Customer Reviews Steve Madden Troopa Combat Boot

I waited awhile after buying these boots before writing a review because I'd read several that said the sole split or there were other problems with quality. I've had no such problems. The boots are beautifully made as far as I can see, and the leather seems high quality and very sturdy. They also smelled amazing when I first opened the box. The boots are a very feminine version of a combat boot. They have a low profile and they are narrow, which makes them impossible to mistake for men's boots. Yet they still look tough. I've been looking for a pair of boots like this for years, and I am in love with these. One note on comfort, they are narrow and the seam at the toe does irritate my feet at times. If you have a wide foot, I would not recommend these. They also run a little small, which I have found is always true with Steve Madden. Other than that -- fantastic.

Great all around for fit, color, value, style. Great also for those who are creative and want a blank canvass to add studs!

I bought these for my 20 year old daughter and she loves them. They are sturdy, fashionable and true to size.

Super comfortable. I get lots of compliments. This is my second pair...yes I wore out the first pair. I wear them with jean and skirts for a little edge. My sister has this pair in brown and she loves them, too. The only complaint is that they have a strange odor at first when they are taken out of the box which goes away after wearing them a few times. I did also air them outside for a day. I highly recommend these boots.

So cute. Very comfortable. Suitable for all ages. Love these boots.

I bought these boots for my 13 year old daughter and she absolutely loved them. They fit true to size and wear in nicely after a bit. She wears them unlaced on top with pants or skirts. Very cute and she wears them often. Quick delivery! Thanks Zappos!

Just received these in the mail. I have to return them and try again because the 7.5 (which is my shoe size, has been forever) was hilariously too small. In addition to running small they must run narrow too because my feet on the wider side. Just wish I could have some warning that they are sized differently than any other shoe I've purchased from Zappos. And now I'm having doubts because all these reviewers said they'll fall apart. I bought and went through 2 pairs of crappy Payless boots both of which had the heel rip off the boot - I am going to be so frustrated if this more expensive pair fares the same. For now though I'm exchanging - a warning though - go up a full size! I am getting an 8.5 and have rarely ever fit an 8.

I love these boots. They are stylish and comfortable. I wear them with everything. Easy on and off too.

Fits and looks great - very comfortable. This boot seems to require a heavy/thick sock.

These boots are amazing! I have them in natural leather (the white-ish one) and have worn them twice so far. They are so comfortable, although are a little roomy in the toe, which is fine because if I ordered a half size down they would be snug. Anyways, I have gotten so many compliments! I like to wear them over skinny jeans, or they can even go with a skirt/dress! When it's warmer, I plan to wear them with shorts. They are so versatile. Plus, because of the wide flap, you can tie the shoelace further down and kind of slouch the flap forward. Anyways, I love these shoes.

These boots are awesome -- I wear them close to everyday (rain, mud), and they are super comfortable and look great with jeans or with tights. I wear an 11 and after a couple of wears they fit perfectly.

I bought these as a Christmas gift for my daughter and she loves them. Steve Madden does it again.

I absolutely love these boots! They are so comfy and stylish but the only downside is that they don't have a lot of sole support especially wearing them in the snow! I normally wear a size 7 but I order them in 7.5.

I love this boot. It is totally true to size, comfortable, the zipper makes putting them on and taking them off incredibly easy, and they look even better on than they do in the picture. I have to prevent myself from wearing them every single day, so I think that I might buy another pair in black. The only problem I've had with them so far is their lack of tread, but I love them so much I think that I am just going to get them resoled.

My 20 year old daughter loves these boots. She wears them with leggings and jeans. They are quality and hold their shape.

Really enjoying these boots! I got them for my daughter. Just what she was looking for. Very comfortable, even on a long day on her feet.

I really like these boots. I have been unsure if I wanted boots with laces and I didn't even have to compromise. I get the look of laces with out having to deal with them. Yah!

I just received these boots today and I'm in love! They are perfect! Just what I was looking for. I cannot wait to wear them with jeans, skirts, dresses, even shorts. I ordered my normal size 7 and they fit perfect.

There's nothing I don't like about these boots. They were comfortable from the first time I put them on and they are really cute.

Fast shipping! The boots were exactly what I expected and I love them! I bought a half size up because I heard they tend to run small and it fits perfectly!

These boots are great: true to size, unless you want to wear wool socks. User friendly (zippers and laces). Versatile. Also, the customer service at Zappos is impeccable, adorable, and the easiest representatives I have ever talked to over the phone.

Love these boots! They are super soft and flexible. Very stylish and look great with skinny jeans. Definitely a keeper.

Purchased these boots as a Christmas gift for my college-age daughter. She absolutely loved them and gets compliments on them all of the time

Perfect in every way. At first out of stock, but Zappos notified me as soon as the boots were available and we got them in time for Christmas and a trip to New York City. Worth waiting for. Walked all over the city, snow and all, boots were comfortable and warm.

These are excellent quality, wear-everyday-with-everything boots. They tend to run narrow, which is why they're great for narrow feet. Stylish, hip, comfortable.
