Fur lined Cons

kellygirl

Hi Fabbers,

Do any of you have the taller version of the fur lined Cons? The reviews say the zipper in the back is not that functional for getting them on and off. Is the higher shaft hard to style? Any input welcome. Thanks in advance!

I only have the lower ones, which I love. I think those could be great (and easy!) to style with cropped pants, but the zipper issue at the back would be a problem.

Don't do it. Too long and fussy. Zipper is useless.

The black ones are SO easy to get on and off with that stretchy gold section on the side (which looks great, too).

I have bought them and returned them for exactly that reason: despite the zipper, getting them on and off was a pain and required lots of effort. Too bad because they looked great and were warm and comfy, but it wasn't worth the effort. I went for the slightly shorter version in burgundy instead.

These sound functionally like sitting shoes. Which you'd wear only for looks, maybe having shut them in the back with fashion tape instead of zipping them, and not moving from your divan.

Not Cons usual image, but these could be the foundation for an après ski capsule. The extra height an ideal pairing with wide-crop brightly embroidered cream velvet lounge pants, which hike up a bit when sitting. And you could hide spicy licorice strips in the shafts, for nibbling when the help takes too long making rounds with hot beverages.

Thanks for indirectly bringing my attention to the black ones with gores. Easy on and off is a deciding factor many a day.
