I really love this little bootie. The cushioning on the inside feels like an egg crate mattress. I don't normally wear a heel quite so tall but it works for me at work and I stand all day.

Usually I don't like this high of a heel but they are still easy to walk in and comfy. The V in front is rather odd looking but for under jeans, fine and you don't get that front rub. Like that the toe is more pointed then round. I have a narrow foot but stuck with the medium and have plenty of toe room. The leather does mark but they just keep looking better!

I really like these little boots. Soft leather, soft insoles, flexible soles, cushiony (is that a word?) feel when you walk. Heel isn't too high - or at least doesn't feel high, maybe it's just a nicely balanced shoe. The little "V" at the front makes your legs look good. The color is a dark greyish-blacky brown, definitely not true black, but looks great with everything. Maybe a bit narrow for a really wide foot, but there is a lot of give in the leather. I'm a medium width size 8 and they're not loose-fitting. At first I even thought they might be a half-size small, but they're the right length - I think I'm just used to clogs and more clunky, loose footwear. These make my feet look so petite! They're really comfortable, great for all-day wear, easy to walk in.

If I could give these Dakotas a 6 score, I would. These are stylish and sturdy. These have turned to my go to shoe on the week-end. I wear a WW and these were comfortable immediately.

I was so excited when I saw that this cute bootie came in a narrow. I am one of those unfortunate gals with a very slim foot. (If I am honest with myself, I am a AAA!) It is very hard to find any footwear that doesn't slip off my foot. I am happy to say that if you have a skinny foot, you will love this shoe when ordered in a narrow! Width was perfect. The color is actually more of a distressed grayish color instead of a true black. Sole is 'grippy' so there is no need to worry about slipping. Nice cushion. Will be great with jeans or a pair of tights and a cute skirt!

Love this boot! Comfy insole, safe & sturdy sole. Unfortunately, not sized as expected.

I love these! They look great with jeans and are so comfortable. The leather is soft and easily "distressed" which looks very cool and casual. The footbed is very padded and the sole is light and flexible. The toe box is slightly narrow (I'm sure it will stretch with just a couple of wears) but the width in general is perfect. The sole doesn't look like such a thick tread in person as it does in the picture. I'm ordering another pair in black! Can't go wrong with this boot!

Love them, I can wear them all day, I am educator and do a fair amount of standing. Had to dye them a true black though, the distressed leather did not look good in black.

Love these shoes. They are fabulous. If your looking for comfort and style, I recommend them. Once I put my feet in them and felt the footbed, I didn't want to take them off.

I wont lie, these are cute. Love the flexible traction sole as well. My only complaint is I wish it had a slightly shorter heel. I definitely feel like I'm standing on my toes all day.

I love this hat! I wear it all the time, it's like a hug for your head. I have it also in brown and considering other fun colors.
