Comfy for wide foot, but heavy

" I'll be returning these because they're very heavy to wear and when I test-wore them around my house for a few hours, my feet and legs were getting very tired. However, depending on your build, these may be great for you. Here are more details.

Pros: Very cute. My foot is wide in the front and narrow in the heel, and these fit comfortably in the front of my foot, no pinching. My heels did swim around inside them, which may have contributed to the feeling that I'm lugging these heavy boots around. In my young adulthood I wore a size 7 but now wear a size 8 due to the wideness of the front of my feet. I bought these in an 8. I feel like a 7 would be too small. They seem to be very well made, and very sturdy.

Cons: They have laces but no zipper, so you're lacing up and lacing down every time you put them on and take them off. The gusseting of the tongue under the laces stops before the fur at the top, so you might get some snow slipping in there. On me, these boots became too heavy to walk around in. I'm 5'8" with skinny legs, I don't have a lot of strength to carry these around, but if you are stronger than me, and want a heavy-duty boot, these may be just fine for you.

I did not test these outside in cold weather or in snow. "

Nice Boot, Just Not for Me

" I'm came close to keeping these, they were just pinching a little on one foot. I'm hard to fit because my feet are wide in front, narrow in the heel. I wore a size 7 for most of my adult life, but had to start wear 8 as I got older and I get my feet got wider.

I bought these in an 8. The size seemed good, and I think if I took a bigger size, they would be too big.

Pros: Lightweight, easy to walk in. Very cute, and seem like they would be very warm, although I never had the chance to test them.

Cons: They pinched the left side of my left foot in the front. I wore them around the house for a couple of hours just to make sure. They never became more comfortable.

Oh, also, another review mentioned that you can't completely unlace them at the top, that is true. I thought maybe I could loosen the pinching by loosening the laces, but that was hard to do because of the way it's designed. The laces don't come apart at the top.

So all in all, if you like the way these look and you have different size issues than I do, you might want to try them. "
