I can't tell you how long I've been after Western-style boots like these! I think I say that for pretty much every new purchase, but seriously though, this has been a committed and long-running obsession of mine. A couple of years ago, I started noticing more and more street-style shots pop up featuring pointed-toe boots with silver hardware and the typical western-style heel, and they really stopped me in my tracks. I remember posting a picture of the Acne Pistol boots on my Instagram rather wistfully, but at £350....a girl's gotta pay her rent. I'd been on the lookout for the perfect pair ever since, but, I'm not gonna lie, I'm super picky when it comes to shoes, and I didn't quite fall head over heels with anything I saw. Then, more than 6 months ago, I saw these babies, by the brand YRU, on the ASOS website, and just knew that they were THE ONES. Typically, they were out of stock for months and months, but I kept my little hawk eye on them, and they finally came back in stock, and even better, in the sale.
When they arrived, though, my heart sunk slightly because they were incredibly tight, almost to the point that I couldn't fit them on my feet, but after a couple of weeks of wearing them in, they were so so comfy, and have now really moulded themselves to the shape of my foot, which really is a testament to the great quality of the leather. They are so wearable and adaptable, but still have the power to make any boring outfit that little bit more special!
