Just got feet, don't got SHOES

Most comfortable pair of boots i've ever owned. ZERO break in period and they are perfect for dress up and casual. even better looking broken in.

Hey guys

what is like a good place to buy well made but not too expensive (<$100, ideally <$70) stylish oxfords and boots?

Do people have like a secret place that is the best? Macy's? I don't know. Not Kohl's.

ideally IRL and not online

Nordstrom's Rack?

DSW has a lot of good brands

Maybe! Is DSW a store or just online? They also have to be wide and like okay yes this is getting ridic I am just going to give up on shoes

no more shoes

DSW have big stores! usu in strip malls

according to the google machine, the Philly DSW is located thus:
DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse
2385 W Cheltenham Ave #520, Philadelphia, PA

i have found my boots but now something has to make them magically less expensive

no cyber monday sale?

Oooohhhhh.

not on these :( maybe there's a zappos coupon or something?

aren't they perfect?! they look comfortable, sturdy, and so attractive!

They're well-proportioned, they're simple and not showy, the heel is perfect...so great!

I am wearing boots v v similar to those today!

No comment.

But then again I don't know what's happening to me because I really want these:

Should I buy them if I don't know whether my unemployment will be cut off at the end of December even though I have another 2 months allowed?

Shit.

i didn't buy the boots i wanted
(yet)

Welp, I just confirmed that my unemployment will be cut off as of end Dec thanks to the lack of legislation to continue supporting it. No winter boots for me.

Let's hope for not too much snow this year, shall we?

Someone will hire me to do something, eventually, won't they? I'm talented and I have a lot of experience at things. And I really want those boots.

absolutely for sure 100%
but if you need boots in the meantime, the ones i got at target have been ok for a couple of years. not sure why or how, but they're just fine after 1.5 chicago winters. nothing special, but cheap boot technology has improved a lot since the last time i bought some.

"WILL WORK FOR BOOTS"

I ordered them. Fuck it. I haven't owned winter boots since...never in my adult life. I bought some hiking boots in college but never replaced them once they went, and I've just been pulling up my wool socks ever since.

Those are beautiful. I've had my eye on similar - hadn't seen those particular ones.

And you've been working your ass off and will be hired.

Well 2013 was the year of rounding out my shoe wardrobe with the functional things I don't usually own. Sensible flat oxfords (with spikes, naturally), then SNEAKERS (god love me), now rain boots (albeit with a little heel). Short of nuclear winter, I feel ready for whatever comes.

And these, just for fun.

i'm ready to drop some $$$$ on some nice boots, probably frye, but i'm feeling a bit wary of the leather soles: i'm tough on my shoes, and these would be an everyday boot, wondering how often i'd have to resole them and how expensive that typically is.

ooh those are really nice
I need some flat ankle boots and have done for the past two years. I have some cheap crappy quality ones as placeholders until I find my dream ones but I'm wearing them all the time and wondering if I should buy a backup pair for when they inevitably break!

yeah i have a great pair of dark brown ones from miz mooz that i've worn pretty much nonstop this fall/winter, and they're super comfy, rugged but not bulky. i've been looking for a black pair to alternate them with. i really like that shaft height a lot, it works perfectly on my short legs.

Re leather soles: Before you wear them, take them to the shoe place and have them apply a grooved rubber layer. Less slippery, wears better, can be easily taken off and replaced.

excellent idea!!

I wore my Frye's with leather soles pretty lightly for 2 seasons and then really hard for another season. Now they need resoled.

GOT NEW SANDALS!!

kinda hate them though

here they are lookin fly when they're not on feet:

the first ones are kinda nifty but the second ones feel very basic and pedestrian
