...are excellent. Mine came today, and for a 300 quid saving, they’re so nice.

Comfy too.

nice Grenson copies

Oh I like them. Any one seen any dupes for the Grenson Ella boots?

TileFloors · 25/09/2019 19:42

I’ve got these and love them. Hardly had them off my feet since I bought them

Zinnia · 25/09/2019 19:52

I have these too! The are indeed fab (come up quite big as mine are an 8 even though technically my feet are size 9).

TantricTwist · 25/09/2019 19:55

That's good to know. I did look at buying a pair.

Are they comfortable ie could you walk for miles in them and are they completely waterproof?

Thisismyusernamefornow · 25/09/2019 20:02

I like the boot but are they identical? They look very shiny. Do you have any of your own photos please

AmateurSwami · 25/09/2019 20:12

Oh my god I need them!

TileFloors · 25/09/2019 20:18

They’re not very very shiny, ie not patent or anything like that. They are good thick leather and like all new shoes that can look quite shiny.

I can wear them to walk miles in. There was very little wearing in needed, they did rub slightly across the top of my foot where they bend but only briefly and soon softened. The soles are thick and comfy. I’m sure they’re waterproof; I haven’t tested them in very heavy rain yet but can’t see why they wouldn’t be as they’re thick leather with thick soles and there are no gaps for water to get in.

I think they’re pretty well true to size. I’m a 6 almost everywhere but at M&S sometimes a 5.5, but in these I’m definitely a 6. I’d say they’re narrowish - I have quite narrow feet and ankles and they fit well, but on the other hand because they have the laces as well as side zip there’s lots of room to expand too.

TantricTwist · 25/09/2019 20:29

Thanks @TileFloors I might get them then.

Pinkarsedfly · 25/09/2019 20:55

I just walked the dogs in the rain in mine and my feet stayed dry. They have a lovely amount of bounce too.

Thisismyusernamefornow they are not Grenson Nanette copies, no where near. They are just hiking boot style boots which as a style of boot are in fashion right now.

troppibambini · 25/09/2019 21:07

Nope sorry nothing like nanettes.

Pinkarsedfly · 25/09/2019 21:36

Near enough for me Grin

Ehh?!

troppibambini · 25/09/2019 21:49

They are hiking boot style that are all over the high street but sorry nothing like the nanettes.

SilverChime · 25/09/2019 21:51

They’re not the same imo. The padding round the ankle of the M&S ones looks really clunky and dated.

Writersblock2 · 25/09/2019 22:10

Any good on slippery surfaces?

Ponks · 25/09/2019 22:22

I tried these but found them really uncomfortable. M&S do a similar pair with faux fur at the top which were much more comfortable- and crucially didn't have a side zip. Think the hiking style boots look really odd with a side zip!

ReggaetonLente · 25/09/2019 22:33

I bought the brown suede version. I like them!

ChardonnaysDistantCousin · 25/09/2019 22:39

If they are a copy then they are a poor one.

TwattingDog · 25/09/2019 22:45

I'm confused - these look basically the same as every pair of boots I wore in the Police!
For example:

Pinkarsedfly · 26/09/2019 04:57

Bloody hell. I liked my new boots Sad

‘Here are my new boots.’
‘Here are all the reasons they are shit’

Gotta love MN Grin

PatricksRum · 26/09/2019 05:41

Don't think they're too similar but I love those M&S ones!
I might buy a pair! The zip is so persuasive Grin
