Great all purpose shoe
" I wear these for fitness walking and they have been great so far. No breaking in period for me. I have average, medium width, neutral pronation feet so luckily, it doesn't take much to make my feet happy. I do however, walk 25+ miles a week and although I've only worn them for a few days, I do believe they will hold up well. Love the neutral color too.

Cute shoes - wish they had more colors available!
" I wore these out for dinner & drinks in the city other night. I bought the yellow (more like mustard yellow) in my normal size, 6.5 and they fit perfectly. With the front platform, it looks higher than it actually is so I was quite comfortable walking a few blocks and standing around in a bar for a bit. Looks a bit heavier than it actually is and would consider it a lightweight shoe. Easy on/off with the front tie which I think is so adorable. But not so easy that you feel you can walk right out of them. My only wish is that this shoe is available in other colors because I'd definitely buy another! Grab em while you can girls - you won't be disappointed!

Comfy & cute!
" I wore these out for dinner & drinks in the city other night. I bought the blue ones in my normal size, 6.5 and they fit perfectly. With the front platform, it looks higher than it actually is so it was quite comfortable walking a few blocks and standing around in a bar for a bit. The color was more like a denim blue color and the heel is real cork - not the fake stuff - so it is a lightweight sandal. Easy on/off too with the back zipper and elastic front. But not so easy that you feel you can walk right out of them. I'd get the black if they had them in my size, but sadly no.

Tall tall boots
" I bought these boots in the brown/caramel and was so excited to receive them as they did not sell them in my local store. When I did receive them, I was a little disappointed. I know they aren't leather, but faux leather has come a long way and I was hopeful. Unfortunately, these could never be mistaken for leather, and I didn't expect them to look so plasticy. The fit was a bit off too - it is a very tall boot and came above the bend at the back of the knee. Also, it kind of bagged at the ankles. I suppose you could always tighten/loosen the lacing to fit better, but I really couldn't be bothered. Thank god it has an inside zipper! The icing on the cake is when I asked husband to look at them and he thought I was showing him part of my halloween costume. These went back.

Tight for Wide Calf
" Being a long-distance runner, I have muscular calves. I bought these being very happy about the wide-calf option. Unfortunately, when I zipped them up there was a struggle in the widest area of the calf. I did manage to zip them up completely but its' tight. Very tight. Tight enough that I'm afraid that the zipper will bust. I wore them around the house a little to see if they would stretch a little, thought that maybe they did but when I put them on later, I still had the same problems getting the zipper up. Maybe my leg was numb? The weirdest part is that the widest part of the boot shaft is the very top of the boot only - not so much of the shaft. In my case there is at least a 2" gap between the top of the boot and my leg right below the knee, yet vice-tight at the calf. Wish the give would be generous in the actual calf area - not the bottom of the knee. Not sure if I'm gonna keep these.....

Great looking
" Bought these for my boyfriend as a Christmas present. He's usually hard to buy for - picky and values comfort over looks. Luckily, these were both comfortable and good looking. Distressed, but not so much they look cheesy. Industrial styling but not too much that they looked like an old skating shoe. Just the right vintage yet modern look.
Was really looking for a black color but they only had this tobacco brown color and had they not been so attractive, I would of passed. But they were so nice I got them anyway and just bought him more clothes to match.
Now, only if they would make it in another color.... "

Very comfy - no break in required!
" Bought these for BF in the white/yellow combo. He's 6ft, 170lbs and says he loves these. Plenty of support while being cushiony for a tough P90X workout. He's usually a New Balance fan, but says these are just as good. Much better priced too.

Nicely padded footbed
" I wore this out Saturday night downtown for some bar-hopping/clubbing. Surprisingly comfortable for the heel height! The suede is soft on the ankles and the laces let you tighten/loosen to what you need. Even better is the zip side to get you in & out of them quickly. I thought the wood heel would be very stiff but they have a slightly padded footbed and/or a soft traction sole that makes each step on the concrete not so jarring. All in all, I'm quite happy.
Great shoe & I'm buying them in another color! "

Fun - mid-height boot
" While I can't say that these boots were made for some serious walking/shopping, its great for casual outings. I really like this boot, its not too tall and not too short (both the heel height and shaft height) and perfect for what I was looking for.
I bought the grey option which is a dark, cool grey and works well as a neutral so it is very versatile. It is made of some sort of faux leather, but with the distressed finish it looks like it could be real leather. Better still because you don't have to worry about getting a spot of rain/mud on them.

3rd time buying this same, exact shoe!
" I'm a long distance walker/runner and do about 20-25 miles a week. I usually have 2-3 pairs of athletic (new balance, saucony, nike) shoes that I rotate during the week and these shoes are the most comfortable & most used out of all of them. I am on my second exact pair of these shoes and just noticed that they are starting to wear down (after almost 500 miles!), so time to buy another pair. So glad that they are still making them.
If you are looking for a comfy, supremely cushioned shoe that you can walk/stand for hours on - this is the one. Great right out of the box with no break-in period needed.
Also, they do run a bit on the wide side - the medium width is similar to New Balance's wide width. "

Glitzy Glam
" I got these in my usual size and although they are a bit big in the back of the heel & arch they are so fabulous I'll keep them anyway. Nothing a shoe cushion shouldn't fix anyway. I thought that the toe strap was going to cut off my pinky toes (I have short toes) but alas - I think these will be fine. Also, I am petite (5'2") and these didn't bulk up my legs. Highly recommend - but you may just want to consider getting a 1/2 size smaller for a snugger fit.

My favorite everyday boot
" I love this boot! It goes great with leggings or skinny jeans. The lower heel height & slight platform in the front make it very comfortable. I've worn them all day & for a night out on the town with no problems. Also, the toe box is roomy enough for a good pair of socks. I get lots of compliments every time I wear them. Love them so much I bought them in both the black & the pewter.
