This is a new brand I'm trying. So many good things to say...I love the style of Tesela. I bought the Mora color, which a dark wine shade...a bit unique. It is a very comfortable bootie that is made in Spain from leather that is specially tanned. The soles are made of recycled rubber. The inside of the booty is as soft as butter from the tanning process. For me, there is no break in time due to the softness of the leather. The rubber is very cushiony, and you can walk all day in these boots. These look great with jeans, slacks, skirts, and yes, even shorts! I'm not a real tree hugger, but the company story is very inspirational. They are providing a quality product made in Spain that is helping the environment and donating to 4 children's charities around the world. Zappos, please offer more of their styles.

These are worth every penny! I do not want to wear anything else. The Tesela offers excellent support for my troubled feet and they look good doing it. The footbed is not as cushiony as I expected yet I can walk and be on my feet all day without pain. I have a nerve problem in the ball of my foot. Another excellent feature is that they do not eat my socks like my last pair of ankle boots. I can wear pretty much any socks with these and they stay put!

First of all these boots are super cute! Second of all they were sized correctly. My feet are wide and a true size 5½. I ordered and returned three other pairs of boots before I found these. The problem with the euro sizing (35-36) is that size 36 is usually more like a 6 or even 6½. Now for comfort; If you were to just stand still and look pretty they would be very comfortable. The rubber heel and sole are really cushy. The problem I found with these shoes was the leather. I was really hoping for a softer boot. I wore them to work and my feet/ankles were sore after a couple of hours. The ironic thing is that these boots are very well made; top quality and excellent craftsmanship. My hope is that they will get broken in, stay comfortable and last forever with more wear. For the money; I would say that they are over-priced but only because of the comfort factor.

Best show for quality and comfort, but always buy a size larger, especially if you have a wide foot.

About El Naturalista
El Naturalista’s symbol, the frog, represents a land made fertile by water and embodies simple, worldly pleasures. The frog represents the permanent fight against stagnation and reflects their nonconformist character.
"Naturalistas" start their journey observing everything that surrounds them. They travel through the world and observe it, becoming impregnated by its textures, its colors, its lines... and after a thousand journeys, real and imaginary, they discover that a single idea brings us all together. Whatever our race or culture... we all walk in search of happiness.
It is that simple. And that complicated.
Market laws lead El Naturalista to a business model based on immediacy from which it is very difficult to free ones’ self. El Naturalista wishes to demonstrate to the world that it is possible to travel in a different direction, along a different road, living and enjoying life.
Movement is El Naturalista´s reason to exist. That is why they enjoy creating comfortable and attractive footwear that helps them to move along the amazing journey of life. They make shoes for people who embrace life as they walk. Their designers are inspired by dreams of a better world.
Aware of their responsibility to the world, they seek out indigenous communities who want to develop but who, at the same time, have much to teach them. In an act of mutual learning, they bring progress closer to the people who inspire them and help them to grow, not only as a group but also as individuals. Progress, if it is to be synonymous to devastation, makes no sense to them. Life inspires life and that is why El Naturalista develops footwear to walk through life with respect and care.
