These Boots Are Made For Walking

My pair of boots from Rivers been with me for donkey years. I've loved this pair of boots coz of its comfort and good looks when I slipped them on but time has finally caught up with them..

I've gone thru a second pair of laces with them, the soles are worn down till the 'flowers' are all gone. There's holes underneath for water to seep in on wet days and they've started to do the crocodile open wide wide which I've glued down once but its just a losing battle for them. Time to put them out of their misery!

And get myself a new pair of boots! I was going to get Blundstone boots but they're very dear but I've decided to give these a go. They're half the price of the Blundstone brand but have the same style. They're made by Grosby who specialises in school shoes!

Kmart was having a 15% off everything in store so I thought I might as well grab a pair at A$34.00 These are comfortable work boots but they are quite fashionable nowadays as casual footwears as well.


So these boots are made for walking, that's just what they'll do. One of these days these boots are gonna walk all over you!

Somehow, wuching's statement of "I dun mind wearking skins on my feet nor my head" has some connotations that can be rated XXX hahahahahaahha
