Keep or Sell???

Elle · Hermes

First off, *hi*! Haven't seen you around these parts much, nice to have you back .

I don't think there is anything out-and-out wrong with those boots, but I think there are definitely cuter styles out there. I say sell these and use the profits to buy a pair you really love instead of holding onto these.

I agree. But they seem to fit your calves pretty well, so if you have a hard time finding boots that fit, I'd keep them.

Lilykind · Hermes

I say sell. There are cuter boots, plus I also threw out a pair of Nine West boots that had that square toe.

gypsyfreak · Coach

I would also sell too. Like everyone else says, there are probably cuter style out there that you would love better.

rocky · Coach

I say keep. You probably won't be able to get close what you paid on ebay. Plus they look good on you. Who cares if they are square toe, in a few seasons everything will probably be square toe and you would have wished you had kept them. It happens to me all the time.

I agree with Rocky, you won't get anywhere near what you paid for them on ebay. I think those boots look good on you and you'll probably wish you had them if you decide to sell them. Do you have any other knee length black boots? Maybe you could sell them if you already have a pair that functions pretty much the same way in your outfits.

Metric · Gucci

I really like them, I think they look great on you. I vote keep.

Chic · Marc Jacobs

Sell, I had the same pair in tan and gave them away last year.

crazyshopper · Nine West

I say definitely keep! I'm a huge ebayer, and shoes never sell well on Ebay unless they're brand new and a huge brand (like manolo). If they're comfortable and fit well, you'll wear them later on, even if you're not loving them right now. Case in point: I have a pair of knee high boots I almost sold two years ago because they were a little roomy around the calves. Now that the whole "boots over the jeans" thing is in, I love them and they fit perfectly over my pants!

Karina · Chanel

i say sell. they're too old school for me.

blink · Coach

They are nice boots and I don't think they are out of style since they are kind of pointy and not boxy, but since you are tired of the square toe style, I think that you could make a nice sell on ebay with them...there's still plenty of ebayers who don't think square toes are out, so sell before they figure it out.

Nine West is such a recognizable brand, it sells pretty well on ebay, I recently sold a pair of square toe loafers. Good luck!

NCshopper · Hermes

I voted to keep them. I think they look good under pants and you can wear them that way until square toes come back in, which I'm sure they inevitably will.

Hedvig · Coach

I don't really care if square toes are in or out but if you don't wear them at all, then they're probably not worth keeping to you. I do think they look nice on you.
