I like it, but I don't love it as much as I thought. It runs very narrow and is not that comfortable. It is very difficult to get on and off because of the straps pulling the boot and making it smaller. It's cute, but I don't know if I love it like I thought I would.

Love Minnetonka's and this boot is no exception! They are a great value! They do run large. I'm between a 6 1/2 and a 7 and I always take a 6 1/2 in these and can still wear thick socks for warmth I choose to.

Love them...oh so comfortable, true to size, nice soft suede, adjustable by undoing and redoing the buckle, slouch just a bit, look great and great comments when I wear them, I have several pairs of different styles and love them all, quality suede and material, highly recommend; I most likely will be buying more Minnetonka Boots.

Love these boots. They fit true to size and they stay up! Adorable with leggings and tunics.

These boots are so cute! They do seem a bit narrow at first, but because of the material they stretched perfectly to fit my foot after the first wear. I have shorter legs and these boots make them appear longer. I love them so much I'm getting them in another color!

Unlike one of the reviews I had read, this boot does not run small at all, or narrow. To me it is true to size, both in length and width. It's a pretty boot, comfortable and soft. The only issue is the slide in and out one. Being un-lined it does not slide in easy, not even with silky socks. You actually have to sit down and ease the foot in and then adjust. Other than that, I'm happy with it, but then Minnetonka has always been a good match for me.

I love the look of these boots, and I decided to keep them. However, I must warn you they DO run narrow. I am on the smaller side of size 6. I ordered a 6 and my right foot is literally throbbing from the tightness around the pad of my foot. I am hoping, like another reviewer mentioned, that they will stretch. The left boot is perfect; and I have never had such a discrepancy between my feet (I know one foot is larger than another, but this is ridiculous). There is no lining for the boots, just very soft suede. I have small, but muscular calves (with no ankles to speak of) and the shaft of the boot sat nicely on my legs. I could easily fit leggings in there, possibly jeans, but I prefer boot cut jeans so these boots will be for leggings for me. The footbed also feels very flat, wish I had room for insoles but I think a 6.5 will be a boat on my left foot. They feel like walking in house slippers. Hope that helps! They really look funky and cool, less common than the UGGs I see everywhere in the Winter. You can tone them down by taking off the studded buckle, and they still look original.
