Okay, let’s talk about these boots that have been through CLUBS, retail shifts, and even a music video with me. First off—YES, they’re cute. The chains? The studs? *Chef’s kiss*. But let’s get real.
COMFORT LEVEL: Surprisingly good? Wore them for an 8-hour shift and my feet didn’t stage a revolt. Lightweight but sturdy—no ‘bricks strapped to feet’ vibes.
DURABILITY: Two years in and they’ve survived my clumsiness (kicking furniture counts as a stress test, right?). Sole hasn’t detached—unlike my last thrifted pair that literally abandoned me mid-step.
THE CATCH: The zippers were stiff AF at first. Had to wrestle them like a feral raccoon. Also, the chain left weird residue. Pro tip: keep pliers handy.
BUDGET WIN: Paid like $50 instead of $200 for ‘branded’ platforms. For the price? 10/10 would impulse-buy again.
PSA: Don’t drive in these. Or do—I’m not your mom. But maybe just… don’t.
