When I first laid eyes on the Prada hip waders (which were featured on their FW09 runways), I was a bit terrified. By the time Jeffrey Campbell released the Obscene boot ($269), I had begun to warm – but the question still remained: would I ever see these worn live?
For all of Vancouver’s rain, I highly doubt many could bear the rubber and glue stares of almost fearful ooglers.
These boots are difficult to find at best, and when they appear (and disappear) I wonder where they’re going and who’s actually wearing them.
It’s not for lack of quality; these boots are fully leather, include a belt and straps for attachment. The shafts of the boot are studded up the leg for detail, and there is a very slight 1.5″ heel to cap things off.
Good news leather hip wader lovers – demiCouture has an exclusive 20% off coupon at AKIRA Chicago, who happens to have sixes 6 – 10 in stock right freaking now. Use code “DEMI20” at the checkout, and you get a discount on anything in the online shop. That would mean these boots would be $215!
I don’t know about you, but I’m ready for the Obscene.
