Baretraps

These boots are just for looks. I bought them at a Shoe Carnival store a few weeks ago and thought they would be perfect for fall/mild winter. They would be. IF there is no rain or snow that is. I normally have a 15-20 min walk to work. Today it rained pretty steadily. I thought my new boots would be perfect for the weather. I was wrong. My feet were wet and sloshing in water in the first 5 min of my walk. The boots are nicely made and I believe made of leather, but they soak up rain drops like a sponge. If you buy them, do your feet a favor and only wear the boots in dry weather. Also, arch support is limited. Otherwise, no complaints.

I generally wear a 81/2, but had to order a 9 to be able to wear it. I wish they were made in a narrow. Rthat would have really fit my foot better. With additional insoles I can wear them . I bother with that because I like the looks of the shoe. It fits my need.....not too dressy, and not too causal. -a 72 yr old Grandma

I bought both the Baretraps Womens Goldie Whiskey 7.5m and the Baretraps Womens Yasmyn Brush Brown 7.5m. 7.5m is my normal size, and both boots fit the same. Yes, they are slightly larger than most 7.5s but it's a good thing -- it provides just enough room for some Dr. Scholl's "Tri-comfort" insoles - the kind which have an arch support. The Yasmyn are a little darker in color than the Goldie Whiskey. Both have slight variations in their coloring which means any shade of brown leather bag will go great with them. Very pleased with this purchase!

I usually wear 8.5 -9.0 M, ordered 8.5 since I'd read other reviews stating they run large, altho other reviews stated they were tru to size. The 8.5 felt like 9.5 and no arch support. I did try putting arch inserts in the boot since I liked the style and if it had made a difference I'd have ordered a smaller size, however, it made little difference, the lack of support makes my ankles fall in. I really wanted to love this boot :(

I loved these booties. Unfortunately, I ordered a 1/2 size bigger than I wear after reading a review that they were tight & couldn't wear thick socks with them. I should have ordered the size I usually wear. Overall, that 1/2 size bigger was just too big for my foot. I think in the right size, they might feel like they are between a narrow width and a medium width. I returned them since I found a similar style (probably last year's model), same brand, that had the size that I needed. I would've reordered these in my usual size if I had not found the others. These Baretraps Selyna are beautiful! Looked fantastic with both jeans and leggings. I have an 3 year old Baretraps boots that are mid calf & they are very comfortable. That influenced me when I was looking for a low cut boot. I think this will be a very popular bootie as soon as there are more reviews out there.

I am really pleased with this purchase. The only warning I would give is that the boots are snug enough that I don’t think you could wear thick winter socks with them. But since the boots are lined I’m not worried about that :)

I thought they were super cute but When I tried them on they were very uncomfortable. There was no arch support at all. The inside is very hard and uncomfortable to walk in.
