Impulse spending (bootses take two)

[badseed1980]

So I just ordered a pair of Ugg boots on eBay. They're Ultimate Tall, in Chestnut. They look like this. They're cheapish compared to others because although they're new, the seller doesn't have the box anymore. I was going to just buy some Classic Tall ones directly off the website (since shipping was free, the price would have been the same as for these), but they're backordered until mid-February. Nope, not gonna cut it. I'm very excited. My last pair of Serious Boots were bought from Eddie Bauer when I was about 12. They finally bit the dust two years ago. I hear these Ugg things are pretty durable and comfy, and the idea of being barefoot inside sheepskin boots makes me very happy indeed. It's a BIT more than I wanted to spend, but I think it will be worthwhile. Mmm. Bootses. Sheepie bootses. Yay.

They do look warm. As for appearance, you might try dying them; there are also a lot of different ways to ornament leatherwork, if you're interested in such. Not everything made of leather *has* to be playwear, but sometimes it's nice if it looks that way.

Well, these are more suede than leather. They're shearling, to be precise. Personally, I think I'd feel a bit silly trying to sex them up. They're just kinda rugged. And that's cool. I like the way they look.

If you're pleased with them, by all means ignore my tastes -- *I'm* not the one wearing 'em. I'm glad you're pleased.

best,

I bought Ugg "Brooks" boots with some overtime pay a couple of months ago. They are the fabulous! So comfy, and they will be perfect for festivals that happen to be rainy and yuck.
