Tried these on today and quite liked them but didn't buy (perhaps because I ordered a black pair in another style a couple of days ago). What does anyone think?

I like them.
But my taste in boots has gone considerable awry lately

PollyPerky · 26/10/2016 17:04

Ooh this is a bit enabling Wink - glad they pass the MN test! Might grab them at the weekend.

Thank you!

Just the other day similar boots were lambasted as 'the mum boot'. A low, chunky heel was deemed too 'safe' and frumpy. So why is this not 'a mum boot'?

PollysPoppy · 27/10/2016 21:48

Ketsby - I have no idea why they're not 'mum boots' but surely we should buy boots we like and which we find comfortable? And yes, which are fashionable if we're that way inclined! Would these pass as a slightly trendier mum boot then, I wonder? Grin

I really don't get all this 'mum boots' bollox. If you like the boots wear them. Why does the opinion of a bunch of people on the Internet matter? Not having a go at you OP but there's been a lot of these threads lately .

PollysPoppy · 27/10/2016 22:53

Kinda with you on that Dfg! It wasn't supposed to be a Mum boots thread .... just somewhere to get views on whether they're okay or hideous! Anyway, am off boot shopping tomorrow so heaven knows what I'll end up with!

Too shiny got my taste . They look cheap and they aren't .

BusterGonad · 28/10/2016 08:41

I would say they are not 'mum boots' as they don't have a middle aged air about them. To me mum boots are just a bit meh.

BusterGonad · 28/10/2016 08:44

Keepinkeepinon lol at mum boot description.
