Got these flat boots from Dune. It might be warm (for now) and not really boots weather, but who cares!

Given your location in the pics, shouldn't you be wearing platform boots? :fine:

That is entirely the correct attitude about boot weather.  Nice boots with a cool back zipper.

I just received this pair of Torrid "Lulu" boots in a size 12.  They have a 3 1/2" block heel, single sole, and are very wide, so they are quite comfortable.  The boots had a wide shaft but I ran a seam down each shaft that reduced the diameter by 4" at the top and 1" at the bottom.  There is also an elastic panel that runs the length of the shaft so there is some give if I wear them over jeans.  The material is a faux leather but then I only paid $14 for them.  They're just gong to be a fun pair to wear just running around.

I just received my first purchase from China via Aliexpress.  The boots are a stretch fabric that looks like suede.  The boots have a pointed toe so I ordered a size 14 (largest available) and the boots are are marked size 45.  They fit like a size 12 so my recommendation is to order at least 2 sizes up.  The boots came with a 4 1/4" heel and are very comfortable to wear and to walk in.  The cost was about $39 and that included shipping, which took about a week.

The boots arrived in a padded bag:

The boots arrived in great condition, note the heel protector:

Once the material stretched to accommodate my foot (second time I put them on) they fit very comfortably and looked great.

By the way I posted this picture in the feedback for the vendor.

Here is the URL for the boots: http://www.aliexpress.com/item/winter-women-knee-high-thigh-high-boots-botas-femininas-2015-fashion-woman-over-the-knee-boots/32414938035.html


I went out tonight to a wine bar/restaurant to hear a friend of mine play guitar.  He is one of those players that plays such a handful of chords that you are convinced that what he is doing is impossible, and then he does it in a different key.  Anyway, I wore my new boots with denim leggings and a satin top  and a belt.

I had a great time and no one said a word about my boots.  I will admit though that after 5 hours in pointy toe heels I put on a pair of flats when I got home.

I just love how leg huggingly slim these boots are.

The postman arrived yesterday with a pair of grey real leather suede slouchy boots called "SLPIRSCILLA", I can't make out the brand name but they sure look like Steve Madden. They are a size 12 with a rounded toe with a 1/4" heel.  They are very comfortable.

I wore them last night over jeans to a gig where I was playing to a room full of folks, most of whom had seen me wearing boots before (I normally wear boots when I'm playing).  After the show one lady, who had seen me that morning at a different gig wearing a different pair of boots, commented that I was just like her daughter having so many pair of boots.  Recently she has probably seen me wearing 8 different pair of boots. I told her that what she has seen hadn't even scratched the surface.

I considered getting a pair of denim boots some time, but just did not justify the dollars. They have a beautiful appearance. Are they comfortable? Are the boots remain on your legs? Are they just for kicking the house they are for public viewing?

Google French: Je considérais obtenir une paire de bottes en denim un peu de temps, mais juste ne l'ai pas justifié les dollars. Ils ont une belle apparence. Sont-ils à l'aise? Sont les bottes restent sur vos jambes? Sont-ils simplement pour avoir tapé dans la maison ils sont pour le visionnement public?

comfortable: yes, for me and my feet :fine:remain on legs: yes, boots have inner lining, they keep warm. i plan to go out with in public, but under jean. i dont like boots over pants in public( or just at home)

I already went to do some shopping at the supermarket with black boots ( funny to see some turning regards, no remarks for the moment...), but i search something different. i see this pair in jeans, so i buy them.

Of any pair of boots that would work over jeans it's those boots.  Remember it is contrast that draws attention, so if you wore a similar shade of denim jeans, the boots would blend right in and I'll bet hardly anyone would notice.  Seems a shame to hide such a fine pair of boots.

Ok, so SkyScrapers UK had a pair in stock in my size, 5.5" thigh boots in black leather. Comfortable, but the heel is a challenge. :)

Wow those boots are HOT!!!! A nice 5.5 inch heel and I don't think they will be a challenge for too long as I am sure you will be wearing them a lot, I know I would be!!!!

Yes, I can walk in 6.5 inch heels!!!

Wow those are nice boots.  They do look quite steep with that 5.5" heel (steeper then mine with a 5.5" heel on a size 14) and it does take some getting used to, but it is worth the effort and besides you wont notice how high the heel is when your wearing them while on your motorcycle. :angel:

The postman just arrived with a pair of lower East Side (Payless) Tan microfiber suede boots in a size 12 (with a 1/2" heel and no platform :penitent:).  The top unfolds for an OTK look. I know they are not quite hhplace stuff but they are great looking and really comfortable.  Found them for $10.  I'm really getting to like my postman.

TBG,

I had similar ones from Aliexpress. They lasted 2 days. The heels reinforcement folded itself as I put them on on day 2 It is like carboard, inside the suede fabric. Then I have never been able to get it stiff again, and it resulted in a strange bump in the back, and the boot became very unconfortable.

I hope yours are better quality, and you manage to put them on carefully.

Yup, although after spotting that I could get a knee high pair with round toes I placed an order during their summer sale.
