| | | I love boots. I could browse for boots just about every day and not get tired of it.
I'm always looking for a pair of boots to fit a specific situation.
Boots for hot dry weather.
Boots for hot wet weather.
Boots for hot dry weather and work.
Boots for hot wet weather and work.
Boots for cold weather.
Boots for cold wet weather.
Boots for cold wet weather and work.
Nice boots for going out.
Boots for running, climbing, hiking.
I'm obsessed.
I just spent an hour browsing for boots here: http://www.lapolicegear.com/footwearboots.html
It's ridiculous. Now I'm looking for something for hot/rainy weather, but that's comfortable wearing all day, so a nice soft sole but able to take a beating from working in all day.

| | | I love boots too.
But mine are more the spike-heeled, knee high, pointy toed, sex-me kind.
Although I've though about getting a nice 'riding' style to wear over jeans.

| | | Yeah, mine are more like, "I wanna conquer something" boots.
I've definitely come to the realization, that the coolest looking boots, definitely aren't the most comfortable, or practical.
The most comfortable and practical boots often look like running shoes nowadays.

| | | Hey, if obsessing over boots causes you satisfaction, then why not
At first I thought I misread and it should have been "I love boobs"

| | | | As long as you don't wear ugg boots. I am sick of seeing those already, because every girl here wears them.
I just wear standard issue combat boots. Sometimes my Adidas sneakers. I have a pair of cowhide workboots, that I wear when I am going to get dirty or go fishing or something. | |

| | | Haha. Awesome Fras.
Some of the women who come to visit are awed at the fact that I have several pairs of boots.
If you invest in a high quality pair, I find them to be some of the most comfortable footwear. (Not lace-ups, I do not care for those).

| | | I love my boots, too. My favorite pair look kind of like Tiay's, but they have a proper heel on them.

| | I was thinking about getting these pair of Converse boots (yes Converse shoes):
They're more shoe-ish, but sometimes, especially if I'm working indoors, I don't need my more clunky military spec boots.
Belleville boots are nice because the soles are softer and better for maneuvering and walking, but I don't usually need all that ankle support if I'm constantly crouching/kneeling and such.
They don't look cool, but I think for what I need they would be nice. Plus they have a composite toe, which is basically a lesser steel toe.

Fras.. those are converse boots? WHAT? 0.0 I had no idea they made boots like that. They actually look pretty good, though.

| | | yeah one of my favourite things about Europe is all the funky boots the females have been rocking. Theylook so f-cking hot.
Back in Sydney I had sex with my girlfriend while she was only wearing her boots. She loved it. I was incredible. Like a tiger. Rawr. | | Loveforum Breaktime | | |  | Loveforum also recommend - Green tea - Help in weight loss and decrease rate of getting cancer.
