I absolutely love Kipling bags, they're all so durable, cute and functional. I got this bag to use for school this year but ended up using it on vacation, at the airport and on the beach. I was worried my new bag might get destroyed but it still looks as good as new even after sitting in the sand and going through airport security! LOVE THIS BAG!

I ordered this bag to serve as a airplane carry on tote/purse for traveling. Not quite big enough so I ordered the larger Kipling bag for travel. This smaller one folded up flat in the larger bag and was perfect as a purse and carryall for use after having arrived at our destination. The only drawback is that it is not a cross body strap.

I walk to work and wanted a bag for carrying my all my stuff (sometimes I carry extra shoes in bad weather, etc.). This is good for that, as it's very roomy and lightweight - and I like the fact that it zips completely at the top. Be forewarned that it's pretty tall (especially if you're petite) but it looks okay. My main complaint is the straps, which are made of a slippery fabric; I'm not sure how they'd hold up to heavy use. I would have preferred straps with a bit more structure and "grip." (I also detached the keychain monkey immediately, as I didn't need that bouncing around.) This is fine as a casual travel or gym/shopping tote; I ended up buying something more tailored for my everyday work use though.

I did not like this boot at all. It gapped at the ankle causing poor ankle support and looked terrible. Also the laces were so long that I was stepping on them in the back. Disappointing since it looked so cute on line.

These boots are great! I bought them at the beginning of the rainy season and have worn them everywhere with no complaints. When you first get them you may want to wear thicker socks while the insides take shape to your feet, but once that's done you can wear anything you like, they're like slippers!

I severely sprained my ankle, and one of my doctors wanted me to get a pair that laced. Unless you get a military style, that is almost impossible, plus I needed something that was easy for my foot to get in and out. I can't, as of yet, flex that foot. Thank you Zappo's Customer Care Team. We searched for a LONG time to find a pair of shoes or boots that would suit my needs. I had no trouble with the fit or the laces, I used the length to my advantage. When I put them on, I bring the laces around the back and then to the front. I slide the laces through the tab in front and pull it snug; then I tie them They aren't tight like a cast, but they offer much more security than a normal boot when you tie it this way. These boots fit my feet well, the toe box is roomy, without being too wide. They are true to size and warm. Considering I'm going to be hobbled up with this ankle for awhile, I'm thrilled that I found a boot that offers all of the above, and great gripping on snow... Everything is very true to a Merrell shoe or boot.

I took this shoe to the South pole for hiking and staying dry in wet weather and it worked very well! I hiked in the mud and water puddles all day without getting wet, and it wasn't too warm either like some of the other synthetic lined "polar" wear. I also am impressed by the liner which doesn't get all stinky if you wear good socks. I have been frustrated by boots that you simply just can't clean. The sole has enough tread without being bulky and they are fashionable enough for casual wear in the rain, snow here. I was choosing between this boot and another water resistant one, but am very glad I choose this style as I don't think the other one would have held up in the mud the way these did. I have owned quite a few Merrell products and usually get good wear out of them, but they tend to run small in the shoe sizes, so I always get a 1/2 size up. They felt snug at first, and I was worried they would be too small, but they wore in nicely in very little time.

Right out of the box on my feet and I was thrilled. So comfy. They look great with jeans tucked in. I think it will be a great walking shoe for the winter. I love walking and finding the right shoe is important and hard to find. I knew right away that these will be great.

These boots are extremely comfortable and easy to slip in and out of. The fur keeps my feet warm and the leather is soft enough to make walking comfortable after the initial few minutes to break them in. The best thing about these boots is that they have studs on the bottom that make walking on ice much easier. Be aware that they are not designed for snow deeper than 7 inches. The front wraps around the back and ties, making it possible for deep snow to get in. As long as you aren't walking in deep snow then these boots are great.

These boots are very comfortable but as other reviewers mentioned the laces in the back are very long and could be annoying. I may have kept them anyway since I have such a hard time getting shoes and boots that don't hurt my bunions, but they were too small. I have narrow feet and usually take a 9.5 but these seem to run small and had to return.

These seemed to run a little small? I usually waffle between a 7.5 and 8; I ordered both and both were small. Also, the lacing in the back was a bit awkward. I may try an 8.5, but I also think I'll check for other styles as well.

Wonderful! Comfortable & warm. They are now my favorite shoes. I wrap the lace around and tie it in the front. The insole comes out so I could replace it with my custom orthotics.
