I love the look of these boots. Nice heel height. The leather has a unique look as well. The heel was too lose in my regular size and is a tad tight to get into a size smaller. I went for the half size smaller and once the boot is on, they are great.

I love these brushed suede boots! They fit true to size and are very comfortable. They are a great alternative to typical western boots.

These are very cute and comfy looking, but alas, I have to return them because I can't even get my foot in them without a shoehorn. I have a high instep so guess I will have to find boots with a zipper - the pull ons don't seem to work for me.

Love, love, love these boots. Chic biker look and so so comfortable. I've got miserable feet, and these make them happy all day long. Fit well, wear well, look great.

Love these boots!!! Comfortable and stylish and great price! The only downside is the difficulty in putting them on! Too bad the inside seam didn't have a zipper! I kept them because once they are on, they rock! Just very narrow in the ankle area!

This is a nicely made boot with the traditional Pliner quality. But in my size (10M), the boot seemed too chunky and a bit masculine for me. In a smaller size, I imagine that it is quite stylish.

Extremely difficult to get on, which is a shame because once on, they are extremely comfortable and true to size. A bit of a defect in design.

Love the style and feel of the boot. Perfect biker chic boot, however, I found them too big. The ankle was wide and my foot kept slipping out. So unfortunately am returning.

Liked these a lot but they were impossible to get on. I have pretty normal arches, but couldn't get my feet past the tight ankle in these boots and had to return. Very disappointed because I loved the look and quality of these boots!

The shoe is a pretty patent leather. Comfortable stable wedge. There were a little tight. I'm an 8 and a little narrow but I wear medium width. If you have wider feet, this will be too tight for you.

Ow! I should've listened to the other reviews - these shoes run VERY small! I'm normally a 9 1/2 or maybe 10. I ordered a 10, and it was actually difficult to even get the shoe on! Otherwise, they were cute. Not incredible quality, but on par for what I would expect, given the price. Next time I'll pay attention to my fellow savvy Zappo shoppers...

I really wanted to love these shoes, but they were just way too tight in the toes area. My toes fell asleep. The are super cute and just the right heel height. They are unfortunately going back. They fit true to size besides being extremely narrow.

These shoes fell apart after the first time that I wore them to work. I had to glue the sole back on both shoes. Extremely disappointed that I wasted money on a pair of shoes that would only last one day!
