I would love to know people's honest thoughts about these boots

I think they'd make your feet look really long

Voteforpedr0 · 17/10/2016 21:44

Maid marion. Don't do it.

BikeRunSki · 17/10/2016 21:47

I love them.

DavetheCat2001 · 17/10/2016 21:47

not keen

JohnCheese · 17/10/2016 21:55

I'm with the naysayers. It's a no from me.

AllPizzasGreatAndSmall · 17/10/2016 22:54

it was me who said studenty, the fashion faddy who dress like mini-wags or young executives wouldn't wear them, the cool ones would. ;)

El Naturalista cool? Really?

Lilacpink40 · 17/10/2016 22:58

I think long and slim are more flattering. Or slight even 'ruching' rather than large creases from new. I like the colour.

wiltingfast · 17/10/2016 23:13

Hmm I like them but not sure on the colour (prefer the blue) and the length might also be awkward.

Have you looked at fly London and camper ? They do similar styles.

EnidButton · 18/10/2016 01:48

I really, really dislike them. They're the ugliest boots I've ever seen on here. Definitely agree with Tony Robinson's Maid Marian and the About a Boy Mum.

Imo obviously. We're all different.

Supertrooperloopthelooper · 18/10/2016 01:50

Agree with Enid. Repulsive. Sorry.

PoppyPicklesPenguin · 18/10/2016 02:24

I just looked at the other colours and they are even more horrible in the red colour.

They may however look far better on actual feet, depending on the size of your feet. I'm a size 7 and I would definetly look like the Tony Robinson maid Marion character (id forgotten about that, it was epic) but if you had smaller feet then maybe they would look ok, just not in that vile red colour.

bottleofredplease · 18/10/2016 06:55

Haha. Love all the comments! I imagine the people who hate them have a different style to me anyway. I have also looked at camper and fly London. Do you think these are any better?

Yeah prefer the second one you linked to really.

The fly website is terrible. I was in fly last week and they seemed to have a better selection. If you can, you should go to a shop.

wiltingfast · 18/10/2016 08:18

Did you see this style ?

ExceptInExtremis · 18/10/2016 08:26

Not my cup of tea (as many have said before, too Hobbity, too much like a costume from Star Wars when the action takes place on a rustic, primitive planet) but they look super comfortable and I envy people who can get away with comfort Smile
Also, knife to my throats I had to wear them, I would try going with black I skinny jeans and a sexy slash neck top to avoid it being too Ewok. Oh, yes, never, ever wear with a fur gilet or you might be mistaken for an Ewok.

ageingrunner · 18/10/2016 09:57

The camper ones also seem to be designed specifically to make the wearer's feet look longer Confused

wiltingfast · 18/10/2016 10:23

They honestly don't make your feet look longer or make you look like an ewok. Grin Swear to god.

That last particular style I've had myself, and they were funky (yes they were!) but didn't last as well as I thought they would for the price. But I did wear them to death. Grin Had them in navy.

ageingrunner · 18/10/2016 10:42

I know they would make my feet look longer and they're already long enough tbh! What shoe size are you wilting?

wiltingfast · 18/10/2016 12:59

Ah only 5. V average in fairness!

wiltingfast · 18/10/2016 13:00

They are v neat on compared to most boots. You'd have to try them to see if they worked for you I guess.

ageingrunner · 18/10/2016 13:16

I'm an 8 and I can tell they wouldn't work for me Grin

BusterGonad · 18/10/2016 13:19

I do not like any if them, I do feel physically repulsed by all of them....we obviously have VERY different taste OP! Lol x

Flingmoo · 18/10/2016 13:21

I think they'd be good for autumn walks in the woods, with skinny jeans and a cosy jumper Smile

BusterGonad · 18/10/2016 13:23

I've no doubt they are warm and cosy though!

bottleofredplease · 18/10/2016 13:30

Bustergonad. That made me laugh! What would you go for in a short boot ? I would love to have a good vom!
