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

Maggie, do you mind me asking, how do you find Fly boots size? I'm between two sizes and don't know whether to go up or down. Too lazy to go into a shop to try them on.....

Amazon have some great reductions on Fly boots.... Great pair of chunky Chelsea's down from 85 to 55 that are very tempting!

raver I have that problem with Fly, too. Even the supposedly "wide" ones won't go near me. I try and stick to ones that lace up rather than zip up.

I have a pair similar to the op's but by Rocket Dog.

I'm not sure what mumsy/trendy is?

I love fly boots and those are gorgeous.

I like the fact that they are a bit different from the very mumsie / trendy ones that you get in most shops.

The green is nice too shame I've just done a Marie Kondo and made a massive point of reducing the amount of stuff in my wardrobe

I love them..I had always wanted a pair of Fly but the ones I tried on were too tight (Mes, I think), so I assumed they were for the skinny of foot. My feet aren't wide but I have high arches which make some boots feel narrow.

I tried a style on last year and they fit perfectly...I got them in Red and love them but they dont like the wet at all

I love them. I struggle with boots as I've got big legs.

I think the fact that they're not black is good too.

I'm not keen personally. I think they're a bit dated!

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!

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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