User Reviews
I bought these wide boots because I have one foot that is regular B width and one foot that is a C width. So hard to buy shoes on-line! I would say that these boots are about a C width but if you need wider, probably not for you. I got 8.5 which is my normal size. The boot itself has a nice quality look about it for a low heel. It is a little hard on the feet to wear for extended amounts of time so I put a thin footbed liner for a little padding and there was room for that. The toe is almond shaped but the way it is designed, the widest part of the foot has room and the toes are not squished into a too small area. Very comfortable that way. The leather is soft enough so that break in time should be minimal. All in all a good buy.
The leather looks good and they appear to be well made. They are comfortable for me to wear all day, with an arch support insert.
I ordered a black size 7 1/2 wide ankle boot. The only problem I have with the boot is where the top of the boot hits my lower leg is not wide or soft enough so it creates a groove in my skin. I love the supple black leather. The inside zipper is great and makes it easy to slip into and out of the boot. I am going to try to pad the front top of the boot so it will be more comfortable. I am not going to return it because it fits my feet and it looks beautiful.
These boots are the bomb. Love the style, heal everything. These do run a little big. I wear a size 8, which is what I ordered. With a thin sock they're slightly lose, but I live where there are 4 seasons so in the fall and winter with a heavy sock they will be perfect. Wore them several hours the first time and had no issues. I will probably put an arch support in them but they're great without. I thinking I'll order a brown pair as well. You won't be disappointed.
Well-made boot that is fairly comfortable. It does not dig into my ankles and I have thick ankles. The zipper slides smoothly and seems sturdy. Very simple but elegant styling.
First let me say, the boots are adorable and very comfortable. Aesthetically, I am very pleased. However, after wearing them two times the black color around the edge of the sole is coming off. For the money paid, I would not expect this to happen. I would have gladly paid a little more for the boot to have a true black sole and not one painted on. Disappointed.
I love that these booties are real leather and the workmanship is top quality.
The transaction started out just fine. I got my delivery in a timely manner. Unfortunately, the boots we're too narrow for my feet. I returned them within 2 days. It's been almost a month and I haven't been issued my refund. These boots weren't cheap. This is ridiculous. I will not be ordering from this particular company again. Hopefully, Amazon will get it straightened out???
