Three facts about boots:
1. Winter boots are a basic human* right. Apparently.
2. Boots also make great presents for wives, lovers and girlfriends.
3. Boots don't come cheap.

One fact about the Aldo Santucci boots I bought Em for her birthday:
1. Despite costing £110 they fell apart after eight days. That's not even eight days of wearing them. Eight days of owning them and possibly 10 hours of wearing them. That's a fail, right? £11 per hour for footwear in a credit crunch?

Aldo says of its boots: "Key elements, such as the multiple buckles and straps and the bold round toe, make these boots the ultimate casual style of the season. They have that grungey vibe we're all craving, and are super comfortable."

Al says of Aldo's boots: "Key elements, such as the soles, make these boots defective, but achieve a grungey vibe that very few people crave. The bold round toe makes them ideal for kicking Aldo's ass, should you so wish."

Cheap Aldo boots
If you're still keen to buy the missus (or heaven forbid, yourself) some Aldo boots, then don't pay full price.
Sign up to the Aldo email and get a 10% discount code.
Or find some other goon who's already bought some shoes or boots from Aldo, and get them to fill out the online survey advertised on their receipt.
Then get them to give you the receipt and the Aldo 15%-off discount code.

Just don't say I didn't warn you that Aldo boots fall apart.
