I'm a big fan of Sam Edelman's shoes - I've admired his stuff from way back in the Sam & Libby days. (I think I wore a pair to my prom, or such.) His newest stuff, especially his boots, are edgy yet classic, sleek and sexy yet with a touch of masculine. (My own fave pair are a set of military inspired knee-highs!) So these tawny boots with the quilted uppers, strong sillouette and cut-out ending with a neat tie are just up my alley. I'm surprised to find them at Urban Outfitters, but of course they carry a slightly bigger price tag - US$189 for these things. Rubber sold for lots of traction, very sturdy, tough leather for long lasting use.
