#boot collection

[booteddaily]

Malady. Discomfort. Ailment. Injury. 🤕 Whatever you call it, I have a recurring situation that is keeping me out of boots for a second day in a row. 🤷‍♂️ So, all I can resort to is looking at some of the pairs available to me. Those of you who have followed my blog have seen most of these being worn, but you've not seen them in a group photo. I will be booted again soon, no doubt. 🤠 You boot men stay well in the meantime. 👊

With autumn in full force (everywhere except California), I figured I would take a introduce you to my boot collection! I don’t know why it never occurred to me to talk about my existing collections, but I figured I should try something new to try something new. For me, boots are pretty much a year-round footwear staple as long as the weather permits for the type of material; however, I know that boots are a very big thing for fall, so I thought I’d share my current boot collection and experiences for those who are in the market for new boots.

My favorite pair of boots is tied between this timeless tan suede and this elegant deep plum suede Saint Laurent Jodhpur. I got the tan boots in 2017, and if you’ve been following me for some time now, you know these boots and I have been inseparable! So much so, that less than a year later, I picked up the same style in this beautiful shade of purple. Though I’m not sure why Saint Laurent brands it as oxblood. The cut of these boots is probably the slimmest of all my boots; yet they are still SOOOO comfortable. I can wear them all day, or even on a night out, and my rather wide feet will still be okay! Everything about these boots from the details, to the suede, to the comfort is just *chef’s kiss*!

My oldest pair of boots, but also my least worn is this pair of brown combat boots from Forever 21. Don’t get me wrong, these boots are super comfortable and I really like the color, but I didn’t pay attention to some very crucial details when I bought them. I don’t know if you can tell, but these boots don’t have a zipper or anything would allow them be put on or taken off easily; especially when they’re laced. Secondly, the way that these boots lace up with hooks as opposed to eyelets are very true to combat boots, so it’s a lot of work for someone like me who’s always running late. Hahaha!

My second pair of combat boots is one that I wear a whole lot more purely from the existence of the side zipper. The faux shearling that lines these bad boys are super nice, but the boots themselves never broke in properly. Even though I wear these more than the brown boots, I can only last about three hours before my feet start are in distress. Despite them cutting off my circulation and blistering my feet, I’ve even worn these to Coachella and Tahoe in the winter because mama didn’t raise a quitter! If you’re thinking of buying combat boots from Aldo, I would suggest going up half a size because the material is way too sturdy to give.

The last pair for today and the newest addition to my wardrobe is this pair of leather Saint Laurent Chelsea boots. The cut on these is slightly wider than the Jodhpurs, so they’re EVEN MORE comfortable than my favorites! As I said in my {last post}, I’d never really wanted Chelsea boots since I wasn’t too big a fan of the elastic sides on traditional pairs; the leather strips that cover the elastic and create the ribbed texture give these Chelsea boots so much more visual interest to me. I’ve been wearing these quite a bit and they’ve already broken in, which could be a good or bad thing depending on what your take is on creasing. 

I don’t know if this is the type of content you’re interested in. I’m not saying you need to buy high end, luxury boots but I hope you got some takeaways in regards to sizing, cuts, designs, etc. If you have any boots that you live in or swear by, please let me know. I would be more than happy to give them a shot!

Ephemerally yours,
