The boots and jacket are from beatwear in liverpool and they are spot on with their stuff. if anyone wants any beatle clothes go there they're the best.

You should ink the Sgt Pepper album cover on your back.

Here's my Beatles tattoo, from inside the Magical Mystery Tour album sleeve. It's do for a bit of a touch up. Red ink can be a bit fussy.

How loud would you say the heels of those boots are on hard floors? I'd wear my boots all the time if they weren't so damn loud.

they're loud but they arent that bad. the suede ones are better cos theyre lighter and the sole is thinner. but all boots clomp. i dont care theyre beatle boots man wear em pround
but deff get some suede ones if ud prefer lighter ones theyre my faves

I don't mind the clomp most of the time, but if I'm going to be walking around indoors on hard floors all day I just can't do it. It ends up being way too annoyingly loud and distracting.

I've been pretty much a life-long boot wearer. They do tend to clomp no matter the style; cowboy boots, army boots, work boots, Beatle boots too, I suppose.

Can you get those boots on line? Does the shop have a web site? they're really cool.

Welcome to the RickResource Forum, Richard.

You sure can! Here's the shop website. I bought a pair of the black "Winkle Pickers" with the Cuban heel.

Here's the link: http://www.beatwear.co.uk/

Make sure you get a pair of "drainpipe" style trousers from somewhere so as to properly show off the boots when you wear them! A pair of black (or white for that Brian Jones look) 501s taken to the tailor to have the leg tapered works quite well.

When I ordered my boots, they arrived in about 3-4 days. I was quite surprised at how quickly they arrived!

Happy shopping!!!
