Footwear requirement question
@hope i would probably go for something that covers higher up. those look like, while leather/suede, they aren't going to give you much in the way of protecting that part of your ankle. maybe see if you can pick up a pair of hiking or work boots second-hand that go up a little higher and have a bit more padding and sturdiness around the ankle.
also stains are a real sunnovagun to get out of suede like that, lol
