New Riding Boots…
I’d been in a bit of a quandary recently, hunting out new boots for the Winter. The requirements were simple enough: nothing tacky looking (not wanting to end-up looking like a bad impression of those “Pretty Woman” boots), a nice style that could be matched with almost everything in my wardrobe and of course not too much heel to walk or cycle in. My search finally came to an end when I spotted these on ASOS…
With their trademark elasticated sides, the Chelsea Boot is a practical piece of footwear, being easy to slip on and off and also stands the test of time as a stylish wardrobe staple. Now, the last time I owned a pair of boots like these, I was in Secondary School: the wannabe Mod in me loved them back then, and the fact they’re featuring in current winter trends now shows they are a timeless classic.
These ones ticked all the boxes: fantastic colour, as it’s nice to veer away from the usual Black or Brown coloured boots, and they should do a good job on keeping my feet warm and dry while on the Pashley in this weather. I’m going to be putting them to the test tomorrow, as I’m meeting up with Horst Friedrichs for more work on his upcoming Cycle-Style book (big announcement on that to follow soon!) – will let you know how they roll on the bike!
