i think if you want them burberry but not too much stick with the grey they both are nice I think its just a matter of preference

The gray one is nice and unique. It's personal preference.

bextasy · Apr 5th, 2009, 03:54 PM

i like the ones you bought. they still look "burberry"

Grey is nice.

grey

The grey plaid print ones are definitely more unique, but to be honest, personally, I would prefer the originals- the other ones you mentioned. But mainly because they might serve more of a multipurpose, where they would match with more arrangments of colors and outfits. They just seem to possess that color which is more versatile, KWIM?

But not to take anything away from your lovely new rainboots! They're fab, and you deserve to enjoy em- so splash through those puddles shamelessly!

I suppose the choice is really a matter of preference, and that isn't really something that someone else can advise to you, as your taste is uniquely your own.

The grey looks so chic - understated class all the way... good choice!

vhsethan · Apr 6th, 2009, 12:20 PM

Keep the grey! I had this same problem with Coach rainboots; I thought the brown would be most versatile but it isn't - I wish I would've had the black/grey ones because it seems like you could wear them with anything! :-)

I like both to be honest!......but I'm leaning towards the grey boots

.......I have the patchwork rainboots and LOVE them, I kinda like off beat things

I like the grey, theyre still Burberry but understated and something different and go with tons. Theyre way cute and Ill be sure to perform a rain dance so you can enjoy them!
