Do you wear these/like these?

Since its been raining ALL WEEK (Chat Icon) you cannot help but notice here in NYC a LOT of ladies wearing these boots ... I knew they wre sort of coming back into style.. but personally I just cannot dig it

These are from Ann Taylor Loft, come in other colors

or such as these... these are from Burberry.. also come in green, orange, yellow....) $130.00 Chat Icon

So truthfully, do you like them? Anyone have them? If so, are they comfy?

I dunno... I'm sure they are great for this weather but I just can't imagine myself wearing theseChat Icon Reminds me too much of 1st grade wearing my matching raincoat, boots and umbrella Chat Icon

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I've seen them all over this week. I think they are really adorable if worn correctly and the pattern is nice, but I don't think I can quite pull off that look. I'm 5'0" and think I would like like I ws in kindergarden!

I have a pair with strips on them. I got them from Mandees for 16.00. I love them. I love them in the snow as well. It is a must have.

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I must be so out of the fashion loop ... truly, I am so out of style. I saw so many ladies with these this week, I was like WHEN did THESE get popular again??

I know they are practical but I'm so not able to pull it off.. besides I'm not a bright color wearing type of person

Hmm that's an idea... nice and cheap and when they go out of style, I can chuck them..

But I could probably only pull off a solid color.. maybe I'll check it out! Thanks!

IMO they aren't so much an in style thing...
they are cute though...
I have seen very few people wearing them. And i bet unless it rains like this more often, i won't be seeing them again

I remember being a kid with those.

I don't own a pair, but I think they could be cute and functional too!

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I was shocked how much wear I got out of them last year. They held up very well. I even wore them sledding. And brought them along on 2 ski weekends, so easy to just slip them on and off.

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I had them as a kid and I used to wear them to the horse farm in the winter or on muddy days.

You may see them around a lot because it seems that a lot of the retro-prep look is in. The equestrian look also seems to be in. I guess I should start wearing my riding clothes to more than just the barnChat Icon

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I like them and would definitely wear them - the solid colors though!

If i come across a nice pair at a reasonable price - i would buy - if not - i wouldn't even bother.

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

You could be right about the style thing Red. I just see them featured in more stores this year than every before.. I have NEVER seen them so much as I have this fall , of course this weather makes you notice them.. I have a pretty long walk to/from work so I check people out for style tips sometimes (Chat Icon)m since I never go shopping lately! These boots were everwhere this season

Oh I just saw Juliet's post.. yes that is true, I think that the boot look is more in style with the way the fall fashion is going this year.. I am NOT into the preppy/equestrian look , hence I will prob. never get the whole look down pat Chat Icon

I think what happens is that in the burbs or boroughs or anywhere you drive to work, you sometimes dont see people walking around as much so you dont noticed their footwear QUITE as much..I hardly ever see anyone by my house with these , but in the city everyone clones the other person , and since everyone has got to walk somewhere, I suppose the boots make sense

I was not crazy about the patterns. but when it comes to dry comfortable feet, I did not care. The price helped too.

very true!

If i walked in the city on a daily basis...in rain and snow. I think i would get a cute pair!

Me personally i like the print. The solids aren't as nice to me

Re: Do you wear these/like these?

I am dying to get a pair...especially after this week of rain and they would be perfect slushing around after snow storms.

They are totally not my style and I know I will look ridiculous but then soaking wet shoes/socks/pants are not my style either Chat Icon
