Since your comment, several other people have said they also had them. And I thought they were a fresh, new thing. Lol at myself. Fashion is indeed cyclical.</p> <p>The boots I have that are similar have a simple chunky block heel with that square toe. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s/page/2#post-1954159 Fri, 07 Sep 2018 22:57:18 +0000 Beth Ann 1954159@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I'm with Suz!&nbsp; I adore the "lite" version of this trend! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s/page/2#post-1954139 Fri, 07 Sep 2018 22:00:24 +0000 Katerina 1954139@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>The Cat and Smittie, thank you, I will keep them for a while more </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s/page/2#post-1954131 Fri, 07 Sep 2018 21:41:38 +0000 Helena 1954131@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fashionintern, they did!

I loved those olive velvet jeans.... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s/page/2#post-1953870 Fri, 07 Sep 2018 00:43:13 +0000 Suz 1953870@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Oooh!

They were black, and the proportions were more moderate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953769 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 17:17:22 +0000 tulle 1953769@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I've kept a pair of Ralph Lauren nipped-toe boots from that era because they are so pretty:&nbsp; bitter chocolate suede, over the ankle, gorgeous with long, boot-legged trousers.&nbsp; Not sure my feet can still handle the 3" heels, though! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953738 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 15:53:59 +0000 shiny 1953738@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>PERFECT.

I know this, and yet the 90s remain a total blank to me in terms of memorable fashion... lol </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953683 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 13:57:40 +0000 Anonymous 1953683@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I had some similar in dark brown too, but will pass on the extreme square toe this time round. I don't mind the rounded square toes though-and have some soft furry snow boots with it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953682 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 13:56:46 +0000 Janet 1953682@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Those remind me of some burgundy square toe booties that I had and loved for years — I think they were Nine West. I kind of like mixing things up with a square toe as long as it’s not too extreme, but I’m not doing heels that high anymore. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953680 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 13:51:20 +0000 Katerina 1953680@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>So fun! I have these square toe shoes from Sergio Rossi, wanted to pass them on a few times, but kept them because I love the quality. Do you mean they are getting trendy now LOL? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953668 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 12:45:48 +0000 Laura 1953668@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Fun to see some fellow Freelance fans! And yes to them being fab for skinny ankles! I recall nearly fainting when I paid $300 at Barney's for a pair, but they did last for years. I also had a pair of chunky black loafers from Freelance and clomped all over Manhattan in them. Ah, the 90s! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953666 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 12:40:16 +0000 Thistle 1953666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Wow.

They were perfect for skinny ankles and amazing quality. Bought them on a trip to Paris early 2000’s. I used to love square toe boots. Still have a pair almost identical to yours (another brand) and think I must haul them out now. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953544 Thu, 06 Sep 2018 01:24:28 +0000 Laura 1953544@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Massive 90s flashback! But they need to be black.</p> <p>Did anyone have boots like this from a French brand called Freelance? They were all the rage in the 90s and looked something like this.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/sooo-90s#post-1953504 Wed, 05 Sep 2018 22:37:28 +0000 Brooklyn 1953504@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Love me a square toe.

After years of poison eye I realize that now I miss them. I had a pair of black knee-highs from 2000 with square toes and a similar but lower heel. It'll be fun to see this trend return. These are groovy! </p>
