Winter Boots from Walnut Melbourne

By 58 Comments

One of things I love about Winter is wearing boots – actually that’s a lie, it’s probably the only thing I love.

 

Ankle boots or long boots, I don’t care – I love them all.

 

When the fab team at Walnut Melbourne offered to send some boots to the kids and myself to road test, I didn’t hesitate to say ‘yes’.

 

The hard part was deciding which ones because there were so many to choose from.

 

There were quite a few pairs of ladies boots but I chose the Chaser Leather Boot in Black. I wanted something I could wear with jeans, pants, skirts and dresses, and they looked like the best match.

 

I let the kids choose the boots they liked best and my daughter picked the Lily Long Boot (also in Black) and my son choose the Desert Contrast Boot Taupe Cobalt.

I’m usually a size 40 but decided to go up a size as I have a wide foot and have struggled in fit in size 40 ballet flats from Walnut in the past.  As soon as I put them on, they felt like the perfect fit. I wore them to work the next day and they were really comfortable.

 

The heel was a little higher than I would normally wear (as I have problems with my back and dodgy knees) so I was pleasantly surprised to find that these boots gave me no issues.

 

I’ve now worn the boots several times, including to events where I have been standing or walking around for long periods of time and the boots are really comfy.

 

My daughter has worn her boots a couple of times and she really likes them.

 

She calls them her ‘warm boots’ and loves to wear them when we go out, so she can wear a dress and not freeze to death.

 

I’ve bought her boots in the past and she has refused to wear them, so I’m thrilled to have found some she likes. I’ve decided to get her a tan pair as well.

 

 

My 4 year old loves shoes and has quite the shoe collection, so he was excited to try out the new desert boots. He has worn Walnut desert boots in the past but he thought these “dessert” boots were cool because they were different colours.

 

I loved the colours in these boots too and they match really well with lots of jeans and pants in his wardrobe.

    I would love to have the girls boots in Tan. I struggled to find girls boots this year that were not short. These look like a great length and very versatile.

    I love boots and am yet to find a short boot I love, but yours look gorgeous! Like you I have a wide foot and find a heal uncomfotable on my back if worn for too long.

    Usually I would say I would get a pair of boots for my daughter, but we spoil her so much that she already has a pair of Walnut leather boots and Walnut gumboots, as well as plenty of pairs of shoes (also Walnut). Since having my daughter, it has been all about her, and I havent bought myself anything for ages, so I think I would go a pair for myself. LOLA BOOT BLACK

    I adore the Chaser Leather Boot Charcoal Suede. They are the perfect replacement for my newly trashed boots thanks to visiting my daughter and her adorable new puppy.
