I love it.</p> <p>I'm not a fan of this style at all for me. I hope you find what pleases you, though, and maybe cheaper than $425! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847283 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 17:57:13 +0000 Karin L H 1847283@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Such cool boots, I'd love a pair too - for a cheaper price..! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847276 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 17:22:00 +0000 bridgie 1847276@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These had not been&nbsp; on my&nbsp;radar before your post, but now I will be following with interest. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847271 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 17:09:58 +0000 Greyscale 1847271@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thinking more about this... &nbsp;I hadn't really been looking for new boots, but this style would be perfect to wear with either skinnies or rolled boyfriend jeans. I personally prefer the versions that are on the more masculine side. I think something like this is going onto my wish list for fall!</p> <p>I loved my granny boots (flat, low lace up boots) in the 90s. Amusingly this style is also perfect for my Victorian costume requirements when I'm part of the Dickens Christmas Fair.</p> <p>It's not quite the same but I've been eyeing these kids' J Crew chukka boots for ages (their larger sizes fit me perfectly - I'm usually a kids' 4). They might fill this niche for me. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847190 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 13:15:07 +0000 delurked 1847190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Interesting. I've considered lace up boots as my next boot, as I think the style works for my vibe, and could be comfy for my feet due to the lower heel. I admit when LP mentioned prairie chic, I did cringe a bit as that wouldn't be the interpretation I'd prefer. I'll be on the lookout for my style within this look.</p> <p>Along this vein, I tried these clarks. They were an almost for me, but I did end up getting a pair for DD. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847184 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 12:48:39 +0000 always trying 1847184@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These boots look like the boots you seein photos, old movies, etc. worn by boys with their knee pants, in the early 1900's. Thus the name " box car boots. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847120 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 08:54:06 +0000 Style Fan 1847120@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I love them.&nbsp; Great look but the thin sole would not work for my feet.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847082 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 02:45:12 +0000 Anonymous 1847082@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I thought granny boot redux at first and found them a little disappointing as a next big thing because the lacing on granny boots is annoying. So annoying, that they often have zippers up the back or over the ankle which negates the function of the lacing and reduces it to a detail.</p> <p>But there's actually not enough acing on these to prompt zippers and this type of boot can be an excellent fit for low volume feet so I'm sold.</p> <p>I don't wear "aged" clothing so the finish does not appeal but I love the Blackstone KL67s that Greyscale posted! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847072 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 01:58:36 +0000 LaPed 1847072@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I always refer to this type of steampunk lace-up boots, in my head, as "granny grunge" or "prairie chic" -- definitely on the lookout for something similar. Have owned two vintage pairs (both Santana Canada) very similar to these (the worn in secondhand vibe helps), one black and one brown. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847070 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 01:53:54 +0000 Jaime 1847070@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Definitely a vibe that can be found at a cheaper price point and/or second hand. I like the outfit a lot! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847064 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 01:47:59 +0000 Greyscale 1847064@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>They make me think of some Timberland boots. I like them. Low-key, broken in, casual but a bit refined. I like the lower shaft and thin sole.&nbsp;</p> <p>Here are a few finds - none are perfect.</p> <p>And a link to the real deal for those who are curious:<br /><a rel="nofollow" href="https://thisisthegreat.com/collections/boots">https://thisisthegreat.com/collections/boots</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1847062 Fri, 22 Sep 2017 01:21:18 +0000 Anonymous 1847062@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those remind me of some Naot booties that I spotted recently on Amazon.&nbsp; The styles are not quite the same but have that worn in look which does make them seem casual and able to go with a variety of outfits.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1846538 Wed, 20 Sep 2017 10:47:40 +0000 gryffin 1846538@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Boot girl chiming in to say I love the style. Of course the big question is do they come in black May expensive though. We will have to see what happens when they become available. But live the look!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1846535 Wed, 20 Sep 2017 10:25:53 +0000 cindysmith 1846535@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Runs With Scissors, I was going to say BedStu too! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1846504 Wed, 20 Sep 2017 04:12:39 +0000 Firecracker (Sharan) 1846504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes, those are cool looking.

What do you like about them? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-kinda-boots#post-1846491 Wed, 20 Sep 2017 02:39:38 +0000 always trying 1846491@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Just found these boots-called Box car boots. Apparently they are not available in regular retail yet, or at least only one source for $425.00. Did find the source and they were only available in size 5.&nbsp; _Not that I would pay $425.00 anyhow. They are supposed to be the IT boot for fall 2018.</p> <p>Anyhow I shall be on the lookout for some like these at a more affordable price.</p>
