These are great for me! The materials that go into them are far superior to the synthetic Orthaheels. I have very challenging flat feet that are also slender (or with low "volume", so I'm told), so mules won't stay on. The strap keeps them nicely in place. I can see how the sturdy, high quality leather might cut into a thicker foot. The sizing for me is the same as I take in the Tide sandal, which I lived in all summer, a size 9 works for my 9-9.5 feet. Worth every penny to me. While the style isn't the best, they look pretty cute with my skirts. I do have to be careful with the Velcro and my tights, though. You have to like firm support to appreciate this shoe.

I loved the look of this shoe and the arch support was ortha-excellent but they were heavy and clunky to wear and the stiffness of the leather at the area where the foot bends as one walks was uncomfortable as it dug into my foot; was hoping for the same comfort as the Melissa / the other Dr. Weil model I tried was also unacceptable because of heaviness and lack of flex.

I was very sad that these shoes were so stiff and uncomfortable. The styling is very cute, although the velcro closure did snag the nylons that I had on. The arch support was excellent as the orthoheel footbed usually is. The problem was the leather was so stiff it would cut into my foot and rub at certain spots. The rim of leather on the top of the foot was cutting into my foot a bit.

I love these boots! I wish there were other colors besides the two brownish versions because I'd buy more. If you don't like a super squishy foot bed, these probably aren't for you, but if you like to sink in, you will love these. I usually wear a 7.5 or 8 in shoes and boots, and got these in an 8W. Honestly, I could probably have worn the 7.5, but I like to have the option for thick socks, so I kept the 8. The styling is just gorgeous, and I definitely think these are worth giving a try.

Runs quite small - a full size small. I'm a true size 5, but ordered a 5 1/2 because size 5 was out of stock. But the 5 1/2s are very snug - my toes hit right up against the front of the boot, with no wiggle room. I'm going to try them in a 6, because otherwise I like the boot - the leather is soft, the footbed is springy and padded, and the brown color is deep and rich. The shape of the toebox could be improved, though - it's just sort of rounded off and detracts from the stylishness of the boot. I also ordered the Lassen Amelia in a size 5 and they fit perfectly. Also, the description of both boots say the shaft height is 8 in, but the Amelia is noticeably higher than the Kansas. So I took it upon myself to measure the shafts of both boots according to Zappos' definition (Shaft - The height of the shaft measured from the middle of the arch up the outsole of the boot to the top of the boot shaft in inches). The Lassen Kansas has a shaft of 7 inches (not 8).

I love these boots! I have very wide feet and large calves and ankles. I have a hard time finding boots that fit, but the wide version of these shoes worked great. Glad I took the chance. Extremely comfortable and good lookin'!

These are some of the most comfortable boots I have ever owned! I did get a wide width because it said medium was a "B" and I normally wear a "C". Truthfully, the medium width would have probably worked out just fine, but I decided to keep them and wear thicker socks. The leather is very soft, but durable--I have already put them to the test with a whole day of walking and shopping in the rain. Buckles are high quality. Inside is padded and very supportive. Love these boots--am a Lassen fan for life now!

This is a great boot! The only thing with Lassen is inconsistency with sizing. I ordered one size bigger because of another pair of Lassen boots I tried that were extremely small. But this boot is either about right or maybe a half size small. They look great and as far as I can tell will be comfortable so I am ordering another pair.

I absolutely love these boots! I have skinny feet and these are a little snug, so I just wore tights with them and they are perfect! They are very comfortable and I get a lot of compliments! I love comfortable, but stylish and not old looking shoes!

I love these boots! The last thing I needed was another pair of mid-calf, brown boots, but I fell in love with the look of them ordered anyway. They have quickly become my very favorite. I love the fact taht they have a wide option. I have fairly thick calfs and they fit fine, but they are a little too tight to tuck jeans into. The leather is a very soft and the sole flexible, so they have a nice, comfortable shoe-like feel. I love them.

Love the boot! Very soft leather and comfy. The heel is great for a longer jean. Nice gold buckles!

Love! I love these boots. They're just as cute in person as online, and they're amazingly comfy. They fit true to size.
