I need boots, probably brown and black-need brown first. DH wants me to get riding boots, so bonus points if they're flat/low heel and that style.

Cheaper than that LOL Preferably under $100. I have several things to buy in the near future and not a lot of fun money. Boo.

If you happen to wear a size 6 or 6.5, these are a great deal in the dark brown!

They're cute - but, since they're synthetic, they might look weird/fakey? I think you might be able to find something in real leather for <$100.

I thought your post title said boobs.

That is all.

Leaving now.

I have these in black:

piperlime.gap.com/browse/product.do?pid=270355012&tid=plggpb1r&kwid=1&ap=7&sem=true&pcrid=25250483370

They are very comfortable. It took me a while to find something with a slimmer sole and these were perfect.

I LOVE the way these look and ordered them but they were a bit too snug in the calf area. Also, I am 5'7 and proportional but they are really tall and awkwardly hit right below my knee, kind of pinching me. I'm so sad I have to return them.

Bummer! you're right, they hit at a kinda weird spot below the knee for me too. I hope it doesn't bug me too much because I love them otherwise!

I'm trying to figure C&P on my tablet but I have Ecco Hobart riding boots in both nubuck and black. They're great because they buckle at the sides and are adjustable for thin calves, wide calves, athletic calves or calf-calves. I have larger calves and they fit me great, whether it's with jeans tucked in or boot-cut jeans over them. Amazon has the nubuck for $99; I paid $189 each at Nordstrom's a couple years ago. They also have a couple other styles (single buckle, ankle) and mink triple-buckle for closer to $190.

Another vote for frye boots. The price is so hard to swallow but I searched downtown Chicago for three months (Macy's, rack, Nordstrom, tj Maxx, dsw, Aldo) and couldn't find anything I loved half as much as my Melissa buttons. Leather boots are pricey regardless, so I figured I should get a pair I really, really loved with the hope of wearing them for years. Ironically enough, my boyfriend's aunt wore her Fryes from 1979 to Christmas dinner.

[WOT?*]

And if ex hadn't gotten rid of my Acme boots from high school I'd still be wearing them too. Loved those damn boots and back in 1981 they were still $100+ and wore forever. (They were from a western-wear store and made to last riding and roping.) Good boots are an investment as much as a statement and something to wear.

[llamamama]

I got these from Macy's on Black Friday. I paid $30 so I'm not expecting great quality. I don't wear boots that often either. I've worn these once and like the look and the comfort is alright too. I don't live in a really cold place but I don't think these would be great for a cold climate.

I know the Amazon boots are synthetic, but they'll work for now. I decided I wanted 1 pair with a heel.
