Those look like some comfy boots you wear.

The zebra boots are Dr Martens

These are mine -- but I got them at Famous Footwear for $55. Protect the tootsies, and look good, too! A friend saw them and said, "Oh, I couldn't wear those. I like cute shoes!" I reminded her that if you lose a couple of toes, there are NO shoes that will look cute anymore :wink:

my boots are molded exactly to my feet, i've worn them since i was 17. except the zippers are broken, leaving my ankles pretty vulnerable. so i've been on the market for new boots, and i love these zebra docs, but i can't find them anywhere on the internet! :( only size 5, oddly enough. and i'm more of an 8. :cry:

How much you willing to pay? You can get them in the UK:

That sure is a surprise there isn't a variety of sizes available. Must be a popular seller or limited supply.

Would have been nice with your custom seat.

Well, I found these in Australia:
http://www.wellingtonsurplus.com.au/index.php
They have a currency converter so you can check out the price, but I don't know about shipping from Australia. :shock: The UK ones Eric found may be less expensive.

It looks like they also called these and a leopard print as "hair on". Looking at a couple of descriptions came up with this so I don't know if you are looking for hairy boots or not. . . :D
"All leather, patent leather, leopard print, or synthetic zebra hair uppers."

"Cow-hair left on leather uppers, Leopard design screen-printed on hair"

The UK boots are about $150 including VAT; in US I think they are $110.

You'd be amazed at what a good shoe repair place can do. I know a few Jedi with fat calves who will attest to that.
