As of now I have only tried these on once. These fit me but are very snug in the middle so hopefully they will loosen up some as I wear them. They don’t look as distressed as in the advertised pictures. Overall a nice good quality boot though
These boots are remarkably comfortable and look great. I wear a 10.5 wide and have never had a 10.5 that was too wide. These are a perfect fit. They seem very well made. Excellent value. Would definitely recommend.
I like the way these boots look, and they're a good alternative to low-top brown shoes for cold weather. The soles are supportive and comfortable, but they make an annoying clicking sound as I walk, as if something in the glued-together layers of cushioning keeps constantly popping apart and then sticking back together... I'm hoping this will stop once they're worn in better.
Best boots. Color is awesome. I get plenty of compliments. Worth every penny.
Great looking and fitting boot, it does have a slightly higher heel than more traditional boots but it’s an easy adjustment to get use to. This is a great all around boot and fits true to size and width.
Ended up sizing down by half for my brother, and it fit perfectly. He wears them all the time and loves how comfy they are.
I bought these boots for my son as a Christmas present, and he LOVES them. He says they are extremely comfortable, and they look really nice. So far, they are wearing well... he wears them every day!
Brand new but showed up with scuffs and creased wear it appears to have been worn.
