Black Lace Back Corset Leg Knee Boots

    Hi, I am looking for a pair of boots, preferably in black, but would be tempted by another colour if they were really nice.
    I want something that stops about an inch or two before the knee, has approximately 3 inch heel, and lace ups at the back.

    I found in pair in New Look, they were perfect, apart from one thing, they were too big around my calf, so looked baggy, and I want them fitted.

    I found these pictures on eBay, they are the closest thing I can find to the ones in New Look, but they aren't nearly as nice.

    Has anyone seen anything like them in the shops?

    What's the fascination with pointy-toed footwear these days? They don't do it for me at all. They're like the shoe equivalent of that Gaultier cone bra Madonna once wore - exaggerating/caricaturing a sexy body part (toes/boobs) to the point where they're not attractive at all. I'd rank them along with padded shoulders!

    It's probably just me though since all the girls are wearing pointy clown shoes these days. :P The rest of that boot looks great though!

    Oh they are just lovely, love the heel! Think they might look even nicer in a really dark brown though! Corkys had something similar a few weeks ago. Try River Island too.

    Did you try Korky's?

    I got a pair like them in Office, but that was a year to 2 years ago. I doubt they'll have them but they might have something similar.

    Couldent agree more, they look especially hideous when worn with flared jeans..
    Like something you would see a gypsy wearing.. :D Actually i take that back, not fair on the gypsy community..

    I agree, don't like them at all. I wonder who came up with the idea of sticking a big pointy end on the toe of a boot in the first place?? Odd.

    In other news, the mental image of Mrs Doyle in knee boots is not appetizing... :(

    Hey did the op eventually find these boots?
    Please post?:confused:


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,187 ✭✭✭Mrs_Doyle


    I got something similar, but with a wedge heel, in new look. But I am still on the hunt for a really cool dressy pair.
    I have tried Korky's, shuh, barratts, simon hart and Arnotts.
    If anyone else has anymore suggestion I would really appreciate them
    Thanks :)

    Hot as ****. Squirt.

    They look gorgeous.
    Dunnes are doing low-heeled, rounder-toed version of them at the moment. Heel is square and only about an inch, so perfect for me with my back troubles, but not as glam at all.
