Fumble boots are boots that cause fumbling, making them quite undesirable to wear. Every 1d20 turns, you will be paralysed for 2 turns, and petrified if wielding a cockatrice corpse. A ring of free action does not counter this.[1]

They have the same price as Levitation boots, which are also usually generated cursed. The best way to distinguish them is by weight: levitation weighs 5 units less (same as 1 scroll).

Wearing cursed fumble boots counts as minor trouble.[2]
