Laurel Bootie

Women's

Great style of boot with a lower walking heel. Nice quality leather that is supple and not too hard. I wore them for several hours the 1st time wearing.

The boot was quite nice and very stylish. When I put the left one on with my orthotic in place, it was great. But the right boot was so stiff I questioned whether it would ever soften up. I even checked that it was the same size and not 1/2 size smaller. It was the same, just very stiff. So I am returning.

Love the look of these out of the box however- I think a previous reviewer said this also- the toe box was just unnecessarily long like by at least half an inch. Not flattering on the foot which is too bad because I thought these looked really cool before I put them on! Returned for this reason.

This boot is very pretty, however it is long in the toes. I can see this getting scuffed very easily. I tried my normal size and the foot part felt great but it hurt my shins while walking. There is not much give and I wound up with bruised shins just walking around my house. Ultimately I decided to return them. Beautiful but not practical for me.
