Great fit. Although leather was a bit stiff on the first wearing, it quickly loosened up and the shoes are now among my favorite. Size seems to run a tad larger, which works in my favor as I like to add molded inserts for greater arch support. I will buy more of this brand.

I purchased these for my husband in the Taupe. The color is a lot lighter than it appears in the picture. Nevertheless, my husband is happy with the style and fit!

I noticed others' comments when I was buying that these boots run about a size bigger than what they are marked. I took their advice and ordered a size smaller (13 instead of 14) and I was glad that I did. At first the shoes felt a bit narrow, but it did not take long to break them in a bit and they no longer pinch my feet. There is not much arch support, but that does not bother me. The sole is soft enough that it makes up for it. I would not want to walk long distances in these boots (yet) but for normal daily activities they are great. If you are in a snowy climate, I do not recommend these for outdoor use in winter. They do not have any tread whatsoever, so you might slip around a bit. I have not fallen yet, knock on wood. They look great though and overall I recommend them.

My husband and son LOVE these boots and each have 2 pairs in different colors. They work with a lot of different looks and hold up really well and are very comfortable.

I purchased these boots for my husband for christmas and he absolutely loves them! He says they are the most comfortable boots he has ever owned. They look great too! He normally wears an 11 and we sent back for a 10 1/2 and they fit perfect.

Bought these for my HS student as I was tired of sneakers with his jeans everyday. Great fit, very comfortable and very popular, he got a lot of compliments.

Bought these for my husband for Christmas to dress up jeans or wear with khakis. Of course they arrived quickly with Zappos. The leather is quality and they are a very stylish shoe. My husband's only complaint was that they were not easy to walk in. I think he's gotten used to it now; however, just the basic style of the boot doesn't provide much of a grip around your ankle, possibly even foot- which he wasn't used to. I can see the laces might not hold up, but if you're a man who takes good care of shoes, I'm sure they would be fine. Also because they are all leather they will require some upkeep. They are already a little scuffed after a month of wear but some leather conditioner would take care of that I think.

Been buying from Zappos for years now and my satisfaction peaks with this shoe. This Clarks boot is stylish and highly durable. Fits very well/true to specifications. However, with wear and tear, the material will naturally stretch to half a size larger (over extended period of time).

Purchased as a gift for my son, he loves this pair of boots. He said they fit well (I got the size 11 when he usually wears an 11.5). Said very nice quality, and I am very happy with Zappos super fast shipping.

I bought these for my husband and he loves them. They look great with almost any pair of pants he wears. They did run on the large side, so we did have to return for a half size smaller.

These are the best boots that I ever owned, I own a suede pair, I sprayed them with water repellant to protect my color in the rain and that works great, they run half a size larger but once there break in they are the perfect fit.

I was looking for some leather chukka-style boots for ages when I came across these ones. I am a teenaged girl, but I really loved the style of these men's ones. I am a women's 8.5, so I ordered a men's 6. I was a bit apprehensive at first about how they would fit and look. But oh, my. I got them and they fit perfectly! I absolutely love them. They look so classy and I wear them all the time with pretty much everything I have. People always compliment me on them wherever I go. I bought them in sand suede and they match basically everything. A lot of people worry about their comfort and support. I have some shoes that I have problems with, but these are surprisingly comfortable and flexible. I wear them for hours at a time without any problems. I expected just a nice shoe and these exceeded my expectations by far. I'm definitely planning on buying a new pair in the near future. I would rate these with 6 stars if I could.

Bought these for my husband, who seems to love them. He says they fit true, feel great. The quality and looks are as described. He looked at many pairs before choosing these and is happy with them.

Too big, but such a great looking shoe that I'm doing an exchange. My husband has never worn this boot style before and he is really excited about it.

I read all the reviews about them running large, but I thought' "my size 12 foot is a size 12 in every brand!". They do run about a half size large for sure. The material does take a little time to break in. The soft sole is very comfortable and the craftsmanship is very good. Overall happy with this purchase

We love the shoes. They are comfy and look great. The customer service is AMAZING! The package came VERY VERY quickly. I would use Zappos for ALL my purchases if they had a larger inventory of goods.

Completely satisfied with the boots and service. As others have mentioned, it is best to order a half to a full size lower than what you usually wear. I went with a half size under and they fit perfectly.

Great boot. Just like I remember from when wearing them in the 1970's. Leather is a little stiff at first but break in relatively quickly. Will be buying more in different colors.

I love these boots. It's my second pair. They run a little big, so when ordering order one size smaller than you normally wear. The brown leather ones go good with everything you wear.

I was concerned about the temperature of my feet in these boots. I get "hot foot" about 1:00pm every day. Surprisingly they keep my feet cool and comfortable all day. I'm on my feet a lot at my job and they are very comfortable also. Lastly, I've realized they are called "desert boots"! Ideal for walking around in the desert! Which is practically where I live. Did you know that the Mojave Desert is one of the harshest environments on Earth? It's true, but I digress. Buy these boots! I will get another pair when these wear out. I'll review those also for good ol' Zappos. Thank you and good day!
