What's the most comfortable boots ever?

36 replies

Last year I had some uggs, the Kensington ones so they are leather with a zip. So comfortable!

This year they look old so I need new boots.

I'm wondering if I should get some riding style boots or maybe sketcher boots as I had sketcher shoes which are great for walking.

Any suggestions? Also I would like them to be waterproof! Wink

In my feet's opinion, these:

uk.drmartens.com/uk/Womens/Womens-Boots/Dr-Martens-New-Auth-Wedge-Zip-Calf-Boot/p/10492003

Not the cheapest, but they will last years, and the soles are made of something more solid than diamond. They never wear out.

Blue yay! I've literally just ordered those ones in red. I agree, you can't beat DMs for comfort, plus they last forever

I'm watching this thread as I am so close to caving in and buying Uggs. I have resisted for years as I think they are ugly but my feet are cold and want comfort.

My Salomon gore tex walking boots were sheer bliss even on the first wear hiking a number of miles.

But I wouldn't recommend them for style!

For a more everyday option I've always been a well worn in pair of docs or army boots sort of woman.

I was going to say the same as Blue and Nation. I have three pairs, red, brown and black. They are very comfy and go with most things. The red and brown ones are on their 8th winter! My feet got a wee bit damp in the red ones today, for the first time ever, but nothing a bit of NikWax won't cure.

Have the DMs in black and lusting after another colour too. Fractured the DMs are v comfortable, and warm as well, due to the rubber sole.

What's the sizing like for the DMs? I'm probably 5 1/2, have wide feet but narrow heels!

Ninja I'm a 4.5 and have wide feet similar to a hobbit but without the hair I tried the DMs in the link from Blue* posted and have gone for a 5. They're very slightly big but will wear thickish socks. HTH

I have just bought some Rieker boots. They are designed for people like me with problems like arthritis, so are very well constructed and supportive.

Honestly hugely comfortable and lightweight too.

Uggs are worth every penny...like walking out in your slippers,especially the shorter ones.

Can anyone tell me what the calves are like on those DMs please? Are they for skinny legs or big enough for a "shapely" leg?
