Versatile boot
" Received the box while I was at work. I have tiny tiny little calves and ankles, but these boots worked with them. And I had another colleague try them on (she has larger ankles than mine), and they looked great on her too. They are very comfortable, but the only problem is, slightly heavy. I imagine I'd get tired walking in these for too long, but I don't forsee much in terms of discomfort from walking in these too long. Overall, keeping, enjoying and wearing frequently.

Comfy but not cute
" I had to return these shoes. They were quite comfortable when I tried them on. However, the ankle was much wider than I expected it to be, it doesn't look as cute in person, and it was a bit heavy. I'm 5'3, about 100 lbs or so, but my legs are much skinnier than my foot size (6.5-7 size shoes, but my ankle and calf circumference is probably for someone with size 5-6 feet). These made me look like my legs were coming out of cheap boats. And even that aside, I stopped at brunch with a girlfriend on my way to make the return, and she opened the box and asked "Omg, why did you buy these? They look so cheap" =( Sad.

Lightweight, easy carry-all
" Be sure to look at the picture of the mannequin holding the bag; it's larger than I expected. However, I do like the bag for it's chic simplicity. Very lightweight, easy to use. Don't be mistaken though; it doesn't look like real leather in person at all.

Gift for boyfriend
" Bought as a gift for boyfriend - he was looking for a versatile summer/spring shoe. Usually he's a 10.5, but in this case, I had to return and repurchase for a size 10 -- runs long. Nevertheless, he found the shoe very comfortable and easy wear. No breaking in period. Note: beige color is actually darker than pictured.

Not what I expected
" The picture makes it look like the shoes don't cover that much of the arch/front. It actually does. Also, the canvas is rather stiff (as would be expected). While it's just as cute in person as in the picture, I was hoping that the top wouldn't conceal so much of the foot -- the whole "lengthen the leg" thing that pumps do didn't quite happen.

Tiny Calves
" I have tiny calves. I usually must try on every boot before buying them. These fit. This should explain alot about the size of the neck of the boot. Otherwise, super comfortable. Not so sturdy you feel like a duck when you walk, but not so loose that they fall around your ankles.

" Comfortable shoes, but takes some breaking in. The bottom of the strap against the shoe starts out a little (emphasis on little) abrasive. The strap is stiff, but wears in. Otherwise, the shoes are very comfortable.

Comfort and Style
" Hugely comfortable boots - needed no breaking in. Being of a slightly goth persuasion, these shoes fit into my wardrobe perfectly, and don't make feet feel tired after a full day of walking. Slightly warm for summer boots, however.

Needs no breaking in
" Bought the shoes as a gift for my boyfriend. He found them very comfortable immediately; needed no breaking in. Soft leather and sturdy. They've been in heavy circulation on NY streets and parks for about two months now, and faring very favorable.
