ROWENA LACE

Women's

As a plus size person whose feet tend to retain water, it is very hard to find a good quality pair of hiking boots. Especially ones that go past the ankle. I want to thank everybody here that left the review saying stay true to your size and let them break in... Instead of sizing up. When I first put them on I was panicked, and thought I would have to return them. I had to widen the laces and let the middle part show more than it is in the picture. (But that also leaves a lot of room for adjustment and comfortability.) Seriously, Let. Them. Break. In. It took me about 4 days to break them in. And it's been about 2 weeks where I can just slide them on and walk like it's nothing. They are the most supportive, comfortable, well designed, and flexible boots I've ever owned. I usually have to buy a wide boot but they are just wide enough. Wearing these boots in the garden, for nature walks, and even just to run errands, actually helps the swelling in my feet. They do show scuffs and marks easy but those usually fade and honestly they just look like a really nice well-worn hiking boot.. I don't have any issue with the aesthetic I'm going for comfortable, durable, and practical. I'm so happy with these boots that I'd like to buy another but maybe save up for a different color. I personally can't recommend these enough, for all sizes but especially anyone who's plus size that really wants to go on hikes in the woods lol. Thank you Teva team, you set a high standard

I bought these boots for a trip abroad because they seemed like a practical option with good tread and waterproof leather. It's just an extra perk they also look great! It did take a little bit to break them in for me (about a week worth of walks) but I wore them for miles walking over cobblestone streets, wet areas, muddy hiking trails and they were wonderful and comfortable the entire time. I am usually a size 7 in boots and purchased a 7 for these, they fit me best with medium weight wool socks, they do feel a bit big if I wear them with very thin boot socks. I also love the zipper! It makes it so easy to put these boots on!

The first time I wore these they were very painful along the heel, so I started breaking them in with short walks around the neighborhood. They now feel good (after about 4-5 wears and letting my sore heels heal up) but note there is a breaking in process! They look great, they are true to size, and I really have no other complaints. I have loved all my Tevas sandals and I went on a limb and bought these with no reviews, and I really like them, but I do think it's worth noting not to wear them on a big outing first thing!

I love boots, good quality leather boots. I was looking for a boot that could do it all, from dressing up with a cute dress to going out to kicking around town in joggers to hiking and rain. These boots fit the bill! Much lighter and less clunky than my Docs. Easy side zip!!! And with several wears now, the leather is breaking in really nicely! I have wide feet, usually wear barefoot style shoes, and these have room in the toe box and the leather is adapting to my foot. Fit true to size. Love them for traveling because they're so versatile, so I just need these boots and a sandal for my whole trip. They've excelled in Texas, Colorado, California, and Costa Rica so far! Highly recommended, just remember to wear them and break them in before doing a high-mileage jaunt. I put moleskin patches on my heels the first 2 or 3 wears, and now they're good and I don't need the patches anymore.

These boots fit well but do have a break in period like others are saying. I found that during this period it helps to tie the boots a bit tight so the heel does not rub. These boots look great and are very practical. It's hard to find a cute boot that can be worn to work, going out, in the rain, and on a hike. To all the comments about scuffs and folds, I noticed this too and am shocked that people don't realize this is how leather typically wears? Especially waterproof leather. These are boots that will wear with time but in a good way. If you want a shiny sleek boot, this is not it. If you want a solid pair of leather boots that will only look better as they wear with age, this is the one! Also, they fit true to size. I wear a 9.5 in most shoes but sometimes get a 10. A 9.5 was perfect and was only right for the first day out of the box. I find that sometimes shoes fit too narrow on me and while these look narrow I do not have issues with pinching.
