Try somewhere like rivithead.com or snaz75.com/gothboots. Great cust service on snaz75.com/gothboots.com. There's a site called sweetboots.com that carries New Rocks, too, but they're not known for 5 star customer service if you know what I mean. I got my boots there for like 50 dollars cheaper than anywhere else but it took 3 weeks.

Size 14-15??? How tall are you??? I'm guessing something around 6'?

And Mrs. Wes, I just took a look at those boots in that site and they're definitely next on my list!

Which ones?

If you guys are talking about Sweetboots.com, let me remind you that I am not making any recommendations there. I don't want anyone coming back to me saying I gave them bad advice. Google the website name. You might have to fight to get your merchandise. Then again, this guy could have loads of satisfied customers. Whatever the case is, I'm not responsible.

So Valerius, which ones DID you like?

Gah! I caved and bought 2 pairs of Demonia shoes. Shame on me. They'll prolly fall apart just like the rest. These are the shoes I bought:

I like the platform on the Tempos, and I plan on wearing the Dollys with stretchy PVC stockings to give the effect of wearing PVC thigh high flat sole boots. The dollys may actually survive, since I don't plan on wearing them that often.

those are cool.

What she said... That's how I go to school, I have a pair of Demonias as well. Skinny fit, tight, pegged leg, etc. fit well into them. Use your common sense people! In my opinion you shouldn't wear baggy trousers with boots, unless you're going wear baggy shorts that'll do fine.

DarkGentleman · 05-08-2007, 11:49 PM

I'll be ordering a pair of Demonia Riot 12 and a pair of Riot 20 next month. I'm just waiting for my daughter to make up her mind on which boots she wants for her birthday (end of June). So that way I can send the order all in once and get free shipping for my order being over $150.

She likes the Gothica 200 and some of the other shoes too. If all else fails, I'll just order the Gothica 200 for her anyways.

I do plan to get a pair of New Rock boots too, too bad I couldn't get the purple flame ones (they were for ladies only, I'm jealous lol).
I think the Classics or the Reactors will suit me just fine.

By the way, does anyone know where I can find New Rock Boot dealer in Canada?

I don't think there is one. I know that there are a few shops such as Barbies or Sanctuary that sell some New Rocks, but the selection is poor and the prices are marked up. Best place to order is http://www.newrockstore.com/zona1/catalog/
The closest is Las Vegas, I believe. I could be wrong. I ordered mine from the UK because the price was too good to refuse (it was a private sale). Anyways, good luck with that.

DarkGentleman · 05-10-2007, 09:06 AM

I went there few times before and even their Demonia boots where marked so high. A friend/co-worker refered me to a Demonia dealer in Sask. and their prices are rather fair with free shipping with orders over $150.

I will contact the New Rock in Las Vegas and see what deal I can get.
Thanks, Saddiction, ::big hug to you::

I have had my Demonias for over a year and in every instance, they have not failed me. They might be apt to falling apart, but I've walked, ran, moved furniture, installed air conditioners, and danced in them. They have yet to even show signs of falling apart.

You are one of the lucky ones, Kontan. I have so many pairs that have been retired because either the zipper broke, the heel has ripped, part of the sole has fallen off, or that the boot has actually lifted from the platform itself. I'm tired of shelling out money to have them repaired.

Considering the price for Newrocks?

C'mon now. Those bitches cost over $300 a pair.

Oh, I'm well aware of the price for New Rocks. They're worth every penny. I'm considering buying another pair later on this summer after I've caught up on my moving expenses.

KontanKarite · 05-10-2007, 02:13 PM

Hell, if I was lucky, I could afford maybe 1 pair a year and that was based on the time when I was making close to $3k a month with no living expenses.

Just out of curiosity, if you were making $3k/month without any living expenses, where did you allocate all of your monies to? You don't have to answer if you don't want to. I'm just curious.

Savings. Though I must admit, I haven't been a very good Taurus. Alas, that job is no more and honestly, I wouldn't have it any other way.

DarkGentleman · 05-10-2007, 10:38 PM

For the month of June, I have 3 paydays and my vacation pay payout. That's 4 checks directly deposited in my account there. Getting a pair of New Rock boots won't be a prob for me, as well as worth investing in, HOWEVER having to wait for the shipping can be a pain.
I figure a pair Demonias and a pair of New Rocks will be worth getting for myself this summer.

My daughter still hasn't decided which boots she wants. lol

Angel Apprentice · 05-14-2007, 04:40 AM

If you are spending alot of money on boots you need to tuck your jeans in!!!

I have just had a bad experience with SWEETBOOTS.COM after seeing your comment here I did a google search and thankfully i managed to get a refund after 5 months.. Thank you
I fully recommend avoiding them
