I was just writing in another post how I'd like to find light &nbsp;combat boots for myself .

I have been wearing stockings with Smartwool socks on top for warmth with my lower booties and plan to switch to fleece-lined tights when it is even colder to cover the gap, but I want navy and dark brown, so that may be a search. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075980 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 15:21:09 +0000 Anonymous 2075980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You find the the best things at Marks. &nbsp;Glad to hear they work so well for you - and they look great with these cropped white jeans. &nbsp;Nothing like a good combat boot - and now I'm regretting passing mine on last year. &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075976 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 15:09:04 +0000 DeAnna 2075976@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have the same problem, but so far no luck in finding boots to close the gap. Your outfit looks so good with the new boots! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075968 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:48:42 +0000 Liesbeth 2075968@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've been on the hunt too, and have found one pair that closes the gap when standing tall... but not when cycling or sitting :/. The tall boots I posted earlier though, can effectively be worn under wider legged crops so yippie!<br /> I like your new boots and am cheering for you too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075963 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:42:22 +0000 Angie 2075963@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>KILLER</p> <p>YAY!&nbsp;</p> <p>No more cold ankles </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075948 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:13:28 +0000 Helena 2075948@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Great buy - looks fantastic! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075943 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 14:02:00 +0000 Carla 2075943@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@torontogirl - black (Calvin Klein (part cashmere!) from 2014 or 2015) </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075942 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 13:58:45 +0000 Helena 2075942@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Carla, this is another fab outfit! I love using cozy socks to close the gap between booties and pants - I know this was somewhat Pinterest-trendy a couple of years ago and no idea if it still is, but it's so cozy and practical that I plan to keep doing it! My favourite cozy socks are from Roots.&nbsp; </p> <p>ETA - is your jacket navy or black?</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/mind-the-gap#post-2075940 Fri, 08 Nov 2019 13:55:24 +0000 Carla 2075940@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>About a month ago I posted a boots/booties post.</p> <p><a href="https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/style-lab-booties-help" rel="nofollow">https://youlookfab.com/welookf.....oties-help</a></p> <p>I wear a lot of cropped pants, and really needed something that closes the gap in order to wear these bottoms into the colder months/winter. No one boot is going to do everything, but after visiting EVERY store that carries shoes in my locale, I lucked out with a boot that works for me. I was having a lot of trouble with tightness across the forefoot (bunions) or very heavy soles. This leather combat boot felt awesome out of the box, and was very light weight. The footbed is removable, so can be replaced/upgraded with orthotics, and I was able to lace it loose over the foot, but nice and snug about the ankles. With nominal lining, I’m wearing them with my Smartwool socks, and have ample wiggle room. Worn for about 4 hours and a 7km urban walk already.</p> <p>(I was prepared to pay 3x what I paid for these so consider them a steal! Since I can’t post Finds, I’m including product information from website.)</p> <p>#1-2 outfit worn for walk<br /> #3 Ainsley leather combat boot - Denver Hayes/MWWH<br /> <a href="https://www.marks.com/en/denver-hayes-womens-ainsley-quad-comfort-leather-combat-boots-black-260654.html#260654%5Bcolor%5D=BLACK&#038;260654%5Bwidth%5D=WID" rel="nofollow">https://www.marks.com/en/denve.....dth%5D=WID</a> </p>
