Have found these half price on amazon reduced to £60 from £120. What do you think? Any fly fans out there?

Love them. Not my style but if they fit with your look they're gorgeous.

Clickclickclick · 01/09/2016 16:34

No, they're not nice. Send them to me instead Grin

I'm looking for somethign a bit 'bovver booty' (but not too much like DMs) to go with jersey dresses to mix up the look at bit . I'm lucky enough to work from home most days so can wear what I like. The only bit I'm not too sure about is the laces, will they annoy me?I'm not used to boots with laces.

Love 'em, I think they will really look good worn as you describe.

Can you tie your own shoelaces?

I'm sure they won't bother you after a while, you might appreciate the fact that you can tighten them up.

I lived in victorian-style granny boots when I was a student - several hooks to lace; they looked so good (IMHO) that it was worth it.

maggiethemagpie · 01/09/2016 16:48

I think I was taught how to tie my shoelaces when I was a child, it was a long time ago! Now, keeping them from becoming untied, that's a different matter.

I have ordered the boots to try, they fit well and although I originally ordered in petrol (teal) they have sent me green, which I now think I prefer. I do love boots - especially coloured ones. Makes me feel all autumny!

I love them! Which really surprises me as they aren't my style at all. Wish they were though - I'm just not cool enough

surferjet · 01/09/2016 16:50

Just the sort of thing I wear.

I ❤️ Them.

Buzzardbird · 01/09/2016 16:55

Fabulous, very jealous.

FurryLittleTwerp · 01/09/2016 18:35

I really like them Smile

OiWithThePoodlesAlready · 01/09/2016 18:37

I like them but I think they are an awkward length to carry off. Anything like that makes my legs look like sausages.

surferjet · 01/09/2016 18:59

Does anyone like these?

frikadela01 · 01/09/2016 19:27

Love them but I'm biased towards boots in general!

OiWithThePoodlesAlready · 01/09/2016 21:21

Oh surferjet no. They are not very nice at all.

surferjet · 01/09/2016 21:36

Hmm. Ok.
They're not my usual style but I saw them on someone with a long black tight skirt and they looked really good.

OiWithThePoodlesAlready · 01/09/2016 21:39

If you like them them go for it! You'd probably hate half (if not all) the stuff I wear Grin it's what makes life interesting isn't it.

surferjet · 01/09/2016 21:48

For sure Grin

maggiethemagpie · 01/09/2016 22:42

Not my thing surferjet but each to their own. Are they very pricey?

I love those Fly boots! In fact,I'm off to have a look on amazon now myself...

KikiAndSherona · 01/09/2016 22:45

Not keen on the green boots at all. I know I'm definitely in the minority here! They remind me of something you'd wear as part of a steampunk costume.

surferjet · 01/09/2016 22:49

£345 maggie.

SarahChez · 02/09/2016 07:04

I don't suppose you have a link to them? ;)

Sallystyle · 02/09/2016 07:06

I need these in my life OP.

maggiethemagpie · 02/09/2016 09:19

Well, I have decided the boots are a keeper! They have grown on me. Although I didn't order the green colour, I ordered teal, I actually quite like them now. Also they are really comfy and fit well straight away which is a sign I should keep them I think. Also they are RRP £125 and selling for well over £100 on amazon and ebay now, so I reckon I got a bargain!
