What do you think of these biker boots? They are from M&S by the way.

Frye boots are exquisite. They are a splurge for sure, but they last forever. I have a pair that I bought back in 2005 and they still look perfect.

fantasmasgoria1 · 16/08/2019 16:39

I don't like them personally. Brown is an awful colour for boots. They do look plasticy and the shape doesn't seem right. To me biker boots are meant to be black. But this is only my opinion.

I have a leather pair from Bertie with multiple buckles that seem to get a lot of compliments. I just scoured eBay for them. I think I paid about £15, so bargains are out there if you hunt for them.

I really like those R&B boots and I’m assuming that you can actually wear them and stand upright 😂
I’m also in the market for some properly waterproof biker boots but in grey!

kidsdoingmyheadin · 16/08/2019 17:13

I hope so MelanieFrontage 😄

OP, I have those exact boots from last year and I love them. The shininess wore off after a few wears and the leather soften up beautifully (I helped it along a little by putting a sheet over them and then stomping all over them in my DMs). I considered getting the black ones as well but they sold out very fast.

ladyandthechocolate · 16/08/2019 22:39

@Talisin that’s good to hear- I was hoping they would be softer and less shiny. Good plan about bashing them up a bit. I’ve often thought it’s what new boots need but I can’t bring myself to do it!

superdry And r&b ones are hideous

matahairyy · 17/08/2019 00:55

Office ones like wellies

matahairyy · 17/08/2019 00:56

And the hush ones look like a rocking chair hideous.

Bluntness100 · 17/08/2019 10:01

Absolutely love, love, love the super dry boots, they are a sort of grey black. Seriously comfy, Fleece is a bit big which surprised me, but that's fine.

So far the only ones I would wear from this thread are the Givenchy ones.

I like Grenson boots but mine have laces not buckles.

Alsohuman · 17/08/2019 10:09

They look nice @Bluntness100, I wouldn’t call them biker boots at all and they look much better on you than in the online illustration. I need a new pair this winter and they’re hard to find. Too many have a whiff of the cowboy boot about them. And the Office ones, which I really like, get crap reviews.

Belgravian · 17/08/2019 10:12

These are ok looking but the sole is awful, you’ll be slipping over if it rains or it’s icy.

Bluntness100 · 17/08/2019 10:17

Thanks Also, I suspect because they are quite chunky they are called biker boots, and that kind of style.

They are very comfy for anyone who has ordered them and the fleece goes all the way down over the sole.

Luckingfovely · 17/08/2019 10:22

They are almost nice - good shape - but the stitching and the hardware make them look really cheap, much cheaper than M&S in fact. I'm sure there are better out there.

This is a perfect example of why M&S struggle so much - nearly there, but just not quite right.!

Alsohuman · 17/08/2019 10:23

To be fair, they’re righter than most!

Luckingfovely · 17/08/2019 10:24

Same as someone above, I bought the Superdry ones in black last year, and they are the most comfortable thing I've ever worn. Can't wait for autumn to start wearing them again!!

@Alsohuman really? Haha. Guess that's a matter of opinion Grin

Alsohuman · 17/08/2019 10:48

Of course. That’s what S&B’s about, isn’t it?

BarrenFieldofFucks · 17/08/2019 10:56

I have these superset ones, via eBay. Flipping love them.

I have the M&S ones from last year. They’ve worn in well and I find them comfy.

jackstini · 25/08/2019 08:21

Love the Superdry ones - ordered in black

Not keen on the shiny brown ones OP they look a bit cheap for what they are

Have had these from Next before in the black and grey. The black is a good matte distressed look if you don't like shiny, they are really comfortable and I wear with jeans and dresses

Only downside is the soles wear out too quickly - but I did wear them A LOT!
