Feminine black flat Chelsea boots

I am after leather Chelsea boots in black, no heel. I looked at some DM ones, but think they might be too chunky, but I like the flat sole. I want something that will last a few years. Suggestions would be great thanks

I bought Selected Femme ones last year. I’ve worn them so much. Really comfortable.

DM have a nice Chelsea called 'flora', I've been looking at it as an option. I'd ordered their patent Chelsea but they are a bit clunky - I have big feet though.

The selected ones are £120?

I do like the Flora DM just don't want to look to chunky. Hmmm dilemma.

Not keen on the metal detail on the Teds. Otherwise I like the side.

Yes the Selected Femme ones were £120 (dearest Chelsea boots I’ve ever had) but were so worth it in terms of comfort. Is there not a discount floating about somewhere?

What’s your badger? I bought some from Toast a few years ago and they have them back this year. They should technically last for decades as they can be resoled by Cheaney and they look really lovely on. I got mine in the sale after Christmas so paid approx £150 but it depends how quickly you want them?

I’ve just received these ones from La Redoute, which feel to me near fitting and about the most feminine Chelsea boot I’ve tried on. Leather lined padding underfoot: www.laredoute.co.uk/ppdp/prod-350024807.aspx

@ShivD, they're nice. Do your feet slop around in them? I struggle with chelsea boots normally.
The DM Flora ones are nice and don't look particularly chunky compared with other DM chelsea boots.

MikeUniformMike · 28/11/2019 21:11

@ShivD, badger has made me laugh.

HappyHarlot · 28/11/2019 21:38

I have Dr Martens Flora and they are not at all chunky. I LOVE mine!

MikeUniformMike · 28/11/2019 21:38

Only one review for the Toast ones. I'd need to try them on.

Clark’s Orinoco are lovely boots, I’ve had three pairs now. Really comfy and last ages and they aren’t that expensive either.

🦡 ha brilliant. Healthy badger.

@MikeUniformMike they don’t flop around and are quite slime on the ankle (assuming this years are the same as a couple of years ago). They do come up quite big though, I’m always a 6 but have these in a 5.5. They’re nice and slim at the ankle too.

MikeUniformMike · 29/11/2019 20:43

I want badger boots now.

Might attack my DM Floras with tippex
