Designer Rain Boots - Thoughts?

[TheSoCalledPrep]

Look what I found on Saks:

Pucci's doing the dumb rain boots trend, too. Kind of a cute choice, considering their whimsy, colorful prints.

But here's the kicker:

$100

So, that just about guarantees that we'll be seeing them quite alot in the coming monthes.

 

[Theory]

Didn't Pucci do these last season as well?

They were around the same price and pretty popular as well.

I almost want to ask the question:


Why so cheap?

Supposedly so they can sell 400,000,000 of them.

 

[TheSoCalledPrep]

Oh gosh... I had no idea.

Make them go away.

Probably so cheap because they're made of rubber.

At first glance I thought them foul, but if you wore them with understated clothing, they could look pretty cool.

I'd give them a chance, but I will not buy them..

nice colorful boots! i like the design but, i dont know if i would wear them. hmmm

 

[softgrey]

not my favorite pucci print...

 

[As You Like It]

Hehehehe, I like them. I wouldn't wear them, and certainly not buy them, but heeee! So colorful and silly. LURRRRVE. I wonder if they have any other patterns and colors?

i love bright colors too..but i hate rainboots...to tacky IMO

 

[chocsta]

Marc Jacobs also has some of these rubber wellingtons for fall.... in bright purple!

I guess you could call it a "trend"

Personally, I think they're more than a little cheesey, but hey....

 

[Spike413]

Cute, don't love all of the colors together, and rainboots are a little bit "Barney Generation" for me, but at least they're not rediculously overpriced.

jcrew's got several out as well, i believe, for under a hundred

I'm oddly fond of the print, but I just could never wear a pair of rain boots.

i have been seeing these for over a year now. i guess Saks decided to get in on it. there are plenty of colors and prints available by Pucci. I think netaporter.com may have some.

id wear them...if it was raining, which is when i usually wear my rainboots. haha
