Boot advice.

Post by Balcony Brawler »

What do you all think of these boots? The straps need to be removed but other then that I think they're a good pair of boots for a good price.

These are a no go... the heel of the boot is too high. These are designed for riding a motorcycle and hooking the heel on the supports. The CRL states a conservative heel (1" or less)...

Here is one more pair that i am looking at. I know the CRL says pointed toe for suede boots and i'm not sure if these are pointed enough. What say you?

Those look like what a lot of us have actually. Pointed toe can be a conservative point, they don't have to be elf shoes. Good find.
