Detailed Review
When it comes to winter footwear, the Trotters Women's Lace Up Boots stand out for their blend of comfort and style. Designed specifically for colder days, these boots offer excellent insulation thanks to their padded knit collar and plush faux fur lining. This means you can step outside knowing your feet will stay warm, which is critical during harsh winters.
The ease of getting these boots on and off is one of their strong selling points, thanks to the inside zipper. You won't have to struggle with laces, making them ideal for quick outings or layered outfits where time is of the essence.
However, despite their stylish appearance and functionality, potential buyers should be aware of their limitations regarding water exposure. These boots are meant to withstand light moisture but should not be worn in heavy rain or puddles as they are not fully waterproof.
The narrow sizing might pose a challenge for those with wider feet, so it's advisable to try them on first if possible. Additionally, while the synthetic outsole keeps the boot lightweight, it lacks some traction on slick surfaces, which could be a concern during inclement weather.

User Reviews
I have big feet, so finding shoes that are cute, comfortable, and practical in my size is the equivalent of finding a unicorn. I'm so happy I went with these!
These boots are awesome. Look great, very comfy, easy to care for (wipe clean, use a vinyl conditioner).
I wear a smidge bigger than size 11.5. I buy size 12 shoes even though they fit a little loose. However these boots fit great and required no breaking in time. I loved them so much I bought a pair in black as well.
Very comfortable shoes, they look and feel great. I wear them all the time. The only thing I don’t like is that they are so easily damaged. The slightest mis-step, will scratch-up the leather SO EASILY
everyday wear.
I really like the way the boots fit and look. They have good support in them.
This is a great boot! Every time I wear these boots, people ask me where I got them. They are stylish and comfortable. If you need extra wide boots but don't want them to look extra wide--these are perfect. If you normally wear a 6.5WW you can get a half size smaller and they will fit perfectly. This is my second pair and I have the 6.5 and they are very loose but work well if I wear extra thick thermal socks or double up on socks. This time I got the size 6 and they fit perfectly with just one pair of boot socks. I spent twice the price on a pair of Clarks and these Trotters fit and feel better. Definitely recommend Trotters especially if you are looking for wide shoes that are stylish too!
