First let me say the main criteria for me is always comfort but I thought these were a bit more interesting than what I usually wear. I'm thinking for casual wear with dresses and thick tights or with jeans . I'm 50 if that makes a difference and not at all a stylish person Grin

Fabulous you buy them and enjoy.

Roominmyhouse · 26/10/2020 18:42

Love them! I’d definitely get them.

Notverybright · 26/10/2020 18:44

I don’t like them, because I don’t like suede I think it’s useless in winter. But I wouldn’t dislike them if I saw someone else wearing them.

SpeedofaSloth · 26/10/2020 18:45

I like them.

jambeforeclottedcream · 26/10/2020 18:47

They're nice. Not really me but if someone was wearing them I'd be complimentary about them. Defo would think what are those monstrosities on her feet

Sexnotgender · 26/10/2020 18:48

Not my taste.

LizzieMacQueen · 26/10/2020 18:49

44 people viewing them right now. That'll be us then!

StartingGridGo · 26/10/2020 18:49

I like the colour and the fact they're suede, but there are too many buckles for my liking.

Lalalatte · 26/10/2020 19:15

OK but personally I don't love them. The barbour ones that came up below were nicer.

Bubbletrouble43 · 26/10/2020 19:19

I love them! I have some a similar style from clarks from a few years back in grey but yours are much nicer. I wish mine had fallen apart so I could justify buying them 🤣

Craftycorvid · 26/10/2020 19:27

Nice! If I spotted you out and about in these, first I’d rubberneck because I’m a shameless ogler of other people’s footwear, secondly I’d think ‘ooh blue biker boots! Different! Wonder where she got ‘em?’

RubyViolet · 26/10/2020 20:17

I have them from a few seasons ago in black leather, they are really well made and so comfy !

VampireVicki · 26/10/2020 20:19

I absolutely love them Grin

MrsSnitchnose · 26/10/2020 20:21

Love them. I have several pairs of biker boots myself (my favourite style)

Inastatus · 26/10/2020 20:23

They’re lovely!

cicatrix1 · 26/10/2020 20:45

They are lovely op...Enjoy .

emilybrontescorsett · 26/10/2020 20:48

They are not my cup of tea but I'm a great believer in comfort so you go for it.

RunningFromWaterGhoul · 26/10/2020 20:51

I have those (or a very, very similar pair) in teal from a few years ago. They’re great but are quite shallow so get uncomfortable after a while if you have high arches.

LimpLettice · 26/10/2020 21:16

Love them. I have a similar pair from JS and they are extremely comfortable too.

Wiredforsound · 26/10/2020 21:25

I love them! Might get a pair too.

foxtiger · 27/10/2020 09:36

Ooh, not only do I like them, I'm now to work out whether I could possibly scrape together the money to get some. I've recently started wearing more blue for the first time since I left school, and blue boots would be really useful, especially in a totally "non-uniformy" style like this.

Bluesheep8 · 27/10/2020 09:38

Love them op!

Perro · 27/10/2020 09:40

I’d like them if they weren’t suede. I find suede a liability in winter, especially when the roads are gritted and the salt makes tidelines on it.
