I Envied and wanted these boots from the get go. But was unsure of spending so much. But it is well worth spending more on boots that are well made with top notch materials, as they keep on giving. These boots are incredibly comfortable, and the sole, rugged and well-formed made me feel super safe while walking. Which is important to me, as I had a total knee replacement this year. To begin with, I did the laces up right to the top of the boot. But that felt a little restrictive around my dainty ankles! So now I tie the laces up to the second last hole, and tie the laces round the back of the boot, and this allows the boots to be secure and unrestrictive round the ankles! I love the boots, the colour and the quality of the leather. Laces could be a bit more robust, I think.

I've wanted a pair of Grenson boots for many years but like many people, didn't have the money to splash out. However, when I realised there were various payment options available, I was finally able to justify the purchase. In a world where we're all conscious of steering clear of 'fast-fashion', these boots are a proper investment. The packaging was beautiful and you know you're opening something very special when you see the box! They are extremely comfortable from the very first wear and the only trouble I have now is that I really could do with a black pair!
