The under $55.00 plain zip boot

Banana Blues Ferrari Casual Ankle Boot – $73.92 $51.98 (reg. $129.95)

The view from Zappos

Huge credit to Blake, (see below) for catching an even lower price through Amazon…

Full disclosure.  I’ve got zero experience with Banana Blues footwear.  And if you do have experience, do us all a favor and leave your thoughts in the comments section below.  Because right now these look like a steal.

Boots are a lot like loafers.  Meaning designers can’t seem to make a plain pair.  They throw stitching in, embellishments, even ugly as all hell metal jewelry looking things.  So finding a pair of plain, slim rounded toe boots is a rarity.

A quick search found the exact same pair for $30 more at the Endless sister site Zappos.  If you head over there you can get a few different angles which show the exact same thing:  a great looking zip up boot.

Endless.com gets you get the bargain price plus free two day shipping.

Amazon on the other hand (see Blake’s comment below) has em’ for $50…

Amazon. Big (biggest?) haystack, but a few “style” needles can be found.

    It appears Amazon has the exact same boot for $51.98. making this even more of a steal. If you’re a prime member as well, you’ll score the same free two day shipping that endless provides by default.

    It doesn’t look like many are left in stock and being under the same ownership, endless, amazon, and zappos all appear to share the same stock numbers as I just ordered a pair from Amazon and the stock number went down on each site in real-time. Due to this, I wouldn’t delay on this one.

    Anyways, this looks like a great find. Thanks, Joe (Awesome site, by the way – I read it daily).

    Great find! I bought the J. Shoes Mojave Desert Boots in black from AE when they were on sale, but i’m thinking of taking them back and getting these instead. Is that a good move?
