They're not to my taste.
I don't like the huge sole. Looks like block of wood to my eyes.
The actual boot minus the sole is nice but I also don't like the colour.

ThatsWhatI · 22/10/2021 08:13

They somehow miss the mark for me

RipMeKnickersOffYaRandyOldGoat · 22/10/2021 08:14

The colour is horrible, like unidentifiable sludge.

OnTheNatureOfDaylight · 22/10/2021 08:14

They are ok with the right outfit I suppose.
Not my taste or colour.

ikeepseeingit · 22/10/2021 08:14

Love them Grin

Mumteedum · 22/10/2021 08:15

I like em but what do I knowGrin

RepentBirthingPersonFucker · 22/10/2021 08:16

Love them but I do like a chunky boot

TrampolineForMrKite · 22/10/2021 08:17

My grandad had something similar that he kept in the garage for gardening Grin

Seriously- not good. Get some DMs instead.

Savoretti · 22/10/2021 08:17

Awful
How about DMs?

Soggychip · 22/10/2021 08:17

I love the style. My screen tends to distort colour . Are they brown?

stillonthattightrope · 22/10/2021 08:18

I really dislike boots with laces and a zip. Just decide what you are!

The colour is a bit sludgy as another poster pointed out and I also don't like the top of the foot bit.

I think you could find better.

Soggychip · 22/10/2021 08:21

I do agree that DMs do better versions of this style though if you like them and can afford them. ASOS also has similar styles that are more affordable.

Hoolihan · 22/10/2021 08:22

I wouldn't wear them myself but I do like them, kind of cool.

Bagelsandbrie · 22/10/2021 08:23

They’re very fashionable, if that matters to you. I’m not very fond of the colour.

InkyPinkyParlezVous · 22/10/2021 08:32

I have DM's. Fancied something different. I like the colour, but haven't seen it irl.

They look like some odd attempt to copy DMs by somewhere like M&S. They just seem to miss the mark a bit.

FreeBritnee · 22/10/2021 14:18

Nope

bigbeautwoman · 22/10/2021 14:21

A big thumbs up from me! Makes a change from black. Go on treat yourself

M0rT · 22/10/2021 14:22

I don't like the colour and I would automatically discount the shape as it looks like you need narrow feet and slim calves for them.
If you think they would suit you and like the colour go for it.

IAmTheLovechildOfYvesAndIsabel · 22/10/2021 14:52

In principle I love them, a chunky brown boot (with easy access zip as well as laces) floral maxi dress is my idea of easy Autumn style - you can switch tights to leggings when it gets colder, add a thin jumper/turtle neck under the dress and a long chunky cardi over the dress!😻
The only thing I am not sure about is the ridge around the shoe part of the boot and the narrowness. But that's because I have wide feet and would go for a more rounded shape.
They may well be the sort of boots that will look better the more worn in/out (?🤔) they become.
As always, if you love 'em then get/keep them!

Ozberry · 22/10/2021 14:55

I feel like they are having an identity crisis and can’t decide if they are brogues or Docs

mummy182822828 · 22/10/2021 14:58

Not really my taste but they would look better in black

secretbookcase · 22/10/2021 15:01

I quite like them. I generally like brown flat lace up boots. But not sure about the ridge around the front of the upper, and don;t love the colour. But I'd give them a positive glance if someone walked past in the street wearing them.

RainbowZebraWarrior · 22/10/2021 15:01

Love them! Also love the dress / skirt!

quirkychick · 22/10/2021 15:04

I agree with secretbookcase. I love a chunky boot but the ridge and colour would mean I wouldn't choose them for myself.
