OK, so I think I mentioned awhile back that the soles of my Ecco hiking boots had some sort of chemical reaction meltdown and as a result I have a $150.00 gift certificate from Ecco. Seems a shame to let THAT go to waste, but turns out I don't really "get" the Ecco style. Seeking your help.
I could go a few ways: A) replace hiking boots with other hiking boots or shoes - which might be nice for...hiking. B) take the opportunity to get a cute pair of casual "sneakers" to wear with jeans or C) use my $150 as a down payment to invest in some really nice tall boots.
OK hipster boy, what do you think? (and it's OK to say, um, none.)

| These would just be a flat out replacement for my current winter boots - which are old and do leak. |

| For hiking. Will we hike? Link |

| with jeans...I'm not sure I'm hip enough for these. But I love the name. It's called the Jogga. Link |
 |
| with jeans...I'm not even sure I like these other than the lime soles. Link |

| I like these for with jeans...because I'm a dork, and apparently have the footwear taste of a 60 year old. Link |

| Mmmmm. boots. These come in black and brown and after my $150.00 I would still owe $80.00. Link |
Ok, I like shoes (but not in a creepy co-worker kind of way), so this should be fun.
ReplyDeleteIn order:
--Replacing current leaky winter boots seems like a practical idea. I'll leave it at that.
--We may hike. I don't have serious hiking shoes, and I've rarely had an issue. These seem like serious hiking shoes.
--The leather ones look cooler, but they still kind of look like they're just for hiking.
--These are my favorites, and I think they'd look cool with jeans. I believe the "Project Runway approved" description of these would be "fun & flirty."
--I'm not sure either of us is cool enough for these. Jogga just makes me want to say "Holla!", however.
--I'm with you on these - the green soles are about all they have going.
--I don't think maryjanes are that dorky, until you add that giant button. Yes, I not only know what maryjanes are, but I can differentiate ones I like. Again, staunch record of heterosexuality here.
--The boots are hot. They look super high (those would be hip waders on me), but if you're looking for boots and willing to chip in the extra $80, these are pretty sweet.
Also, writing this has increased the likelihood of me winding up on Zappos.com tonight by like 1000%.
