, but im sure that there is an equivalent department store.

Oh they're lovely
I splashed out on some beautiful really wild Spanish boots but they were dearer

I got these from Javari online last year, still loving them. Range of colours. Javari good place to look generally I think.

Hope link works, am on phone but if not, Look for Fly London Mistry.

These?

Perhaps not dark enough. I just bought em for this winter. Had H by Hudson last winter too and they're still going strong and a lot darker than when I started wearing them. Ankle boots those were though.

Jacksmania · 22/08/2012 17:58

Ohhh, some of these are lovely!

I do want a heel - about 2" - so no flats. Haven't found the perfect one yet. Keep 'em coming - you ladies are wonderful!

BTW the wine has arrived. Please look over there ---> the wine bar is here.

Check out the rest of Frye's website in that case- they have loads of lovely designs :) hope you find what you are after!

MissBetseyTrotwood · 22/08/2012 22:31

Love those Frye ones.
