I just bought some yummy cheap boots from an embarassing shop

Here They are gorgeous and very, very comfy. For £35!!!!!

But the shop is so grim and orthotic. What am I going to say when people ask me about them?

Oh I think they're REALLY nice! Never heard of the shop though.

When you said boots from an embarrassing shop I was imagining you got them from Kinky Fetish Wear r Us or something...

There are lots of lovely boots there! Nice one.

IamHelenaJustina · 04/10/2014 18:04

Grin Only kinky if you have a foot fetish. They do podiatry and stuff in there. Lots of very dull shoes but some nice ones and £35 - total bargain.

I'm going to wear them for work with dresses and skirts. I need to walk a lot so comfort is essential and I usually have flats. Bit excited about the heel.

I love them! There's a Shuropody in Chichester but I've never ventured in. I might have to take a look next time I'm there!

trikken · 04/10/2014 18:06

Sensible, not embarrassing. Love them.

IamHelenaJustina · 04/10/2014 18:08

I am heartened by the comments! Grin

Even dd1 quite liked them. Well she said 'not as mumsy as you usually buy' which I think was a compliment.

Look at those biker boots! Having them babies.

PureMorning · 04/10/2014 18:18

I just bought the biker boots!

kelper · 04/10/2014 18:23

God there are some gorgeous boots on there!!

TheSpottedZebra · 04/10/2014 18:28

Ooh, I quite like www.shuropody.com/bebe-black.html

Ledkr · 04/10/2014 18:31

Lush boots!! Thanks op.

LemonBreeland · 04/10/2014 18:31

There are some lovely boots and shoes on there.

TongueBiter · 04/10/2014 18:31

My local Shuropody is within House of Fraser ..... you could say they're from there?

Patilla · 04/10/2014 18:34

Do you mind me asking how wide the normal boots are?

IamHelenaJustina · 04/10/2014 19:00

Oh dear I like the look of the Anami ones too.......£25!

OP posts:
IamHelenaJustina · 04/10/2014 19:01

Widthwise the ones I bought today are standard width for the shop I think. They are fine on me and I have wide feet. I usually buy extra wide in Clarks.

beanandspud · 04/10/2014 19:02

Well, that's another £25 that Style and Beauty 'made' me spend! Grin

Have ordered the Anami in brown. Thank you OP.

Fairylea · 04/10/2014 19:03

We have one of these shops 5 minutes up the road at the garden centre ! Amazing quality shoes and boots :).

dexter73 · 04/10/2014 19:07

The anami are cheap because they are synthetic. They do look nice though.

PetiteRaleuse · 04/10/2014 19:12

Why embarassing?

SofaCanary · 04/10/2014 19:18

They're disappointingly stylish, I was preparing myself for something truly horrific! Grin

Milllie · 04/10/2014 19:19

I have just saved that website to my favourites. I always look for comfy shoes now im getting older ha ha.

DiaDuit · 04/10/2014 19:23

Oooh! Nice boots! Some lovely ones on there and not expensive! Thanks op.
