Boot survey part 3

It's time for another week-long boot wearing survey. This time the weather was cold but mostly dry.
Of 277 men, only 19% were wearing boots, but 52% of 250 women were in boots.

Compared to the last survey, which was in december and it had been snowing, there were fewer people wearing boots. I was wearing my tall boxing boots, which will have accounted for nearly all of the calf-length male boot-wearing.

Some more photos of my new Converse hi-tops

I have decided to wear my new Converse knee-hi boots today. I tucked my trousers into the boots to take these photos because they look better that way - you see the full height of the boot and the Converse All Star badge, which is above the ankle on these boots.
The photo above also shows my old Adidas Tygun boxing boots which I've had for nearly 10 years now.

Blue Wellies again

I had chance to wear my blue wellies this morning. I haven't worn these since the summer. I'm going to wear them around the house this morning until I go to work, when I'll change into my Lonsdale boxing boots, which I haven't worn for a while either.

I didn't realise I bought the Lonsdale boots back in 2009. I thought I only bought them last year. I had also forgotten how much I enjoy wearing my blue wellies. They might be shorter than my green wellies and don't fit my leg as snugly but they are a bit stiffer so they press against my leg more, which is what I really like about wellies.
