I need some help......I bought my husband some boots for his birthday and he doesn't care for them

[a kennedy]

because they cut into his ankle when he drives the car. He's been sweet and worn them a few times but I have noticed lately they are pushed to the back of the closet. I asked him why isn't he wearing them now because they are kinda fall and winterish type footwear. He said that the top of the boot actually hits his ankle when he's driving and it actually hurts. So I have now put the ankle boots in the "give away" box. I need help in buying him some new shoes for winter that go with jeans, as that's all he wears. The boots I bought are too fancy to go with jeans. Any suggestions?? The boots I did buy were Uggs.

1. What does he wear now - that is an idea of what to buy.

5. well he's got "boots", ya know for shoveling and working around the house in Winter, but he needs

them for when he goes shopping, out, well not out that much now, but just errands etc. and he wears like almost a tennis shoe in black. Not the best for winter.

3. Why not take him shopping with you? Nt

8. I'm shopping on line right now, I think I'll just have him pick out the ones he likes, and we'll go

from there.

10. That should work; he can exchange them if they hurt. Nt

4. does he wade in sh*t?

Easy Spirit brand makes really comfortable winter wear boots, but I don't know that any are TALL.

google easy spirit mens boots

11. ha ha no, he doesn't wade in shit. 🤣

and I did look at the easy spirit boots, I think I'll just have him look at them and he can choose the ones he'd like.

6. How would you like HIM buying your shoes for you?

I say buy him something else and let him shop for his own shoes and boots. OR..... Give him a gift certificate. I do that for my hub. He loves Allen Edmonds. They are made in the USA, not like the made in China crap Ugg’s now.

9. Before you toss them find a shoe repair place and show them where it hurts.

A good stretching may be all it takes.

[a kennedy]

13. I think they are so stiff it might be really hard to soften them up........

I wonder if a shoe repair man would be able to cut the height of the boot to make it lower then ankle high.......hmmmmmm, now there's something to think about. Thanks for suggestion a shoe repair person.

15. I have worn Lugz for the last 6 years.

I've found them the most comfortable boots I've ever had. I also drive for a living and they have never hurt. Not very expensive and come in many styles.

16. Ask him what he wants. What does he like?

17. maybe Sorel?

I dunno. I like them because they have stylish winter boots for women. I know they make mens boots too.
