I've begun my boot wardrobe with these shoe boots by Durango: Durango shoe boot (black) I just ordered them today, so I don't know if they'll fit. If I keep them, they should last a nice long time. I had a pair similar to this that I loved, but they weren't nearly the quality; in the first place, they were previously owned, and in the second place, I'm pretty sure they came from Payless Shoe Source. Even so, they were the most comfortable pant shoes I have ever worn. I have high hopes for my new shoe boots. And they come in brown & red, too! These are my next purchase. La Dolce Divas approve of these and that's enough for me. I'm a bit worried that they'd be too small for my ankles but they have a gore and they're made with stretch 'leather' so maybe they'd work. How cute would these be with longer skirts?: Naturalizer Ramon (black) These are what I'll get when I've saved enough. I tried these on at a local store and my feet...
