I don’t like them. Especially at that price.

Coulditbeperimenopause · 24/09/2024 11:55

They look like if Primark did Timberlands.

I like chunky boots.

But not those.

They are like a mash up between proper hiking / work / outdoor boots trying to pretend they are fashionable, and fashion boots that are too ‘not anything’ to really work.

They look like hiking boots to me, not a look I'd personally go for.

Powerandchaos · 24/09/2024 12:46

was on the fence . How about these ones from f & f ? Need a boot asap thank you all

The F&F are much nicer (although I did think that stood for Florence & Fred until I opened the photo and wondered how your budget had varied so much!). I have a similar pair but they're DMs, and they're very useful boots.

IbizaToTheNorfolkBroads · 24/09/2024 13:21

I like the f&f. They are very similar to Bundstones, which I love and have worn for about 30 years.

Day99 · 24/09/2024 13:22

F&f ones are much nicer!

Gonnagetgoingreturnsagain · 24/09/2024 13:28

The F&F ones are much nicer and far more wearable.

artictern · 24/09/2024 13:29

I guess I’m in the minority as I prefer the first ones as they are more interesting! Yes they look a bit like work boots but isn’t that the idea? The gold bits make it obvious they’re not actually work boots.

NashvilleQueen · 24/09/2024 14:18

I don't really like either. The first look as a PP says like Primark Timberlands. The second are fine because they're totally generic in style and available everywhere for a much lower cost. I've had some from office for getting on for 4 years and they are still in perfect nick.

Completelyjo · 24/09/2024 14:19

Not a fan, but I hate these chunky boots in general.

PenelopePitStrop · 24/09/2024 14:57

F&F ones are v good!

Mydogisaknob · 24/09/2024 15:01

Doctor martens? They're a classic.

Justonedayatatime11 · 24/09/2024 15:10

The Boudicas will last you forever and are so comfy. Live in mine.
The HC are not nice... you could try HC Camden's which look much nicer IMO

Toiletrollwaspreciousincovidtimes · 24/09/2024 15:12

They look like my ds's army regulation ones.. Join up and get them for free op!!

Powerandchaos · 24/09/2024 15:58

I’m definitely considering buying the f&f now , does anyone know of any discount codes if possible thank you
