Week 42: Some thoughts on my new boots.

For the last few weeks I've made sure I've only worn tall boots in work, and I've also worn tall boots a lot at home too. This week was no exception. On Monday I wore both my Adidas boxing boots and my new beautifully tall Lonsdale boxing boots - the latter I wore all day in work, laced up all the way, but with the boots inside the trousers.

Even though I didn't pull the laces tight, the boots still felt quite 'grippy' and tight on my leg. I expect they will get better after I have worn them a bit more. They are wonderfully soft and padded though. They feel really nice with the trousers tucked inside - as I found out when I went for a walk on monday evening.

I didn't wear the new boots for work on tuesday - I wore my Adidas instead - but I wore them briefly in the evening. I wore them all day on wednesday though. I laced them up all the way again. Even though I didn't pull the laces tight - I can easily get my hand between leg and boot - the boot still feels tight on my leg. My legs also got a bit warm and sweaty too.

On wednesday evening I did a bit of work in the garden. My blue wellies have been 'in storage', hidden away in the shed. I decided to put them on while I was outside. It's been ages since I've worn them - back in July.

I wore my Doc Martens for work on thursday but I wore my new boxing boots in the evening.

I wore my new boots for most of saturday - trousers tucked inside so that I could see the full height of the boots at all times - see yesterdays post and accompanying video for details. When I wasn't busy wearing the boxing boots I was wearing my doc martens or wellies.

On sunday I mostly wore my Levi's converse-style boots but I also wore my new boxing boots for a while. This means I wore my new boots for some part of every day this week.
