Are these boots ugly?

These

I can't decide. I'd probably be wearing them with chord or denim skirt and chunky knit tights.

And I'd be buying them in the dark brown colour.

Quite ugly and clumpy. Think it's the heel.

MoreGilmoreGirls · 09/01/2016 19:58

Hmmm I am undecided too. Not something I would wear but not ugly.

SoWhite · 09/01/2016 19:59

Yes they are.

The look like the final touch on a pirate costume.

RemusLupinsBiggestGroupie · 09/01/2016 19:59

Depends what for - perfect for clomping around the park in the rain, but not so much for work/pub.

73dexter · 09/01/2016 19:59

They are ok but I prefer them in black to the dark brown.

ScarlettDarling · 09/01/2016 20:00

I'm not mad on them but I do like them...quite piratey!

MissOnomer · 09/01/2016 20:00

I like them Blush

Madbengalmum · 09/01/2016 20:00

Fugly sorry

ScarlettDarling · 09/01/2016 20:01

Ha...x post sowhite

sooperdooper · 09/01/2016 20:01

I like them, for just day to day wear :)

ijustwannadance · 09/01/2016 20:02

I like them too.

PreAdvent13610 · 09/01/2016 20:04

I like them, and sensible for our weather.

Branleuse · 09/01/2016 20:07

i think theyre nice winter boots

DickDewy · 09/01/2016 20:09

They look quite nice for dog walking type stuff. I wouldn't wear them otherwise.

snowypenguin · 09/01/2016 20:11

I like them.

TheMasterMurderedMargarita · 09/01/2016 20:15

I like them.
They look practical, comfy and I think would work well with the outfit you describe or over leggings/ long top combo.

almondfinger · 09/01/2016 20:26

I like them alot! For every day wear. You cant beat Merril for comfort if you do a lot of walking. I think they'd be fab with skinny jeans too.

revealall · 09/01/2016 20:28

Boring and mumsy. Nice idea but don't look one thing or another.

TondelayaDellaVentamiglia · 09/01/2016 20:35

they are ugly, but that's no need to condemn them.

I think "oooh they look so comfy" is the worst thing to be said about a shoe.

MajesticSeaFlapFlap · 09/01/2016 20:37

I really like them but just showed them to Dp who said 'arghhh matey I not be buying you pirate boots me hearty'

WickedWax · 09/01/2016 20:46

Yes they are quite pirate-y now that you've pointed it out Grin and yet strangely it still hasn't put me off them.

Still undecided, I think I'm going to buy them and try them on and then decide. They're not for wearing out anywhere nice. I've got skinny calves so suspect my legs may look like a twig in a bucket in them anyway.

I really like them!! If only it wasn't January and I wasn't skint Angry
I like the dark brown

jn367502 · 09/01/2016 21:07

Yes ugly and dated and expensive.

Oxfordblue · 09/01/2016 21:20

I ordered these earlier in the season & then sent them back because they were ugly & also not waterproof.

Was after them for dog walking.
