Nienna Posted July 20, 2011 Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 Does anyone know of good sites to find Winklepicker type boots that are NOT cheap, fake leather, or have stupid bat buckles? (I have already looked at Pennangalon). I'm looking for a nice quality pair, with a good point to the toe and preferably with alot of straps and buckles that are not bats, or coffins, or other cliched things. LOL It's harder than you;d think it would be! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nienna Posted July 20, 2011 Author Report Share Posted July 20, 2011 I found that some of the more vintage styled western boots have alot the same look, with nice long points, but it's not the same shape and they have heels. they can look gothy with pants, but I want that more gradual point that the traditional winklepickers have. I should have bought them years ago when it was alittle easier to find them. Good question 'cause I eventually wanna get a pair myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Troy Spiral (13) Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Seems like there are so many different kinds, its hard for me to tell what is "cheap". But since the popularity of the style is on the rise among the latino community (of which is huge in the US) i have to imagine just about anything you'd want is available.. Just walk down the street in Mexican town on a friday night and you'll trip over someone wearing some really expensive looking ones at some point (although they tend to be more like "cowboy boots" made of snakeskin than the 3 buckle euro-style , but there are plenty of them around too) Bat buckles? Is that a fashion term or do you mean actual buckles that look like bats? Random Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DJDeadbeat Posted July 21, 2011 Report Share Posted July 21, 2011 Southwest Detroit has a lot winklepicker-esque shoes in plenty of shops, as mentioned. Incognito in Royal Oak. Hot Topic's sale section last I checked, Showtime Clothing in Detroit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
