Crochet Boots Are A Winter Must-Have!

LIVS The Classic Tall Crochet BootYes, it’s really time to start thinking about winter. It’s already cold enough to wear boots, but we’re especially partial to crochet boots. (Yah, Ugg boots aren’t the only boots we like!)

LIVS are THE hottest crochet boots around. They were big for winter 2008 and they’re going to stick around for winter 2009.

Not only are they the hottest crochet boots around, they are THE original crochet boots. (And they’re washable too!) Apparently not many people know that, including Uggs. And as much as we like the Ugg Classic Tall Boots, they really lost points with us when they stole the LIVS design and made their own crochet boots. Yes, we hate them for that.

You may recall, last year we told you how Uggs ripped off the crochet boot design and started selling them like hotcakes. Check out our Exclusive Interview With The Creator of LIVS, Diana FitzGerald for the full story.

Okay so here’s the deal, you can get the LIVS The Classic Tall Crochet Boot on Tobi.com for $120.00. We also like the LIVS Alex Cardigan Boot for $132.00.

If you want crochet boots for a little less cash, here are a few knock-offs that’ll fit your pre-christmas budget:


Alloy Sweater Boot

$46.50
Available at: Alloy.comicon

First, we’ll head over to Alloy. A teenager’s shopping heaven, we know, but the deals are too good to pass up. You can get the Tall Sweater Boot that folds down for about $50.

Or you can zoom over to Delia’s (their sister site) and get the sherpa-lined Mckenna Sweater Booticon for $69.50. Or get the Ava Crochet Booticon on sale for only $29.99!

I even found a really funky pair with pom pom tassels! They are made by Groove and the style is called “Rejoice”! I think you’ll be rejoicing that you have the guts to wear these boots! lol

You can also get a pair of Steve Madden Magii Sweater Boots on Zappos.com for $59.95. And remember you get Free Shipping BOTH ways on Shoes at Zappos.com!

You can also get the button sweater boots on gojane.com for $25.99 or without the buttons for $22.99.

Go Jane also has some cool cable knit sweater boots that are like an Ugg/Livs hybrid for only $17.99. Now that’s a good deal for a pair of boots!

    Jill here, checking in remotely from Vegas where there is some heavy duty shopping going on girls – and I am loving it!

    I came across an ADORABLE pair made by Groove as well at Urban Outfitters today… they came in a kelly green color that was so fun and current! Unfortunately, I don’t see them offered at their online store… so check out your local Urban Outfitters!

    LOVE the crocheted boot! And don’t be afraid to be bold in color choice! Winter only comes once a year – and we need something uplifting to get us through! :)

    I’m sorry, I’m still not a fan of the LIVS. They’re too expensive. At least the Uggs added sheepskin to make them comfy – a definite upgrade. A “padded insole” just isn’t the same. If I want to wear this look, I’ll definitely go for one of the cheaper versions. The ones with the buttons are cute and much more reasonably priced. Out of curiosity, how do the LIVS people feel about all of these other inexpensive versions? Do they feel they ripped them off as well?

    Wow, I love you, Fashionable Housewife! I’ve been wanting these boots since last fall, and thanks to you, I know where to go to find cheaper versions. Thanks so much, and stay ever so fashionable.
