I think I really like these - what do you girls think?  And if nay, please post some cute, black snow boots!

ha! those are my snowboots, so yes, but I'm biased


I have found them not to be the easiest boots to get on and off because of the button factor, but I think they are very cute and good for wet and slushy conditions (I bought them specifically with sledding in mind )

I thought you might have them!  I found them in an old post where Christine recommended them.  Do they fit you TTS?  How tall is the shaft?

they run a little small. since I was planning on wearing them more for outdoor activities, I figured I could live with it (typically, I like to have some extra room with snow boots for layering socks or wearing thick socks.) my toe hits more than I would like it to, but I have freaky feet where my big toe is the longest toe (if your toes are more straight across, they might be fine) -- it wouldn't hurt to go a half size up if you are concerned.


measuring from the top of the heel to the top of the shaft, it's approx. 16". the fur part can be folded up, extending the shaft to 17" or so. there is a zipper closure in the front center of the boot that is concealed by the placket that buttons over it.


HTH


ETA: they make your feet look reeeeeealy leeeetle

Fabulous - thanks girls!


Anyone want to help me find them for the cheapest price?  Maybe w/a coupon code.  I need a size 8.  TIA!

Unfortunately, that only applies to shoes bought through Amazon direct, and of course, they don't have them.

I did see them in 8.5 for something like $58 when I was in there earlier - so even if you don't have a code, there may be a deal there...

Really cute!  You can find them on amazon (seller shoes.com - not sure how that works) and get them for $20 off, so the total is $69.  I may get them myself.

D - unfortunately, I saw the 8.5, but those would be way too big for me.  I'm normally a 7.5 and was sizing up to an 8 per your recommendation.  I can't find an 8 anywhere that's not the full price.


jrhampt - the $20 off on Amazon only applies to shoes bought through Amazon direct.
