those are nice, but i think you should just find a shorter pair, the longness of the boots will make your legs look short _________________ i tried to be chill but you're so hot that i melted |

those are very cute. IMO, if they're about knee-high, it should be fine. but if they're taller than that on you, then i'd suggest finding a shorter pair.  _________________

| I meant I can't afford 130+ bucks for a pair of shoes. I'll have to walk them in rain and snow so I can't spend that much on them. and i'm not sure if aldo has good quality..how can u tell ? they jacked the price so much that employees can have them at 50% off...that's why i dont think their quality is that high. |

i didnt think they were that bad, considering their suede .. i wore them yesterday and it was raining and theres def. no water marks, as long as you sprayed them with the proper protector, and they're pretty comfortable. so i think it was worth my 130 bucks but that depends on the person i guess. and a lot of stores jack up their prices its not just aldo _________________ <3eL |

| I think that Aldo is good quality. I think its probably some of the better stuff you can buy before getting into the really pricey stuff. Transit's quality is questionable but Aldo is like the next step up. |

| They are the same company but they are of lesser quality. Just like Banana Republic and Old Navy are the same company but their clothes are not really comparable in quality. |

The thing is that if you want good quality boots you are going to have to spend more money on them. You could buy cheaper boots at like payless or something, but they arent going to be good quality. |

^the american eagle brand that payless sells isn't that same American Eagle you would buy in the store. There is a difference i just cant remember exactly what that is. _________________

yes. american eagle shoes at payless are TOTALLY different from the AE store. i got confused when they came out but i found out quickly that they are so not from the AE store and there is no collaborations or anything its just a brand at payless. _________________

| Normally, that wouldn't be aloud, but because the store is called American Eagle Outfitters, the show brand at Payless is aloud to be called American Eagle. |
