Zip up ankle boots

6 replies

As the A/W clothes are in the shops now can anyone help me find my holy grail of comfortable, practical, but stylish ankle boots with a zip?

I'm pregnant and have a toddler and one thing I learned from the first time around is how irritating and time consuming it is to have to do up laces when you can't bend down or with someone climbing on your back. I want a pair of black leather ankle boots, flat or small heel, that zip up, but that look at least vaguely stylish rather than clompy (unless it's a very fashionable clompy Grin). Happy to spend for the right boots, and ideally they would last more than one winter.

In the past I would have looked at Camper, for example, but all theirs are hideous at the moment. Are there any nice ones anyone has seen?? Thanks!

I've just ordered these. They arrive tomorrow.

I've been after the exact same as you and really struggled to find anything I like.

Ooh those are lovely! Like the shape at the ankle and the zip at the back. Ideally I'd find something with sturdy leather rather than suede though as I live by the sea and things can get a bit wet and muddy. I need something to wear when I'm not wearing wellies or city shoes for a trip to the big smoke :) Will have a look at other Hudson boots.

I really want to know this too. I can never find any that are flat/leather/zipped. I know Chelsea boots are in fashion but they have no fastenings and I can never get my feet in them.

I bought some from New Look last year. I see they are doing the same style this year but in different colours. [http://www.newlook.com/shop/shoe-gallery/view-all-boots/tan-suede-western-ankle-boots_531102918]]

They've arrived and I love them, perfect amount of structured and slouchy. Really easy to get on & off and very comfy.

They do have a black leather version on the Hudson website!
