Winter Boots from Walnut Melbourne

July 27 2014 By melbournemamma 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.

    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

    My boot’s are made for walking
    And this is what I do
    With three kids to walk briskly after
    I need a good pair of boot’s too
    My boot’s I’ve currently got
    Have holes thru to my socks
    I would love to win a pair of Walnut boots to put the peep back in my hop
    My boot’s I do love
    But they are so very worn
    Lucky I know my shoe size it will help me choose the right pair!! Oh what an awesome prize
    My boot’s are made for walking
    And lots of this they do
    But my fingers are doing all the talking
    Which pair should I choose?
    My favourites are the CHASER LEATHER BOOT I prefer the ANKLE BOOT different to the long boots which I’ve got
    Perfect for any occasion and the Tan colour leather perfect for this winter weather
    My boot’s are made for walking
    And my toes are tightly crossed
    Secretly wishing I can win some now boot’s at the Walnut Melbourne Shop

All she ever wanted was to have a family of her own, but there are thoughts Grace cannot share with anyone in the months after childbirth.
