 Ok so these look awful but how can pink walking boots look so bad when some of us are wearing pink rockboots which look well, a little silly but acceptable?
|

 Pink, that won't show the mud/dirt/crap then.
|
|
 Ewwwwwwww!!!!!!!
Anyone who knows me will know EXACTLY what I think of these.
An abomination. A total abomination!!!!!
<feeling decidedly queasy at the sight of them>

 Climbers have always had a perchant for pink, Ben, think 'Think Pink' the manufacturer.
Walkers are far more conservative.
Apart from the red socks/gaiters/jackets worn by people who think that navy blue is a bit bright/extreme in town. Why red? WHY RED??
|
|
Why red indeed. What on earth is wrong with black?? :-P
|
|
Ex-piggin-zactly!
|
|
Just look at me in me forum pic----->>>>
All black, even me ruccy :)
|
|
 Yuck, yuck, yuck.
Never in a million years would I wear something as horrible as these.
Can you imagine what they'd look like after a day on the fells?!?!?

I think sometime back in Jan/Feb I posted a rant about how "women's cut" clothes tend to come in pastels to make us all look like marshmallows, whereas the men get sensible olives and blacks.
Most manufacturers since then have started doing more black for women, and I cheered up immensely.
This has set progress back by about 20 years!

 Take them up on Bleaklow for half an hour and they'd soon be a pleasant brown "peaty" colour... much like my Lowa's....
|
|
Hooray! Fantastic!! At last pink booties. Hayley have you seen them? Must get myself a pair.
|
|
 Try a pair of Scarpa Cumbre.
A very fetching combination of red and yellow. Ideal for finding people stuck headfirst in snow...
|
|
Darren, you truly ARE the Evil One.
Stop trying to corrupt the board with tales of multicoloured woe!
<shudder>

Yes Carolyn, I think they will look lovely on you. I think you should rush out this weekend and buy some. Just think how nice they will go with that lovely pink fleece of yours - the one that I won't let you wear when you go out on the fells with me.
Of course, if you buy the pink boots, you won't be needing your Soloman boots anymore. I don't mind buying them off you. I'm sure we can come to some arrangements.
|
|
Yes I think they would look lovely with my pink fleece, which I am wearing at the moment as it happens. Na na- na na!
But you get your filthy hands of my Salomon boots miss. I am a woman of substance-I could have more than one pair of boots. Actually come to think of it I already have.
|
|
But Carolyn would you really want to put those horrible blue Salomon boots back on your feet again after wearing lovely pink ones?
Look, I'll do you a favour and take the other boots off your hands for £20. How does that sound?
Oh OK then, £30. That's my final offer.
Second thoughts, £35?
You know it makes sense.
|
|
Look I'm warning you...
get your hands off my Salomons!!!!
|
|
Well Carolyn, that's only leaves me one option and that is for me to steal your Solomon's. So watch out next time I do a walk with you, especially if I give you a lift in my car.
I did try a pair of Solomon Pro Trek's on in Cotswold in Keswick over the weekend, but at £90 it makes economical sense for me to nick your's instead.
Or - you could swap your boots for mine. Afterall, they're the same size and I've hardly worn mine!!!! (hangs head in shame at such a blatent lie)

 ME sometimes go a bit colourful with their samples - found some raspberry-coloured (mens') freestyle pants in Magic Mountain earlier this year, but sadly not in my size.
I'm fed up with sh!t coloured clothing anyway, so I don't know what all you women are moaning about.
|
|
Sh!t colours? What's wrong with you? If your navy, grey and black clothes are the same colour as your sh!t then you need to see a doctor
;o)
