Really flat boots - any suggestions?

I've always struggled with finding winter boots because I my shoes to be flat. Not 'flat' as in '0.5" heel' but actually flat (or as close as I can get it). I just find them more comfortable.

I picked up a nice pair of Diesel suede ankle boots last year in a charity shop which have been amazing but are now starting to look a little scruffy so the great hunt begins again! I'd love some nice looking ankle boots for everyday wear - Chelsea boots or similar maybe?

I'm eyeing up these www.drmartens.com/uk/p/womens-boots-game-on-leyton but not sure about lace ups. There are 'barefoot' style boots (like these www.vivobarefoot.com/uk/shop/sale#q=gender.Womens) but they're usually expensive and I'm not certain about the quality. Any suggestions at all would be very welcome. I can't be the only odd one here?!

Fly do some lovely very comfortable ones. They do need a waterproof spray though

I love Blowfish boots. Shop around though as much cheaper not form Schuh etc.

Also Rocket Dog 🙂

I've had Fly in the past and have considered them - they are comfortable but usualy have a raised heel. Camper Peu look nice. And Blowfish, didn't think of them! Not keen on Rocket Dog. Thanks for the suggestions!

I would have said vivo barefoot. I think they are meant to be good quality and also do regular discounts. They have their own devotees, although I personally didn't get on with the ones I got as the style and size pinched my toes.

Depending on your size, children's shoes are often flatter than adults. E.g. check out places like Boden, and boys and girls Next to see if there is anything.

I've also got Clarks Taylor Shine Chelsea's, which aren't too high.

I've got Vivobarefoot shoes and the kids have had their school shoes. Barefoot shoes are often made from such soft leather that they don't last long but Vivobarefoot shoes are really hard wearing.

Thanks for that CountFosco - I've looked at VivoBarefoot a few times and it's good to know that they do last.
