I just have boring combat boots... but I wanna get something like the ones here http://a248.e.akamai.net/f/248/5462/...s/bp11m6ag.jpg

Or here

Basically, tall with a bunch of straps. One of my friends calls them Cyber boots, but I have no idea what that style is really called.

What size does 41 translate to in American?

I'm not sure why it says "UK men's" - men's and women's sizes are the same here... *shrugs* I didn't know that men's and women's shoes are different sizes to each other in the States! Confusing...

Yes, they're the New Rocks with the bat on the toe.

I usually wear a size 9.5 wide, and the 41s fit me with room to spare. I'd say they're something like a U.S. women's size 10+.

I just tried to explain somebody what a wedge shoe was, and while googl'ing for an example I found this beauty:

I'm in love.

(Hmm, this isn't really goth anymore, but it's a shoe and it's Gorgeous!)

I REALLY want the last pair of boots in that set of photos...they would go so well with my tattoo.

Thanks! They take forever and a day to lace up though - no side zipper and they're designed so that you have to unlace half of them to take them off. >.<

OCD Insomnia 03-09-2006 10:25 PM

Wow. that would be time consuming.

WolfMoon 03-09-2006 10:44 PM

But totally worth it!

My rockin' 60's boots! I found them at a thrift store. They're more magenta than red, though they look red in the picture. Sorry for the bad picture- I took a pic of the boot on my foot in the mirror.

WolfMoon 03-13-2006 09:08 AM

THOSE BOOTS!!!

It is to drool.

pheramoans 03-13-2006 10:02 AM

Those are frikkin' cool. I'm very jealous.

One time I found the cutest pair of red platform sandals in Value Village, but they were too small. You wouldn't believe my dissapointment.

I saw a pair of the awesomest shoes in Trivium once. They had about 4 inch coffin heels and a buckle over the middle of the foot. So cool. But I didn't have the money to buy them, and my parents would have freaked if I did.

New Rocks aren't my style. They have no grace.

I generally wear a pair of crappy clunky-high-heeled oxford-style things. The rubber on the heel is quite worn through (only been wearing them for about 6 months, too) and has exposed the hard part of the heel, but that's OK cuz they make a nice, sharp clonk when I step right.

*drools all over Bunnicula's boots*

Oops! Sorry hun ;)

WolfMoon 03-14-2006 08:01 AM

EPS!!!

For the size problem you could try using insoles to compensate for the smaller foot. That's what I did when I got my Docs.

My newest boots...
