should I keep these boots?
Permalink Closed

So, these came in the mail yesterday:



 


I had wanted them in raspberry originally, but I found them on Amazon in teal and used those codes to get $40 off, and they were already less expensive than on zappos. 


They fit me fine, and they're nice and tall, but I can't shake the feeling that they're sort of a cross between cartoonish superhero boots and galoshes (probably because of the color). 


Also, they're not inconspicuous, and I'll have a hard time sneaking these into my wardrobe without the bf totally noticing and being all like, are those new?  Have been bad and bought 3 pairs of tall boots this fall already (2 brown and 1 black).


I know one or two other people have these - do you like them, and is this color in particular easy to fit into your wardrobe?  What do you wear them with?

I ordered these boots a few weeks ago and I really didn't like them. I thought that they were uncomfortable and didn't fit. I also thought that they looked a little silly on though I still love the detailing on them.

If they are comfy and you would actually wear them, I would return. I wouldnt' get the rasberry unless you know you would wear them.

I love them. and it's a hard call with raspberry.  I have found green or blue footwear to be much more versatile in my wardrobe. can I vote for both?

I dunno...I love the idea of raspberry boots! I see them with chocolate, charcoal, teal, and the obvious black. I think they could be more versatile maybe than the teal boots. But it will totally depend on your wardrobe colors.

Raspberry would work more easily into my closet...but the green are beautiful.

I like them, but they do look pretty damnuncomfortable!
