Too funky, aren't they?

Those are nice; I like 'em.

I just want them for winter camping / hiking in the wilderness ... not some fashion statement !

That I get. Most folk do wear them as fashion and for hiking at the mall.

THAT would be me in the pristine mall walking in those furry joints....

because with my luck if I tried to go camping in the Yeti boots I would come back with leaves, thistles and a clump of dog crap stuck on the side of the foot tangled all up in the fur.

Yeah, folks thought Uggs were bad enough.

That's what I call them... they remind me of Chubaca.

The men's Tom Ford Furries? Yeah...

and if they were fake the snow would turn the faux fur into a matted polyester mess.

I hope they are less expensive than the Tom Ford's... he want over 9,000 for a pair.

That would buy a whole Yeti man !

I think they were Roxy (?)

Prada had a pair too

I like furry boots, but I'm not crazy about these.

Well, commercially, they are rather feminine, Tittypants.

... or I just like those shoes and wear whatever the fuck I want to wear, without having to reduce myself to clichés?

I was wearing high-heeled shoes way before I even knew Prince existed. I am on this site because I was fascinated that there does exist a world that seemed to be surrounded with music, free thinking and living, positivity and funky clothes and that I was not the only "weird" person on this planet. Not the other way round - I didn't become this "weird" person because Prince is "weird".

Oh, please do insinuate something else! If my sexuality is what you're aming at - note that most of the gay folks wouldn't wear those shoes for a million pounds!

This is true.

Aren't most transvestites heterosexual anyway?

Yes.

No, as many have said before, they are ugly. (And really isn't that the biggest sin of all.)

i like them , and if you like them & want to wear them i think it's great! i really think you could pull the look off.

Yes.

Just for the record though - I'm not a transvestite. I'm not thriving to look like a woman. I'm just putting on whatever I think might look funky, not expecting 80-year-old grannies to call me a "nice, elegant, young man".

Machaela said:

Fun ~

MMM...I want my feet to look huge and furry. Like a wooly mammoth feetz.

I don't get the appeal of these type boots unless you're in a remake of Return of the Jedi.

edit:

not to mention if one's leg is that width or wider from the calf up, then you have big ole furry tree trunk legs.

I guess it depends on the weather and climate where a person lives. I live in Germany, Dave lives in Austria, so when winter hits we're all so covered up, that boots and coats become the most important (and often the most dramatic) elements in what we wear. Also, because we we're bordered by the Alps (along with Italy and Switzerland), ski and Alpine culture is very pretty intense here, and aprés ski boots never really go out of style. I wouldn't see them so much in the city unless we had a major bizzard, but if you travel down to the Black Forest or to the Alps, everyone 's wearing them, just trudging around...stomping through the forest and over the mountains..with tree trunk legs .

Come on...didn't Snuggles there tug at your heartstrings even for just a teeeeeny little bit???

Fake fur was invented for those who don't want their compassion for widdle wabbits & such to get in the way of their fashion sense.

They're boots anyway...why waste good pelts on your FEET???

You're still not getting it. The point is...if you're opposed to fur, you shouldn't want to even hint that you are wearing animal skins.

why? just because you say so? he missed the point cause there was no fucking point

I can enjoy a replica of the Mona Lisa in my living room without having to rob the Louvre

and I can ask my girlfriend to wear somthing like this and enjoy it together with her without the need of a leopard getting killed.

so what was your fucking point? oh yes, it was missing

I can also enjoy playing Call Of Duty and not think it's okay to run around the city gunning down real people

and I can enjoy watching porn together with my girlfriend without the need to attend a swinger party

point. destroyed.

I like the boot all except for the heel... Im not a big fan of wedge heels....

I get her point... Its kind of like vegetarians eating meat flavoured tofu products... You want the flavour of meat, eat the real thing... If you are opposed to something it seems odd to alot of people that a person will wear, or eat something that is a "representation" of the original...

Mistadobalina said:

Dave, I like the boots.

I'm not getting into any deep conversation about it, because I just don't do that here on the org. But the bottom line is, I like the boots.

I like your way of arguing. Marry me!

meat flavoured tofu, good comparison! even better than mine

if I like the taste, why not? what's the problem? Genesia is certainly not the one to decide for me or others. if I like the look of a leopard suit or the look of fur, what's the problem? I can't see one, seriously.

and I could argue that explicitly using a substitute and showing it in the open to everyone is in fact a statement, part of a mission to convert others also to AVOID real fur or REAL meat. come to think of it, if you are against it, it makes TOTAL sense to let everyone know: "I USE SUBSITUTE! I DON'T KILL ANIMALS! FOLLOW ME AND DO THE SAME!"

Good point!

We could probably argue the point back and forth for a long while, but instead, Imma go cook up some bacon in my fur slippers!!

okay, here's another one if I reject ebony and ivory to be used for my piano, according to Genesia my keyboard should look like this?
