Which boots?

Do I want sock trainer boots (dunno proper name!) like these (no budget for the originals) Barbour ones.

Or do I want these kin trainer boots? I cannot decide!

(NB - the reality is I don't actually need either - but I'd like a pair of casual non work boots to wear with jeans. I don't like trainers and socks and my ankles are chilly...)

Both pretty ugly

but second link infinitely better than first

Agree with pp. I hate this look. I always wonder if your foot flaps about inside the sock bit.

White stuff have some nice high tops.

I don't like either of them at all

I think you have to have a certain 'look' to carry these off, but they do look mega comfy Grin second link for men

I have high tops and hiker boots. I need a winter substitute for trainers really I suppose. Maybe these aren't it 😂

I'm no help either as I love them both and can always find an excuse to buy new shoes so probably would get them both.

chalkyc2 · 04/11/2022 08:35

Oh yes I have a black pair of them but consider them snow boots!

Good god no. These are cold weather boots. I have other criteria for a snow boot 😂😂😂😂which means I get to buy another pair.

chalkyc2 · 04/11/2022 08:43

Haha! Anything with Sherpa linings = snow!!

It may be that I have too many pairs of boots already....

I've also been thinking about some vivobarefoot Chelsea boots. My bank balance doesn't really need them though...!!
