"It is such a shame. I love the firm structure, height, styling, and comfort of this boot (I have it in black). Purchased in late December, after just 3-4 short wears in indoor environments, the toe of the left boot began to pucker, bubble, and peel. It was not exposed to moisture or heat. I only got 2-3 weeks of wear (1-2x per week) out of these. Again, they are great fitting, comfortable, and stylish, but they completely failed.
After several wears with the left toe peeling, the right toe has started, too, and I've accepted they are too embarassingly damaged to wear in public. I am attempting to return them to a DSW store this weekend, so hopefully the manager there recognizes the extremely poor quality and issues a refund.
Again, I would love to recommend these boots but in good faith cannot justify the price tag for getting less than 5 wears out of them, obviously!"
"As a previous review noted, the finish PEELS off. After very few wears! It is such a shame. I love the firm structure, height, styling, and comfort of this boot (I have it in black).
