    Just been for a drive to asda to see if they have any of these,

    our asda had loads of brown ones and 1 pair of black ones, so i though i'd be in luck.

    When i looked at them i though they looked plastic and cheap, then i noticed there are 2 different types mixed together.

    So be careful when your out there, because both say reduced from £38 to £20, out of about 20 pairs of the leather coated ones, there was 3 real leather ones, these have the leather tag by the price.

    No size 5 for me, but they had size 4, i tried these on and they was a perfect fit, brought them home, tried them on, and they are lovely, but the plastic sole and heel are a real let down, and the pastic stitching around makes them look cheap.

    I've just looked at the link above and they are the ones that are leather on the feet, but textile on the calfs.

    it does actually say that in the description. The ones i got only have 1 buckle on the top and they have 1 leather rim round the ankle, and just say leather, and like i say have the leather tag on them, the other ones don't
  • The brown boots I ordered I've now got :D Got a pair of the black ones in store, thinking they were my size (earlier this morning). But turned out to be a size & 1/2 bigger. Had to go back to the store to get a refund & the sales assistant on George also gave me 2 50p vouchers for having go go back (which I wasn't expecting to get anyway).
    Going to see if I can get the black ones online
