Love IT - Purchased a pair 2 years ago and I am ordering another pair!!!! Comfortable, sexy, received numerous comments from men and women!!!!!! Love it!!!!! I wish they came in different colors, like zebra with a red heel!!!! Ordered a half size larger for the pointed toe!!! Love, this is my second review as well and not to mention, Carlos Santana has been a FAB FAV of mine since the 70’s!!!

Carlos Exude Pumps - The shoes were absolutely gorgeous in person as they were on the site. One of the best animal prints of the season.

Hot, Hot, Hot Shoes!!!! These shoes are beautiful! They are comfortable and fit true to size. I had been looking for a pair of animal print pumps. What I loved about these versus the others I had seen is the unexpected addition of the red heel. This makes this shoe a true standout!

Leopard lover - This shoe is an absolute stunner. I sometimes think Santana's shoes are a little over the top, but he has scored a winner in this one. The quality and style of this shoe makes it easily pass as a couture design. The price is unbelievable. I love the red heel and sole which likens it to a Louboutin. It's amazing that I own at least five pairs of leopard shoes but they all look different! Way to go Carlos. And as always many kudos to Zappos for always exhibiting outstanding Customer Service!

:) furry animal print - I usually steer clear of anything animal print, but I was convinced by a friend that these would be awesome, so I got them. They're now my favorite pair of shoes!

HOT! HOT! HOT!! These shoes are incredibly sexy and make you feel the same when wearing them. For comfort I would rate them a 4 to dance in (if you're use to high heels such as these) and a 5 for a great dinner/lounge night out. :)

Carlos Santana Exude - This shoe is very hot!!! The first time I wore it, EVERYONE commented about how hot they were. I did allot of shopping and there is nothing in the leopard print that compares in both style and quality. The red heel is the best part and offers more flexibility in wardrobe. The only issue is the comfort. The heel is VERY high, and by the end of the day, my feet were aching ( and I wear high heels daily).

Hot but uncomfortable - I love the look of this shoe, but it certainly was not comfortable. Because of the very high. Thin heel I tried to cushion the ball of my foot with an insert...this made my toes too crowded. I did wear them to a Christmas party and survived, I received many compliments. A shoe this hot will never be comfortable and that was a chance I was ready to take!

These shoes rock!!! Absolutely made for girls with rock star attitude the red heel is out of this planet and definitely different...the only downside is if you wear them to a night club they will get scratched when dancing specially the cow hair comes off very badly so push people away from you if you have to! Cause they are worth every penny and should be taken care of! I am 7 1/2 but the 8 was the only one available and it fit right on. I have narrow to medium feet so I guess shoppers should go for 1/2 size up of what they normally order. I love Zappos by the way great attitude and all the free shipping keeps me coming back for more!!!!

Leopard Pony-Hair - Hot Shoe!!! Runs a tad-bit wide but looks absolutely marvelous. The heel seems a bit higher than 4 inches (not much though) but is real sexy. Cannot go wrong with this shoe. If you have the personality, you can wear this shoe with virtually anything. The first time I wore them, I was on my feet for 4 hours, no pain! I'm pleased with this purchase.

Greatest boots ever made! I absolutely love these boots, they are soooooo comfortable and look really classy! I've always had a hard time keeping my feet warm but no more! I know that in the not so distant future I will be buying more and will be telling all my friends and relatives how wonderful they are!

I got these boots as a Christmas present from my husband. I've wanted them forever. I love these boots. They're so comfortable and keep my feet toasty warm with the winters we have in Michigan. I'm sure when these one day wear out, I'll have to get another pair. What a great gift these are.

Cheri in MN These boots feel like slippers on your feet. I came in from outdoors and forgot to take them off! Not only are they comfortable, they are toasty warm. Was very happy with this Christmas present!

Crawl inside and relax I bought these boots thinking it was going to be a harsh winter. Even if it doesn't turn out to be as bad as I thought (its 60 today!) the breathable sheepskin will be comfortable on my feet. The fleece inside was so soft I know the cat wanted to just crawl inside and relax! Oh to be kitten-sized again! Also these boots are very light weight. If you're like me you despise heavy shoes and shy away from a lot of boots for the sheer weight. These are surprisingly light inspite of the height and fleece. The sole seems extra light. The look is sporty and cute.

Imagine the softest, warmest blanket wrapped around your feet. That's what it feels like to wear these boots. Mine arrived just as I was going out to shovel snow. Normally, I have to come back inside to warm my feet before I'm finished. Not anymore, to coin a phrase, "I've got happy feet." I do suggest considering a size smaller than you normally wear though.

Buy Them! I'm someone who never has warm feet and was a bit concerned that these would make my feet too hot and sweaty. Fear no more! I love them! They are comfortable and you never end up with sticky feet. Now if only I could find a way to wear them to work.....

Couldn't be more perfect! With cold winter months shortly away here in the nor'eastern territory, I'm ready to face the snow and cold! They just arrived today and they're awesome! I also have the slippers, but these are a real treat that I plan on living in!

I hate cold feet - Last year I sat in a stadium in Normal Illinois to watch my granddaughter's band perform. I just about froze. This year I took no chances, and ordered these boots hoping they would be warm and comfy. I was a little uneasy ordering boots over the internet and without trying them on, but I read the other reviews and took a chance. They were perfect. My feet were warm and I was a cheerful grandma. (Her band took 3rd place out of 47 competing bands!)

Warm and Cozy - I just received these boots two days ago and haven't taken them off yet. They are incredibly soft and warm abd very reasonably priced. Compared to Ugg's they are an excellent value and just as comfortable. I wish they came in kids sizes, I'd get my daughter a pair too!

Great boot, so cute and so cozy! This is a great boot. They look very similar to UGG ultra shorts. I got a size larger than I usually wear even though they recommend it should be snug when you get it because the sheepskin stretches. But I like my winter boots loose, since I think they are warmer that way. Either way, these are great boots.
