Customer Reviews Stacy Adams Madison Boot

Stacy Adams Madison Boots - sized small - I love the look of these boots, but they run much narrower than my shoes (narrow last). Consequently, my orthotic device will not fit inside the shoe. I also have large calves, and needed extra long laces to even lace the boot to the top. Even then, the look of the boot is destroyed because they bulge at the top over my big legs. Perhaps these are not a good choice for wide, flat feet and large legs - even in EE width.

Ah Leather Soles - I ballroom dance and swing dance, so I was looking for a boot that could work for either. This fit the bill nicely. I can wear it in, dust it off and dance. Usual care for leather soles applies and if you expect to wear them long term, expect to replace the sole a time or two... Breaking them in hurt a fair bit. I recommend lacing them rather tightly the first few times wearing them to train the tongues properly. I wore my right foot a bit loose and that tongue is always drifting to one side now. It’s worth the couple days discomfort to properly break the shoe in. The shoe is long and thin, so take care when ordering and if you think you might need a wider shoe, order it wider... all in all great shoe and I love wearing a replica swing shoe swing dancing... A shame no one else notices...

Great shoe, (Old man comfort, This is a standard among shoes, looks great, a little uncomfortable at first after the second day that's gone, and wears great for shoes. Zappos has everything you would want.

Vintage Army Shoe - If you need a vintage US Army dress shoe (1902-1920's) this is as close as you can come to. The welts would have to be dyed black and the tab assist is not included (not seen in uniform anyway), all else matches quartermaster drawings.

I bought the brown boot. Buyer should be aware this boot has a fairly high shine to it (maybe more than the website picture conveys). The shoe seemed a little long, but since it has a fairly pointy toe, I think the extra length is reasonable. The shoe also runs a little narrow. As far as shopping with Zappos goes - it is very easy to make purchases and returns. I went through a number of shoe styles and sizes to find what I wanted and got no hassles about the number of returns. Billing and credits were handled correctly and promptly.

Overall good shoe - I really like this pair of shoes. They are very comfortable for dress shoes and required no time to break in. no blisters or having to switch to another pair half way through the day. The only issue I had when ordering is that the shoes run larger and narrower than normal. I normally wear a 9.5 regular and had to get an 8.5E in this shoe.

New Boots - Looked for a good lace up ankle boot for quite a while. The boot is comfortable, goes well with business casual attire and has been a welcome addition to my shoe rotation. It goes really well with corduroy. Would have liked it even better if it had come in cordovan or a darker brown.

It's like walking on air!!! Let me say this to all of you out there that may happen to glance at this review: Do it! Buy it! Get yours now! I am one that has always been very skeptical about buying anything over the internet, especially when it comes to clothing or shoes. Because I have a large foot 13EEE, 14D or E, I always buy my shoes right where I can try them on and see if they fit or not. I also know that my left foot is larger than the right, so I always try on the left shoe. If the left shoe fits and it feels good, then I know I'm buying me a pair of shoes. This is the first time I have ever brought any type of apparel via the internet and only the third time that I've made any purchase over the internet in my life (I've had internet service since 1996). I honestly have to say, I was pleasantly surprised with my purchase and the fit was fantastic. I've always wanted a stylish boot shoe that was smart and elegant looking and fit well (looking smart with screaming toes or feet just doesn't cut it). Believe me when I say I will be looking for other shoes on this site in the very near future. Although the shoes are beautiful and they feel fantastic, I just wish that they were a chocolate brown color that would have been the ultimate. I'm seriously considering getting them in black too.

Too much Country, not enough Rock n Roll- These shoes are hot, got to admit it. However, they're a bit shiny, which can actually be cool if you let them scuff and break in rather than polish them like precious gems. The biggest drawback is if worn with the wrong pants they look like cowboy boots. If worn with strait or pegged leg pants the look is way more rock n roll. Or plaid shorts w/ black socks and sock garters; another hot look.

Great Shoe! I purchased the black boot, after looking at them wantingly for several months. It was worth the wait! I love these boots! I walk to work in them, almost 1.5 miles each day and they are super comfortable. I've been wearing them in various weather conditions and they seem to be holding up great. My only complaint is that they feel a half or whole size larger than marked. Beware of this! They will stretch out well, so go lower than you think. Otherwise, this a perfect shoe for me!

The Stacy Adams Madison boot is unquestionably a striking piece of footwear. I received my order in short time and have been very pleased with the fit and appearance of this shoe. Having stated that, I have my doubts about the quality of this shoe. It seems to appear somewhere between a decent quality shoe and not. Time will tell. As with other reviewers, I replaced the flat shoestrings more befitting an athletic shoe with some round dressier ones. I also have had the upper part of the sole dyed black to match the rest of the shoe. The white stitching and brown leather reminds me more of a cowboy boot than that of a dress shoe. Also as earlier reviewers stated, I have found the soles to be quite slippery and have had non-slip put on them. For the money and work involved in these shoes, I think they are well worth it. I would definitely replace them with the same when the time comes, and I will definitely do business again with Zappos as they seem to be a very good company to do business with.

Back in Time - Great Shoe for the Price.

Dress down or up - These are excellent shoes for someone that needs to be able to toss on a sportcoat and fit in with a bunch of suits. Keep a microfiber jacket in your saddlebags and your good to go.

Nice boots - I like these boots, looks, feel etc.. are great BUT they are not comfortable for wearing all day long.

Too wide and too long, height hurt Achilles

I took the advice of the other reviewers and ordered a full size down from my normal size and a wide (E) width. I was surprised to find the "E" to be extremely narrow and uncomfortable - comically narrow. I can imagine the "D" width to be of a doll's shoe. The length was fine, but I returned them for the "EE".
