Deconstruction: RocketDog Slinger Boots

So, the blabbing yesterday about my excitement over FINALLY getting my UPS delivery is going to be expanded into a new article where I break down my purchases. Kind of pompous and capitalistic, but fuck, what do I care? I want to share my opinion on various items or objects d'art, or, you know, pretty shoes.

So I drive home like a maniac, nearly getting sideswept by a trucker and cussing out a poor old couple from Michigan (DRIVE FASTER OR GET OUT OF THE FAST LANE DAMN) on the way, race through my house, squealing when I spot the box outside the front door. Thank God no one else was there, or I would've further cemented my family's impression that I'm a hopeless dork.

I pulled the boots on right in the entryway. Oh. Oh, darlings, I cannot describe the bliss.

RocketDogs are comfy and still stylish. But it felt like I was walking in smooshy puddles of cotton candy. The heel is modest, like an inch-and-a-half or so, but it's perfect. The style is amazing, and makes it look much more expensive than it was. Slouchy, with straps wrapped around the body of the boot, buckling on the side, it is so stylish and super chic.

I ordered it a half-size above what I normally wear, and that was perfect. The fit is incredible, not tight, but snug enough to keep my foot in place, and roomy enough that my tootsies get ventilation and don't sweat. (Euwww, sweaty feet.) I'm wearing them right now, and actually feel hella fancy.

Overall, these were a great buy, and I cannot wait to show them off all over the place! Pictures to come.
