High boots can be scary for the newcomer.
Who’s to say you won’t just look like a soldier who’s lost the rest of his
uniform? Most designers have been thinking up a happy medium between boots and
brogues – I think they should be called ‘Broots’ – and Paul Smith is one such
designer.

These Paul
Smith broots (if I type it enough, it’ll catch on) are perfect for those
who’d like a pair of broots before they move on to a pair of boots. They’re not
a cheap investment though, costing £220 and only going up to size 11.
