    Hi, just wondering where to get a nice black r brown pair of the biker type boots that seem to be really on trend this season. Either ankle or calf lenght. Iv seen them in river island but they are 100 and upwards so llooking for something a little cheaper than this. Thanks

    I'm on a similar hunt too!

    Schuh and Office have the Rocket Dog range, but there are all a funny fit, even the nice new Earl ones (see below). I had a look at them in real life and they look cheap and fit like wellies :(

    You might find they fit you tho.

    Try Topshop, these look okay:

    Well i looked all over town and really didnt see anything i liked as much as the ones in river island. So i splashed out on them. They were 100, kind of expensive for ankle boots but they are suede and leather and that seemed to be the general price around town for a genuine leather pair in this style. Thanks for the suggestions anyway.

    I have a pair of Rocket Dog boots like those ones. First wet day I wore them, they let water in. I don't know if I got a bad pair or not but just to let you know!

    AFAIK they aren't leather :( Shame.

    Good job in finding boots you like OP.

    Spotted these from Red or Dead..pricey but leather..

    I've got those ones too, I didn't have a problem with them at all. They go with everything really and look really cool! :)

    I have a pair of Rocketdog boots like that too -definitely not leather but I find them brilliant for bad weather. Wore them all through a snowy Toronto winter and didn't get wet feet!

    I got a nice pair in Barretts about two years ago. Maybe check there.

    Really?!? Which TK Maxx was that in? I was in Stephens green today and didn't see them. That's an amazing price for Carvella

    I got a pair in a shop in the Ilac centre a couple of weeks ago-they'd loads of different styles for about €30-€40. Decent leather, just below my calf, I love them. Cant remember the name of the shop but its a tacky boutiquey kind of shop (I know Im not really selling it here but they do some great shoes!). Just opposite the Obriens/bathrooms. Worth a look maybe?

    Saw them too. I love them and wanted to buy them but they didn't have any 8's.
