    These shoes are great! I work on my feet all day long. I was looking for a stylish yet comfortable black shoe. These are it! My only issue is that they are not "snug" in the heel or around my foot so it takes some getting used to. At first I felt like they would slip off my feet as I walked, but so far so good.

    Shoe Arch: Moderate arch support Shoe Width: Felt true to width
    Someone else wrote about the skidding on the heels. That happened to be right away when I was walking on a tiled floor in my office. The heel is plastic, so if you happen to step on the heel on even a slight angle, there's no traction, so you skid. It's happened several times already. And once it happened in front of a group of people and I almost did a split! But I think that can be remedied if I take the shoes to a repair shop and get little rubber pads to stick on the heel and give them some traction. Also, the left shoe fit fine, but the right shoe felt really loose. I think if I put a cushioning pad in the shoe, that will help. It doesn't slip off or anything, but it's a weird, unstable, loose sort of feeling. The shoes are cute, though, and I couldn't find anything like them in the dark antique chocolate brown color I got so I'm keeping them though they are not perfect and a little cheaply made (plastic heel, loose fit) for the price. But they're not bad.

    I like the heel height, I am pretty tall and was looking for something with a bit of a heel but not TOO tall. They did stretch out a little and now fit much looser. But I just wear thicker bootie socks. I really like the look and style with a pair of jeans, I don't know that I would wear them as actual booties with anything tucked in or skirts. There is room to tuck in if you wanted to, just not my style. Overall a good buy.

    Very comfortable. Look great with khaki pants and winter white. I bought these booties half size larger than my size and it worked for me. I would like it better if they had more support on the front, but otherwise not bad, especially considering the price.

    These are the coolest looking shoes! And the color! And the heels! I wanted sooo badly to be able to wear these boots, but try as I might, they were just too darned uncomfortable. I don’t really know why. My arch is high so getting my foot inside was kinda rough, but I think it was the Morton’s Neuroma I suffer from that was the real problem. I would recommend these boots for anyone with regular problem free feet. They really were cute.

    These boots are my first pair of "booties" and I absolutely adore them. I wasn't sure at first, what to wear them with, but now I can't find an outfit NOT to wear them with. I love the Blowfish brand in general - I have several pairs of blowfish boots and shoes. The only thing I've experienced that is slightly discouraging is the stability of these boots. Sometimes if I'm walking really fast on hard slick floors, I slip on the heel and almost roll my ankle or worse, do the splits! I do feel that it's the shape of the heel and not so much the shoe causing this, however, it's worth noting.

    I love these boots! They look amazing with all of my jeans, both skinny and straight. But especially the skinny. Like the only other Blowfish shoes, I have owned (a pair of felt flats) they are ridiculously comfortable. They are shockingly lightweight. My only concern is how well they will hold up since I have been wearing them every day! I purchased the chocolate and they are a great neutral. I may just have to get the whiskey, too!

    These shoes fit me true to size (I wear a size 6), and were neither too wide nor too narrow. They make my feet look very cute and small, and the rounded toe is comfortable to walk in. There is a definitive "boot" sound when you walk on wood or tile. The loose ankle makes it easy to tuck leggings in, but it also looks good under jeans. I found the arch support to be good, but I am not someone who needs a lot of arch support, so I am not sure if it is more supportive than other shoes. The dark brown leather is soft. They are easy to put on. The only negative is that my foot sits farther back on the heel than in other shoes I own. But I got used to it quickly. I really like these shoes!

    I bought these a few years ago and still love them. They are pretty comfortable to wear out at night, but I recommend wearing a thick sock with them to help absorb extra shock. I can't wear higher than 2.5" heel, so this is a perfect height for comfort and style. They go with jeans or tights and a skirt. I love traveling with them because I can wear them with so many outfits. I also recommend waterproofing them if you want to wear them in the winter/wet climate like New England.

    I am 5'9" and generally were a size 10. My first thought when I pulled them out of the nice Blowfish packaging was that they were cheaply made. The sole looked very thin, and the glue job on the heel was sloppy. The leather was unevenly colored in certain areas, not as if distressed for a look, but as if tanned/dyed poorly. The heel felt awkward, like it could break off easily. Maybe it was just psychological, as I could see the clear glue holding it to the leather. I'd rather pay more and have a more lasting sole.

    I absolutely love my Blowfish shoe booties! I debated between my usual size and a 1/2 size larger. I went with the 1/2 size larger and probably could have stuck with my usual size! They are very comfortable. The first time I wore them I had them on all day and did a lot of walking! The service from Zappos is fabulous! My son and I are huge fans!

    These have the perfect heel height if you want a levity, but can't handle too much heel. They are incredibly comfortable and do run a bit on the short side with the rounded toe. Otherwise, they are incredibly comfortable. This is an all day shoe and that says a lot for me. I have a bad back and really high arch so finding cool shoes provides a problem for me!

    These boots are awesome. Totally cute and fun to wear, yet comfortable for all day on your feet. I love them and would definitely consider a pair in another color! Zappos rocks!

    These are very true to size and lightweight. There is no wearing in needed. I bought these to wear with leggings and tights to add a little vintage chic. They do the trick!

    Great ankle boot. Fit is true to size. Very comfortable and insole is soft and well cushioned. Arch support is moderate, and I like a shoe with significant arch support, so for many people arch support would likely be considered very good. So cute. Scrunchy antiqued leather looks great with tights. The sole is rather thin, but this has not presented any problems. Very pleased with this purchase in color "Whiskey".
