What a fantastic boot. I took the advice of some other reviewers and ordered this boot a half size bigger than my normal size -- good call. It’s a gorgeous snug fit with a roomy toe area. It’s crazy warm (love the shearling lining!) and comfy in slushy snowy weather. Although at first I hesitated on the price, it is clear that with this brand you get what you pay for! Oh Canada!

These boots are AWESOME. I searched and searched to find a warm, waterproof boot that I could wear any and everywhere, and this IS the one. I’m actually afraid I might wear them out because I ALWAYS want to wear them. But they are very well made and super comfortable and don’t look like your typical SNOW boot. I don’t have big calves, so many of the reviews said to buy a size up. I bought my actual size and they fit perfect. I do not wear them with socks. I spray them occasionally with sheepskin refresher though I do not feel I sweat in them. My feet are perfectly warm, comfy, and I can shovel snow, run with my kids, or look chic out and about town with jeans or nice pants (I don’t wear skirts when it’s that cold). I LOVE THEM!! Worth every penny if you like to stay warm and stylish!

This is another great boot from La Canadienne. I own two other pairs. I used these in very heavy snow and in very cold weather. (6 degrees F). They are very comfortable, and the great thing is you don’t need heavy socks. The shearling lining keeps you warm and cozy without feeling bulky. They are lightweight a very cool looking. I normally wear a size 7.5 and had to go up a half a size.

I love these boots! They run a little narrow, which is perfect for me, but if you have wide feet, they might feel tight. These are the boots I have been looking for for years, waterproof leather, sophisticated, yet casual look, and the sheepskin lining is warm and awesome! I bought a 2nd pair for my sister!

The boots are extremely comfortable. I have bunion problems and the toe shape works really well with this foot issue. I did find the medium just a little tight at first at my bunion point, but would not recommend going to a wide because once "broken in", they might be too big. I can wear them and walk for a long period of time. The cushioning is fantastic. They are warm. They withstand any weather beautifully. They can be worn with pants or a skirt. They are casual stylish; not fancy stylish. I have another pair of Canadienne suede and higher for that - also very comfortable. I highly recommend these boots!

I researched many boots before deciding on the La Canadienne Alexa. My criteria were that the boot be warm, waterproof, non-slip, heel no higher than 1-1/2 to 2 inches, versatile style, easy on and off with full zipper so I could tuck into jeans; made in Canada, U.S.A., or Europe, and stand up to daily wear. I'm very pleased with the Alexa. It meets all criteria (except that it did leak slightly at zipper when I stepped into an deep, icy puddle of water) and has a nice, functional, European look. It's roomy in the toebox and feels comfortable and stable. I agree with other reviewers who point out its narrow circumference around the calf (and I'm of average build). It is a snug-fitting boot, and though it's a good fit, in hindsight, it would have been good to have tried a half-size larger to compare.

The boots are really warm and comfortable. I first ordered a B width but found they ran narrow. The wide width was perfect. Returning the original boots was a breeze. I really liked the confirmation I was sent that they had received my return. This was my first dealing with Zappos and a very positive one.

The boots are beautiful! Nice leather exterior, soft fur interior. I bought a size 8.5, as that is what I normally wear. My feet are not wide, but the boots tend to be a big tight. Will need to be worn with very thin socks. They keep your feet super warm in all types of weather. Great winter boot! This was the first time I\'ve ever spent that kind of money on a pair of shoes, but I do believe it was well worth it as they are made to last.

Repeat Buyer! I rated this boot 4 stars in an earlier review. But now, after surviving a frigid week on the east coast, and still having warm, toasty toes, I am changing my rating to a 5, and I ordered another pair of Alexa in black. As it turns out, clunky is good in the snow, ice, and wind! This boot is very well-made, and should last a good ten years or more. Now, if only the rest of my body could be as warm as my feet!

This is a great boot. It seems to be very well made, and very warm. The only complaint that I have is that it is very snug, possibly due to the lining, which will probably flatten out as I wear it more. The length and width are fine but I did order a 1/2 size up from what I usually wear.

These boots are fabulous. They look great with jeans and skirts. They are incredibly warm, and I love the detailed boxy stitching, square toe and lug sole. They can easily be dressed up or down. I have small calves and often have trouble finding boots which fit without a gap, but these do. If you have larger calves they may be too snug.

Love this boot -
I love this boot. It is warm, stylish, and comfortable and has a thick sole with great traction. Lots of toe room to wiggle them, which is important in extreme cold. It seems very well made and the leather is high quality. I should be able to wear it many winters. I am rarely this pleased with footwear.

The shoe is very cute and pretty comfortable. I ordered a half size up and am debating if I should return them and get my normal size. However, I like my shoes to fit very closely and these are a little loose for a slip on. I could probably fix it with an insole. If they had a strap I wouldn't think about a return. The thing is that if they stretch more as I wear them I might end up in trouble. Needless to say for a cheap casual work shoe it's a good buy.

Alexa Boot is Fabulous -
This boot epitomizes comfort, style, and warmth and far exceeds my expectations. Soft lush leather and cushiony sheer skin makes this a great all-day boot with all day comfort. I want another pair in brown.

Warm and dry -
This boot is awesome for cold, wet winters! These boots keep my feet so warm in cold Wisconsin winters, its all I wear! It's not the most stylish and the shaft is too narrow to tuck jeans in, but when your feet are warm -who cares?

Very nice boot -
These are very warm and attractive. The slight flare of the sole gives them a slight edge and keeps them from looking bland. I ordered a half-size larger than usual and find it to be a good fit. If they made this same boot in a knee-high style, I would drop another bundle of $ on those.

Best Winter Boot!
I bought this boot for a winter trip to Quebec City. I wanted a boot that would be warm, waterproof, and have good traction on snow and ice, and would also be stylish enough to go to dinner. The Alexa met all these criteria and was better than I could have imagined. The shearling lining makes it super warm. It is an extremely comfortable boot, and felt great right from the start. I have a fairly narrow foot and calf and usually wear a size 8, but I found that the 7.5 fit better. They felt very snug at first, but the shearling and leather loosen up after wearing them a short time. And because the shearling lining is so warm, there's no need to wear heavy socks or double up. They feel great without socks too. I live in Boston so I'll get plenty of wear from these boots next winter.

Your best choice for the next 5 or more years!!!
I bought this I think in 2004 or 2005 and still wear them with a great pleasure. Warm, comfortable from the first try. They look the same now, even though I bought them while ago. I love this worth money boots!

They are perfect! Very warm and comfortable. I was worried that they would not be comfortable with my orthotic but they fit fine.

31!
Even though there are 30 previous reviews of these fantastic boots, I just had to put in my two cents. These boots are perfect. They are beautifully made, warm, comfortable, and very cute. I wear them with everything. The shearling lining is very high quality and surrounds the leg and foot of the shoe. I highly recommend these boots!

Handsome and a great fit -
These are terrific boots. They are stylish enough to wear to work, and comfortable enough to walk in. Also, I have slender calves and these boots provide the "snuggle factor" all the way up my calves. My only hesitation in recommending them is that the arch support is not good.

Yummy!
These boots are great. Comfy, warm, and definitely waterproof. I was looking for a pair to wear to work--Merrells and Uggs are too sloppy. These are casual, but definitely groovy.

Cozy and warm -
These boots fit me well and are very comfortable. They keep your feet extremely warm... so if it isn't cold out you might be too warm. The insides of boots are very plush and luxurious. They look good w/ pants, capris or gauchos.

These are the best boots I've ever bought. They are gorgeous, super comfortable, and waterproof. I walk about 3 miles a day in them throughout Brooklyn and Manhattan. I wish they came in more colors and I wish I had the money to purchase more of them :-)
