Also suitable for vegetarians and vegans of course.....

I bought these when they were still full price a few months ago - not bad quality for knock around type footwear.  Kiss

Gorgeous, but far too big for me Sad I bought a pair of boots on ebay for the Lincoln meet, but they are *just* too tight for my fat feet. If I can't stretch them, I might sell them here, they are a 5.5 and are LUSH.

I think they have a few other sizes in the shop. Glad you liked them!

A UK 6 should be a US 8, right?

As far as I know a UK 6 is a US 7 as I am a UK 10 which is a definitely a US 11.

Anyway my reason for posting is just to say that my girlfriend bought a size 6 of the boots in the original post in this thread from ebay and they look great on her! They are not leather, but look good enough that you probably couldn't tell unless you were wearing them, or were looking at them close up.

Ah, I'd been eyeing up that exact pair some months ago, but alas I can't walk in anything higher than a 1" heel - might topple over otherwise!

*raises hand*

I have a pair of those (a UK6) and can vouch that they are extremely comfortable, but unfortunately mine started to show cracks in an unattractive fashion after a couple of week's regular wear just to work, etc. You get what you pay for.
