"Awesome boots!"2009-10-05

I normally never write reviews for online purchases but I was especially pleased with this one. I got the Cognac ones in 6.5 from Nordstrom's online on sale for around $120. They are a beautiful pebbled leather and look like a much more expensive boot. They are also true to size (as I normally wear a 6.5) and should be great for all calf sizes as well. I have normal to skinny calves and they are snug on the smallest buckle length with just leggings but the adjustable buckle is also great if you are wearing thicker layers, like jeans. I would actually give this 4.5 stars if I could. The only negatives with this boot is that footbed seems a little narrower than other shoes (they are quite snug on my normal width feet so if you have wide feed they might be uncomfortable), the bottom could have been better made (it is just flat and seems slippery...although putting some adhesive shoe bottom grips should do the trick), and the ankle part is a bit wide, which makes it slouchy (although that does make it easier to slip on and off instead of undoing the buckle all the time). Overall great genuine leather boot for the fall/winter at a reasonable price!

I have been looking for the perfect black boots, and I found them!
They are flattering and not too tall even for someone who is shorter.
However, the upper leather is a littler thinner than i thought (I was imagining a stiff more equestrian boot)
so it still slouched a little by the ankle.
Nonetheless, AMAZING!

I really wanted these boots after seeing a random girl on the streets wearing them, and then seeing my coworker a few days later with the same boots! They both bought the cognac color, which is the color I bought, and the boots are very comfortable, true to size, and super cute and stylish! The only reason I gave these boots four stars instead of five is because of the quality of the leather. The leather is rather thin and stiff/crumbly like brown packaging paper, not smooth and buttery. But what did you expect for the price? I would not pay more than $120 for these. In fact, I'd say these boots are really worth about $80 max. I only bought these and ignored the quality because the style is too adorable. I haven't seen the boots in black but my advice when buying boots with average-poor quality leather is to not buy black. It's much easier (in my opinion) to tell good quality leather from bad quality when it's black leather. Brown is a more casual look and more forgiving to scratches and inconsistencies.

These boots are a dream! I bought them about a month ago, have paired them with many outfits and receive compliments each and every time.
I also LOVE that the buckle at the calf can tighten or loosen the boot, I have a larger, muscular calf and can sometimes run into issues of boots being too snug on my calves. no so with these!
As for the person who has complained about the quality and had a scuffing issue, I do not agree! I've worn them to work quite a few times, lifting and arranging furniture and have yet to see a scuff or scratch.
Do yourself a favor and pick up a pair... you won't be sorry
