Calf too wide for me -
I am a true size 7 but they have 7-7.5 which I ordered and it was too big. I then got the 6.5 which fit perfectly, but the calf was just a little too wide at the top for my skinny legs. I had high hopes because these are really good looking boots.

Love my boots -
I like these boots because they are stretchy over my calves. I could never find boots that would zip up over my calves. They also have a rounded toe box, which is great because I had bunion surgery a couple of years ago and I believe my podiatrist would approve! The boots are stylish, too. Not old lady looking. They are cozy!

Great boots!
I liked these boots so much I bought a second pair. I walk a lot and they don't hurt my feet, even when I wear them all day. I put some gels in them for extra comfort and so they wouldn't be quite so roomy in the toe area, but they'd be okay without. They look great with skirts for formal or casual. I call them my Superman boots. Thanks for the usual great service, Zappos.

Nice comfy boots -
I'm enjoying these boots a lot. They look nice, have a soft heel so they're quiet to walk in, and they're comfortable. I find myself wearing shorter skirts than usual just to show them off!

Nice boot!
If you're looking for a neat, feminine, snug-fitting boot that is not leather, this one's for you. The material is not too shiny, as a lot of synthetic boots are, and it really does look like good quality leather. I bought the brown in my usual size 7.5 and it fits well. The only problem for vegetarians is that the boots may look too much like real leather, causing your animal rights friends to suspect you of losing the faith! I added foam inserts to make them more comfortable.

Great boot! Recommended!
Great tall boot. I got them for xmas last year in brown, and now I am ordering them in black. They go great with skirts, jeans, etc and the fit is just right. Not too baggy in the calf (I have avg to small calves) and just the right height. Usually I wear a 6.5, but I ordered a 36 and it fits great, given I usually wear it with trouser socks or tights. Can be a little tight in the toe box, but its no problem and really doesn't impact the comfort much unless you wear them for over a week, ten hours per day...

Rieker's 72954 -
I love these boots. I search countless departments stores looking for high boots that fit right and stayed up on my calves - I have average sized calves - but finding the right pair seemed impossible. I was reluctant to purchase boots online, but w/ Zappos' "Free Shipping Both Ways" - felt I had nothing to lose. These boots are extremely comfortable and the stretchy top stays put. Loooove them.

hard to fit -
From the moment I put these boots on they were comfortable. More stylish than I can usually wear, no problem with the calf being to short or tight. There was enough room to insert my 3/4 foot orthodics. I bought the boot in both brown and black.

Super duper boot!
I bought this boot a year ago in brown. It's rich in color, soft in texture, and super comfy. I never had to break them in. I wear them all the time. They still look new after a year of wear. They are very soft and stretchy and are especially cute with skirts because you can see how they scrunch around your ankle. I was surprised to see that I could slip them on without a problem, and they are comfortable to wear all day, whether it be at work or walking all over town. I've ordered another pair in black. I love this boot!

Rieker black boots -
This boot was the third that I ordered. It fits great and is comfortable for all day wear. I am 5 1/2 months pregnant, and I need a steady and low heel. This boot fits the bill, while still being stylish!

Awesome boot -
I never wear heels and have to stand around all day on my feet at work. These boots are really comfortable to stand in, from the footbed to the calf area. They are pretty simple to pull on and I like that they don't have a zipper that can pinch skin. I do wish that the toe and heel were a little less chunky and a little more trendy, and that the color was a little lighter (they are almost black). But other than that, a fantastic boot!

Good all-purpose boot -
Usually I wear a 6.5 or 7, or 37 European (which I ordered). The fit is good, though the pitch is a bit off for me. My feet seem to be thrust forward in these boots, but a gel pad under the ball of the foot fixed the problem. They bag a bit around the ankles, but I do have very skinny ankles. Style-wise: They are passable (not great). I wanted a plain simple boot, yet something more refined looking. Comfort: Accommodate my bunion well; no pain. Since they don't breathe, they do get too hot during strenuous activity, but they're just fine for normal day-to-day activity. These boots have a soft lining and I find them easy to put on and take off. I'm satisfied with these boots, but my leather Naturalizers (which don't seem to any longer be available) are a more comfortable and better looking boot.

It's a keeper -
These boots required no break-in at all: super comfy, despite not being very cushy.
There's no need to order up a half-size to accommodate socks because the boot runs slightly large. A pull-on boot will have some slack around the ankle, but this one doesn't look at all sloppy.
The chestnut color is terrific. It's a beautiful, rich brown with some subtle variegation. I'll use it as a neutral & wear it often.

Fabulous boots -
As the Zappos reviews indicate, these boots are made for walking. Light and comfortable, they're a total pleasure. I was doubtful about the non-leather uppers but they really do look and feel like soft leather.

Mostly comfy, mostly good looking -
I'm happy with this boot although I'd prefer something that bagged a little less around the ankle area. I usually wear between a 6.5 and 7 and even the 6.5 feels a little bit big. Still, it's a good boot for the price.

My second pair!
I love the simple design of this comfortable boot--I walked miles the first day I wore my first pair! It fits snugly enough around the foot (I'm a 9N) and calf so that I can wear it with dresses and skirts without feeling clunky. I now own two pairs because I love the look and comfort. I would definitely recommend.

Awesome Boots, Comfortable and Easy On/Off -
I had recently hurt my ankle on one foot and my little toe on the other foot and finding comfortable shoes/boots has been SO hard and very expensive.
These boots are so comfortable. They pull right on and the material is kind of stretchy and forms right to the calves. Pulling them off is easy because you can just pull the fabric down around your calves and then pull them off. It's so soft and pliable, but doesn't slouch. First time I ever had a fabric like this on a boot.
They are awesome!!

Love this boot. Comfy, but stylish. Nice heel, but not too high. Its great for my skinny calves - although it does not fit snug on them. Most boots swallow up my stick legs and this one doesn't.

Great fit & look, but don't breathe -
These are great looking boots and pretty comfortable (after walking around a lot, the thin sole and lesser support were noticeable), but probably because they're synthetic they don't breathe and make my feet hot.

Love this boot -
This is so amazingly comfortable and fits my calf so well that I immediately ordered it in the other color. It should be a fantastic all-purpose boot for fall and winter with pants or skirts. Because the other reviews were so favorable, I ordered the first pair although my size, according to the Rieker chart, was unavailable. I usually wear a European 37, but Rieker indicated that 38 was what would work for me. I'm glad that I did, because the fit is perfect.

Fabulous Quality Boot That Fits my Calves -
I can't tell you how long I've been searching for a boot that fits my calves comfortably (my legs are too big for a regular fit, but gap terribly in "wider calf" styles). These fit the ticket as they don't pinch and roll on like socks. They aren't heavy like leather
and don't make your calf sweat like a lined leather boot (so you can wear them in early autumn as well as winter & spring). I was apprehensive about pleather vinyl as I think it's cheesy...but I trust Rieker as they are a high quality German brand, so I tried them. I'm so glad! They look sleek and appropriate with gauchos and casual skirts and are very, very comfortable. I bought another pair of vinyl Rieker's in black in a different style...love 'em just as much!

Great Pull-On Boots -
While I've only worn these boots once (it's not quite cold enough yet), they are very nice. While I normally wear a 9.5, with the European sizing, I bought a 41 (about a 10). I definitely need to wear thicker socks with these (stockings or bare feet don't cut it). But, they were comfortable and no breaking in is needed. They look great too -- I love the dark brown color. I'd definitely give these a try! And Zappos is great with the fast shipping!

Boot description -
I was looking for a more stylish boot. This one was too dorky looking for me-I wanted to wear it with short skirts or dresses etc. and maybe go dancing or a sleek look at work.
I'm returning them.

At last!
These are great boots. I was afraid the stretch fabric would look cheesy and make them hard to get on, but they really do pull on like socks, and you can't tell it's not a leather shaft. The pitch places your weight on the heel rather than the ball of your foot, they feel like flats. Unless you need really good built-in arch support, you won't find anything this comfortable, and unless you're looking for very fancy evening boots, you won't find much that's better looking-- believe me, I've tried!
