I have several pairs of square toed heels , pumps, boots and casual shoes. Are they in style still or out? Thanks!

I could be wrong, but square toes do seem a bit dated. Perhaps depending on the rest of the outfit being current, you can still make them work. I have to do that with some of my shoes; can't afford to toss them all out if they're still serviceable.

I have square toed boots that I love and wear.

I personally love square toed shoes whether they are currently in or not. So if you love the shoe, I would keep.

They seem a bit dated to me at this point, but everything that's out eventually comes back in again (pointy toes, flares!), so I would keep.

Square toes aren't trendy, though you'll still see them around (especially for boots). If they shoes are very comfortable they may be worth holding onto, but keep in mind that if/when square toes come back around again the design detailing might be different. If you could post photos of the shoes we could give you more specific advise about each pair

I have a few pair (Etienne Aigner) that I wear. No one I know seems to know the difference anyway and they are super comfortable. I cannot wear pointy toed shoes.

Angie told me to go ahead and donate my squared-off knee boots... so I'm thinking dated. But then my boots were super old. The squaring was pretty wide.

Acne Studios did a square toe for Fall 2014. But mostly with a high thin heel.

Boots, yes. They remind me of Frye's.
No on the Liz Claiborne, too thick a heel.
Maybe on the Cole Haan's

Same as Anna, I vote keep the boots, donate the Liz Claiborne, and maybe on the Cole Haan (if they're very comfortable, keep while looking for a replacement).

I say keep the boots and the Cole Haans. The middle ones seem dated to me.

These are pretty good quality, which makes a difference, too. I wouldn't buy #2 today, but I might keep them in my closet. They look almost retro to me, with the high vamp and stylized heel, like a 30's starlet's shoe.

Love the boots!
