Angie said they have longevity. Here is the thread:&nbsp;<a rel="nofollow" href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/longevity-of-otk-boots">http://youlookfab.com/welookfa.....-otk-boots</a> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772377 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 16:47:27 +0000 Janet 1772377@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I think that even when they are not actively trending, they are still sort of a modern classic if they fit your style, which I certainly think is true in your case. If they suited me better, I would wear them regardless of trend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772376 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 16:45:01 +0000 annagybe 1772376@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I still like them, a lot. Unfortunately my SW's, precursor to the 50/50's, don't fit my current calf size.<br /> ETA I wore cheap suede ones for NYE with an asymmetric skirt. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772375 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 16:43:35 +0000 Joyce B 1772375@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I hope they have some longevity, they are so pretty!<br /> I agree with you about the impractical for the weather part. Many times I wonder why I buy so many pretty shoes when in my weather what I wear mostly are my rain shoes!<br /> You can spray your boots with water repellent, I think that worked for other fabbers who own the beautiful suede OTKs. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772370 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 15:52:39 +0000 bj1111 1772370@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>@Bijou, they are so pretty but the suede is impratical for my weather</p> <p>@kkards, EXACTLY! &nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772351 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 14:11:23 +0000 kkards 1772351@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>i feel like these have their "moment"..but like the stan smiths a classic is a classic for a reason, and even when they are not the "hot" shoe there is still a place for them. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772314 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 08:19:09 +0000 Bijou 1772314@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Despite their current popularity, they work so well in colder climates and have a great luxe look, I hope they will be popular for a number of years to come. However, that said, I think you should wear and enjoy them as much as you can and not 'save' them for special occasions. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/otk-boot-longevity#post-1772305 Sat, 28 Jan 2017 07:21:00 +0000 bj1111 1772305@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Bought the lowlands yesterday. Will try the 50/50 as prefer leather to suede.</p> <p>Fundamental question, how many more seasons will these stay "current" as they seem overexposed this year in particular (like the white Stan smiths last summer). </p>
