Love Love Love.Excellent choice for anyone that:Struggles w/ chronic edemaHas a “larger than avg” ankle circumferenceStruggles to find booties/boots that will zip closed…Has a job that req’s standing/walking for 8+ hoursI was prev working as a mstr cosmetologist (aka Hairstylist) & although I’m not currently able to work (due to other health issues) I still know what it’s like to be standing for 10-12 (+) hours for your workday w/ no true “breaks”…& I understand what it’s like to battle pain from plantar fasciitis, heel spurs, sciatica pain, lower back issues/pain, etc. If any of this applies to you…keep reading.Trust me when I say that these are perfect for day wear! please continue reading! I ordered the “wide width” as I always do (if they’re available) & upon first trying them on I noticed that they were definitely roomier than I expected they’d be. They seem to be equivalent to the “extra wide width” shoes I’ve ordered (from another brand) in the past. Which actually came as a blessing on the really cold days, because it allowed me to wear extra thick & warm socks that was never possible with any of my other shoes or boots.In addition to the roomy forefoot area, the ankle circumference is made much larger than any other “wide width” boot (of any height) that I’ve bought or tried on in the past. They are very accommodating for an individual that has a much larger ankle circumference than the “average” person.Thankfully, due to the generous fit of these booties, I am still able to wear them on the days that I’m retaining a lot of fluid. My circulatory issues & other medical conditions that I suffer from cause excessive amounts of fluid in my lower (bi-lateral) extremities. It affects from my navel downward, & most days I can’t wear my normal clothing or shoes. So these are a Godsend! On days when I can’t fit into anything else, I can slip on a maxi dress/skirt & these booties…because they STILL fit (comfortably) throughout the entire day. These are extremely comfortable and I wish they still sold this exact style. Love them!
I am on my foot for hours at work and these boots are very comfortable and fit perfect and are so cute.
I was looking for light colored boots to fit my hard-to-fit, wide feet. These fit the bill. They are nice looking, wide enough, and have a supportive arch bed. They seem as though they will promote the food health of my feet as well as enhance my wardrobe. Thank you. God bless you!
The color was a little darker than I anticipated. The shoe fit perfectly and they are comfortable and sturdy.The fit more like a cowboy boot than and ankle boot [which would be softer], but this is good for stability and balance.I am not sure how they will be cleaned and will consult a shoe repair shop in that regard.They seem like they could become scuffed, but I have not noticed it yet.They are not polished.I ordered the mushroom, but was anticipating pale taupe/lighter tan/nude color. This was more dark taupe/grey. Good aspect is they will show less dirt, if that is good.
I have very wide feet and these fit great. I wore them for 6+ hours and did have a bit of discomfort, but I have plantar fasciitis, so take my pain with a grain of salt. They look great with jeans or a dress. I love them.
I am returning the Life Stride Women's Andrea Ankle Boot because they are stiff at the top edges and rub against my ankles causing irritation. I bought the black suede. The footbed is comfortable, they are true to size, and they are very cute but I want comfort. If a thick sock is worn they may not hurt the ankles, but I planned to wear them with a dress and would not be wearing socks.
These shoes are great! They are exactly what I wanted and I was so happy with the price! They are so cute and fit perfectly! They look great with slacks and leggings! Very comfortable! I would recommend and buy again!
I have wide feet and have always gone by the saying "beauty is pain" because I would squeeze my foot into some too small boots or booties that I liked the look of too much not to wear. These actually fit my feet!!! I love that the heel isn't too high because I'm already 5'9. Would definitely recommend
