Lugz Womens Grotto II Fashion Boot, Black/Charcoal, 6.5 US Review

I LOVE these boots so much. I ordered a size 6, which I usually wouldn't, but size 5 is too small and can squeeze my toes and plus, these I could wear with thick socks. I wore them around to break them in, but I didn't even need to do that. I chose the all black boot, it has a slightly mesh design to the boot with some faux leather/pleather material around the ankle part of it and adds to the look. These are Lugz, I don't know if that matters to you or not, it doesn't to me.So I have tiny feet, I can fit into children's shoes, seriously, it's a problem looking for shoes for me. All the time. So I wore the boots out with both thin, ankle socks and a thicker pair of socks. With the thinner socks, the boot did not rub my skin or chafe it as some boots have done before. The thicker socks did make walking around as I didn't feel as if my foot was sliding, this was a slight case with the thinner socks, but not enough to hurt. I ran around and did some errands, literally did some exercises just to test it out. The boot is quite hard around where the toes are, it is not a steel toed boot, but it is hard enough that it should provide some protection if a heavy object (+10 lbs) falls on your feet, but I do not recommend testing this out, just my thoughts.The shoe's soles have a great grip. I used to run around in snow boots all the time and they were built to not slip, these boots feel the exact same way, so I happy with that. My family members cannot tell they are hiking boots. The boots are light, which, I don't know how to compare that to any other thing, so take that with a grain of salt. I also love that it adds an extra 2 inches to my height, it's a boot, it's thick on the bottom and the inside sole is also very soft and comfortable. Overall, I am pretty sure I am going to order another pair. I hate the way that other hiking boots look, I think they are aesthetically not pleasing, plus, all black shoes go with everything. I do appreciate that this boot comes in other colors too! Why can't other hiking boots come looking like this?My family thinks that this is not a real hiking boot, but from all my walking and testing, so far, it holds up. You want a couple of things in hiking boots, which is durability, ankle protection and sole grip, which this shoe checks all of those things for me. If I have to do another review because it failed me in some way, I will be back to write a review, however, I am super happy and in love. If you don't see another review then please take that as me being very pleased with my purchase.

I wore them for my 30th year class reunion. They're true to size and comfortable. I love them

I only just got these a week ago and I've worn them every day for work, which is very physical, so I can't rate long term durability just yet but so far, so good. These shoes are really comfortable and fit well. The color is my favorite shade of red, they're beautiful and I get a lot of compliments on them. Honestly, I'm a huge Final Fantasy fan so I saw these and they reminded me of Tifa Lockhart's boots, and I fell in love with them, so I had to have them. I really like that there's an option to pay $9 a month because while I really needed new shoes(my old pair fell apart on a rainy day, so that was fun ), money is tight right now, so this was the only way I'd be able to get some new shoes. Thought I'd point that out un case anyone else who's struggling with money has a need and might be skeptical of the payment plan option listen. It's not a credit check thing or anything, just paying a few bucks a month till they're paid off completely and the shoes aren't super pricey so it won't take long either. Anyway these are my new favorite shows, and not just because they're currently my only pair.

Oh my gosh! Got the bright fusia for my birthday and loved them so much I got the purple ones too! These are so very comfortable and fun. The only small thing I don’t really like is they are not smooth like leather but have a material/sneaker like finish. They are a stiff boot and hold their shape perfectly so idk why they’re like that. But it doesn’t bother me. I’ve received lots of complements and comments like, “Hey! Your shoes match your shirt!” Lol. Probs gonna do the red too. :)

Love these get compliments every time I wear them. Have the purple too.

I love these boots! I bought them in purple a few years ago and decided I needed them in pink. lolI get compliments on them everywhere I go, want to know where I got them, take pictures so they can order them.I have arthritis in my feet and bought a 1/2 size larger than I normally wear. They tend to be on the wide side and was perfect to protect my feet!

Not exactly what I was looking for but turned out to be a great choice! (Was trying to replace an old beloved pair of boots which were red leather type w black soles and laces - and I ALWAYS got compliments on even from strangers.) After swapping out the red laces on these for black ones, felt it was a good compromise and I’m getting compliments on these too!!I did waterproof them and they did look a bit darker but overall still have the bright red tone I wanted.Ordered my regular size of 6 but they seemed a tad small so reordered a half size larger and they were perfect! (Even when wearing two pairs of socks and a cushioned insert!)Just a heads up…if you’re wearing these when you go through airport security TSA Pre, you may have to remove them because of all the metal on them (in one airport I did have to but not in another airport (!?)

I wanted to love these boots so much but they were just not for MY feet. The material was rigid and not comfortable when I walked in them. Even if I were to exchange them for one size larger, they would not have been comfortable. Otherwise, very well made, great RED color, lightweight.
