Show us your boots

Just been into H&M and spotted these horrible Grenson, Trickers and McNairy rip off boots and shoes. They felt like the cheapest, most lightweight pieces of footwear that it has ever been my misfortune to handle, but they do show that the man in the streets tastes are catching up with the man (and woman) on the exclusive clothing/ fashion forums.

One look at the leather on the top boot and you know these are cheap as they look like they are made of plastic.

How much were they? They look like shit even by shit's standards
-
They were indeed cheap plastic, and cost £35 - £45 per pair.
-
Not to hate on people who can't afford the real deal, but even 50-60 USD for one of those is a crime… Inflation must be taking it's toll or this is just an example of the 'rip-off Britain' thing I've heard so much about.

I was going to take some pictures of the jackets too, lots of military repro looking stuff, flying jackets, plaid cruisers etc…
Some of the stuff looked quite cool, but when you actually touched them they felt so cheap. I doubt they would have lasted a month.
-
Would be a lot fecking easier to put them on as well… But seeing as how there's no vis on the straps as I wear them, I don't mind...
well why don
t you just bring them to a leathermaker? he can easily remove/cut the strap-part and re-sew the rest so that youll have the exact same boot but with a few inches less in hight… -
