I dunno. Not something I would get for me- but I don't really like ostrich boots. Had a pair once and sold them on eBay after a while. The pair you are talking about is something I have seen advertised in Texas Monthly (Capitol Saddlery, right?) before- and they are pretty sharp.

If you have the money handy- go for it. You know you are going to come to games for the rest of your life like any real Longhorn- so you can use them.

I agree, I plan on going to football games until I am physically unable to. I also plan on going downtown a lot more. I think I'll go get fitted for them tomorrow. I can always get my dress boots next semester. If anything else, I can pass these boots down to my son (hopefully I have one and he wears the same shoe size as I do). I'm not too worried about what school he'll go to

Maybe passing footware down is a little gross. :P

I would say passing down like tennis shoes are gross, but boots are okay. My dad passed down a pair of boots to me.

What does everybody think of these guys? I'm not the biggest fan of the square toe, but I think they look decent and cost half the price of the other boots I was looking at.

I believe they were discussing boots which had Longhorns symbols on it.

Boys talking about ugly shoes is really funny.

They're really no worse than half of the shoes posted in that "let's talk about cute shoes" thread.

Yes but I don't participate in that thread. Myself, I have a soft spot for a good pair of sneakers/running shoes. Not the grandpa NB 991s. I'm currently wearing a pair of Saucony's that I love.
*note: I love New Balance. Just not grandpa New Balance.

ZING!

I'm much more of a handbag snob than a shoe snob, but holy hell there are some fugly-ass shoes on GC these days. I just took a look at the "cute shoes" thread, and I'm horrified.
