Take a good look at this picture from Hermes’ Fall Ready-to-Wear collection. Sure, it looks like some leather pants and some boots, but look closer: Those are pant boots — pants with built-in shoes. Of course, they’re from Hermès, so they’re prohibitively expensive, but it’s only a matter of time before this idea trickles down to mass fashion. I mean, we’ve already imagineered Sheggings, right? The pant boot, or “poot,” does come with some complications. Namely, how do you alter it if you’re short? And what do you do if one of the boot heels breaks while you’re wearing it? Is it poots off? So tell us — would you wear them?
