Get the Ugg Boots mug.An establishment which one reluctantly visits after a long indecisive search for a pub/club/restaurant/cafe. Selected not for its superiority to previously considered establishments, but as a last resort.
The term bootstrap originated in the UK. When searching for a place to each lunch, many eventually choose to eat a Boots £3.29 meal deal because they have given up searching for alternative that can be agreed upon. A highly available outlet in conjunction with rising hunger levels eventuate in people being caught in a 'boots trap'. Unfulfilled and disappointed, one wishes they picked the cafe they had encountered half an hour ago.
Although its' use traditionally refers to establishments, its' use has often been used to refer to other last resort acquisitions that are subjectively less pleasing than previously rejected (and now unavailable) alternatives. (e.g. buying a car, hooking up at a bar/party).

b. Why? There are so many good bars around that part of town.
a. Yeah I know.. but we couldn't agree on one, and we had been walking around for ages.

Get the bootser mug.The smell that is caused by the consistant wearing of an old pair of boots; usually hidden while the boots are on, but when taken off, a putrid, vomit-inducing stank is emitted. On certain occasions the bootstink is so bad that it is noticeable while the boots are still being worn.
"Did you get a whiff of Kenny's bootstink? Damn, it made me near keel over and die."
"Oh I know, man. I won't even hang out with him anymore because of it."
"Yo dude, what is that skeezy smell?"
"I think it's Katie's bootstink, she's had the same shoes for like, 5 years. I wanted to date her, until I caught a whiff of her damn feet."
