Chloe Riding Boots ... *update* -- should i get them?
Permalink Closed

I'm drooling over these right now and they're on sale for $514:



 


unfortunately, i wear a size 8 and the next closest size available is a size 9.  could i possible go up one whole size and just put in some shoe inserts and wear thicker socks???  they're such a good deal and perfect for fall .... thoughts?

Thick socks should do the trick. Especially with boots, most people size up a 1/2 size with boots anyways ...

Review them if you buy them!!

if they are european sizes, the 9 might be small anyway- i've seen 39s described as a 9, and thats more of an 8.5 imo.

do we like them, and are they a good investment?  i've been searching for a pair of riding boots for a long time, and i DO love them, but at $514, it's just not an easy purchase to make.  yes or no?

i love them and definitely think they are a good investment. i have a pair of chloe boots from last season, i think the style was called prince. anyway they are seriously gorgeous and the quality is outstanding.


i also agree with lynnie, european sizing can be a bit tricky. i definitely think going up one size from the standard conversions most people use.

Those are the most gorgeous in this style that I have seen, and that is a fantastic deal. Get them!
