The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Has anyone else seen the new styles? I can see those going down a treat. Top ones aren't yet on the site, only the pre-order email. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ubereglu Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I have seen these-got the e-mail from Look At my crazy shoes last week! I quite like them, but I have a gorgeous pair of boots already! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 They're not cheap at all, but if they're as comfy as Fitflops, then they woudl be a dream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Space Chick Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I hadn't seen the Gogh before, I have a normal pair of fit flops, and the slippers too, Claret what have you done My credit card is going to get a hammering now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reikiranf Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I wish you hadn't shown me that They look like more enclosed billows (last years winter version in sheepskin) that I got in March and they are fab, so comfy infact that I've ditched my Birkenstocks and got Fitflops instead Amanda Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
craftyhunnypie Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I think fitflops have taken over from crocs - which now seem to be dying out. Especially the traditional clog style cayman ones. I still wear mine though. Hubby wants some Ambler boots for winter. I like the boots at the top best. Wonder if they will be better than Uggs? I hate to see peoples feet going over in Uggs - like fallen arches, because there is no ankle support. They soon look tatty. Emma.x Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 I feel the same about Uggs, Emma. These do look to have more structure and support, don't they? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I've tried on fit flops but they are all too loose - that is around the top. If I go down a size then my heel is over the back. I must have a skinny foot! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 I have very small feet and my fitflops fit nicely, perhaps the longer sizes are wider? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Shame as I like the fitflops. Wouldn't be caught dead in the boots though - they look UGGLY or rather like the MBT boots - either way rather not me. I shall be looking for a pair of ridiculously high platform boots in the January sales! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Are those bottom ones shiny MOON BOOTS?! And what are fit flops? Are they flip flops which do a workout on your behalf? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dogmother Posted September 7, 2009 Author Share Posted September 7, 2009 Moon boots are way back in fashion now - loads of girls were wearing them at the last gig we went to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A chickychickychick-ENN!! Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 Oh good grief. I remember old-skool early 80s ones - their waterproof element came from having a polythene bag between the puffy outer bit and the (removable) sponge inner bit! How cheap?! And they WEREN'T even cheap! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ms Marple Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I have lived in my two pairs of Fitflops all summer and I am dreading the return of the kids to school on Wed and my need to be smartly dressed. My feet are going to hate court shoes more than usual. I want to see these boots in the 'flesh' first as they do have a slight MBT look about them. They must surely provide better support than UGGS?

fluffyknickers Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I too have lived in my fitflops (even though fell off them and ended up in hospital!) all summer. HOwever would like to see them and have a go in them. I dont have Uggs but prefer Celts who actually originally made Uggs before selling the brand off. I find they are more supportive and designs are gorgeous.

Reikiranf Posted September 8, 2009 Share Posted September 8, 2009 I'm sure that with a pair of jeans or trousers on they'll look just like my billows and when I wear them most people think I'm wearing Uggs As if! I do have a pair of knee length Uggs but they are my slippers I got my Uggs thanks to a thread on Omlet they are a moccasin style and lace up the front so are a lot more supportive than the usual type and I got them in TK Maxx for a bargainous £59.99.
