Buy

I lusted after these books for about two years. I finally bought a pair last year. I admit to having a bit of a romantic attachment to them because they are a British import and I've seen them in Vogue from time to time among the fashionable elite. Most of the time on their Hampton Estates or even worse on a 5' 9", 115lb model without cankles.

These boots come in a plethora of colors and a couple of different styles. I have the Original Tall boot in maroon. The great thing is that you can buy fleece inserts to wear inside them during the winter for warmth. NOW, they may not be as warm as some winter boots, but they do look better! Plus I have to walk three city blocks to and from my car everyday and have gone sledding in them for a couple of hours without having to amputate my toes from frostbite.

It is also nice to have boots almost no one else has. Last year I was the only one I saw with them and this year I've only seen two others. The problem is I didn't feel the same affinity for fellow Hunter wearers as those 'Jeep' people seem to do for each other. In true elitist style I felt more like attacking them on the streets.
