RE: frye dorado slouch boots...thoughts?

honey · Gucci

i think they could work. the thing is the slouch is built in. i probably won't do a good job of explaining it, but they're stitched in a way that means they'll maintain a certain level of slouchiness regardless of if they are worn up or down. if they were straight slouchy boots, i'd probably pass, since they'll fall down, but i think they'll maintain the slouchy shape regardless.

also they're a pull on style, so it might be easier to take them in than a pair of boots with a zipper.

I have chicken legs to and they appear that they would stay up........long live the baseball legs!

I find that with thinner legs they stay better if you flip the top flap up and wear them tall (they'll still slouch). I find that the flap make them too havy and they kind of fall all the way down my legs when I wear them the regular way (unless I tuck my jeans into them, in which case they stay fine). HTH!
