I know we're all always on the hunt for the perfect playa boot, so the topic comes up every year. Thought it might be helpful to have past threads in one place so the good advice isn't lost. :) They're in no particular order. If you don't want to wade through them all you can just skim them for links. Please feel free to add any I have missed.

Can you post this over in the BM virgins 2007 tribe? It's a good time to order boots, break them in and wear them in the summer heat.

Re: The Ultimate Playa Boot Guide
Sun, May 3, 2009 - 6:00 PMI have been looking for a new pair of boots. I'm debating splurging on some Masai ones...they look good, and if it could help me walk without back pain, huzzah.
I know exactly what I want, I just can't find them. Well, I did once and got outbid. Argh. Thanks for all the links. I will definately be looking at each of them.
Lots that I like, are heavily lined, which doesn't work for me. -

Re: The Ultimate Playa Boot Guide
Sun, June 14, 2009 - 3:55 PMmargot - the only time i saw them in black was many years ago. pretty sure these are totally out of stock. what's left of them is fairly random. they are so comfortable that i've gotten over not having them in black. also they blend in well with the playa!
