New boots

September 15, 2011

Last Spring I bought a few boots on sale, which I tend to look for boot deals from early Spring to Summer.  I love me some boots, but don’t want to spend a fortune.

I acquired these new boots from 6pm.com:

The Type Z boots are SUPER high.  They are also plasticy and have no traction.  Still…I kept them since they are unique.  I love unique.  I bought new shoe laces (the laces are plastic, so… much plastic sounds emit from the boots as you walk) and put a traction sticky thing to the bottoms.  Plus some inserts.  So yeah…$60 is turning into more like $70 – $75.

The Lassen boots are great, and really comfy.  Nice soft all leather boots, BUT the reviews said they ran small.  They don’t on me.  They are almost too big, so I’ll just wear thick socks with them.  They were 50% off, so that was a pretty good deal for all leather boots.  I wanted a pair of walking around boots for winter and this definitely fit the bill.

I wear boots ALL winter long.  It is cold here and I want my footsies to have plenty of cover.  Each year I buy at least one new pair of black boots.  This year I got two, so my second pair were these Vivona by The Cool People.  I got them for $120, I think.  Regular price was $250.  Yes, I love me some sales… 

Oh, boots…how I love thee…
