Customer Reviews Minnetonka Calf Hi 3-Layer Fringe Boot

I have these in brown suede, and I absolutely love them. There is no arch support, so I had to add an orthopedic insert. The boots are a bit on the big side by half a size. I typically wear a size nine, and size nine has a little wiggle room in these Minnetonkas. I wear these with skinny jeans or leggings and consider them an Ugg alternative without the extra warmth. I get compliments on them all the time, usually from little girls. My kids love the sound the fringe makes when I walk. Zappos is absolutely fabulous to work with. Easy ordering. Prices are competitive. Easy returns if they don't fit.

These boots look great, are a bit narrow, but are fun. Sealed them to waterproof and now wear them anytime.

Great looking boots but they run very small. I ordered for my daughter 2 sizes up like some recommended and still was too small. She wears a 4.5 and a 7 in womens was too small. Very narrow as well.

I love these boots! At first they are snug but after a few wears they fit great. I Have pretty narrow feet and these were snug in the width.

Adorable boots! The calf is a little small and slightly hard to tuck pants in. Maybe it will be easier in time. Otherwise, cute!

I love these boots! Really cute with tights and dresses! Zappos was awesome! I needed them quick and said I'd pay for faster shipping, then they overnighted them at their cost! What the heck - how awesome is that! The boot is a bit narrow, but maybe I just have wide feet.

I love the look of these boots. My first time trying them on, however, was extremely difficult. They are very tight around the calves. After a few times wearing them they tend to stretch a little, so it becomes easier to put them on.

Normally I'm a size 7, but this size 7 shoe was too short, too narrow and too tight around my calf. I love the style, so I'll try a larger size.

I wanted to love these. Too small and couldn't get the next size up. Bummer

These are not cozy and comfortable as they appear. I went 1/2 size up because they did not offer 1/2 sizes, but the toe is still narrow. They are unlined. They just don't feel like they look.

I so wanted these boots to fit so after reading all the reviews, bought a full size larger than normal. Alas, my foot wouldn't even slide into the boot. I also didn't take note that there is no zipper. They are so adorable and I love the flexible sole but I'll be returning them with a sad, sad face.

Love Zappos, don't shop anywhere else but just be aware that these adorable boots run a little narrow. Sadly had to return them.

It's a cute boot but very tricky to get on and nearly impossible to get off. And the dye in the boot will stain all of your socks.

I wanted to love these boots so much. I have been back and forth with exchanging them for different sizes and when I settled with a size 7, that I thought would be good. However, they still rub like crazy against my pinky toe and it hurts. Unfortunately, I had to make the major decision to return them today. I am sad that they could not work because the boots are adorable and I wanted them so badly to fit!

I love the look of these boots. They are so cute and adorable but run a full size small. I was first apprehensive about the color but it's fantastic. I hate to return. No arch support. I wish it was more common to find shoes with it than without.

I love the look of these boots but have to say they have no comfort at all. The first time I wore them, I got blisters on the outsides of my little toes within an hour. I was hoping they would be as comfy as all of my other Minnetonka but sadly they are not. There is no lining or support. But b/c they are so cute, I will wear them.

These boots are very cute, however, they are very narrow at the top which means if you have medium to large calfs they will not fit. The same style from last year has small at the top, but not nearly as small as they are this year. I love my pair from last year and even though they were tight at the top they stretched enough for me to wear. I was hoping to get another color this year. But I cannot even get this year's on the top is so narrow. I have purchased a stretcher to see if I can stretch it out enough to wear them. I sure hope so.

I am petite with slim legs/calves and these boots hit me oddly in the calf area. They were mid-calf on my already-not-so-long legs, and made my legs look even shorter than they are. I know, I know, the description says 'Calf-hi', but I needed to see these boots in person to know what exactly that meant in this brand. The very top of the boot was uncomfortably snug on my small calves but the ankle area was way too big. The insole was not nearly as comfortable as that of the knee-high, lace-up, fringe boot (the most comfortable shoe I have EVER worn). These are cute boots, but they are not going to work for my wardrobe needs. Fortunately, Zappos provides AMAZING customer service, so the return will be hassle-free.

I have wanted these boots literally for years! I wanted to try them on in store tho because I have a bit of a wider more muscular calf. For starters they're just as beautiful as I've always thought they were. I always wear an 8.5 unfortunately Minnetonka only comes in whole sizes so I went a size up due to reviews. I anticipated a little extra wiggle room in the toe base and that I would have to wear the calf a little slouchy until they stretched to fit since they're leather/suede. They arrive and are a gorgeous light grey just as I imagined, but they look awfully small. So I go to try them on and cannot even get my foot through the shaft of the boot. I am devastated but do not want to give up on them so I go through the speedy exchange process and order a size 10, 1.5 sizes larger then I normally wear, although I must admit I wasn't too optimistic. The size 10 arrives and they fit like a glove a little too much wiggle room in the toe but could easily be fixed with some thick socks, which is unfortunate cause I don't want to always wear them with thick socks for example in the middle of summer. Also I was a bit disappointed the size 10 was much much darker, on the box the 9 said light grey suede and the 10 said med grey suede, even though that wasn't a choice while ordering, just plain grey, I kept the 10's in the darker color cause I was concerned if I exchanged them again I wouldn't recieve the light grey anyway so I stuck with what fit. There are no arch support in these and it's exactly what I anticipated, they are moccasins people, not hiking boots, I've owned plenty of mocs and they never have support and its never a complaint because I west them for their style not their comfort, beauty is pain. Overall awesome boot, super whack sizing but once you find what size you are it rocks. Still upset about the color but I haven't worn them out and about yet so I'm still considering exchanging. These are a must have for all fashionistas.

This shoe is so cute and very stylish and my hopes were high but right out of the box I could tell they weren't going to work. The shoe itself is extremely narrow. I have a fairly standard foot width and these were crazy narrow and 1/2 size too small. Order up a half size and if you have a wider foot, skip this shoe.

I am 5'1 112 lbs with a 12.5 inch calf. These strangled my calf. I seriously couldnt even pull them up over skinny jeans without pain. Tried them on with leggings, still to tight. I tried on several other pairs in a retail store, the same problem. I dont understand who these fit. I called Minnatonka, and they admited to others calling due to the same problem. Very dissapointed. I wanted the real deal. I am going to have to by a cheap look alike.

I loved these boots, but I must be in between sizes. One size was too small and the next size up was too big. And then both sizes were too small around my leg. But the shoes are very well made and super cute - just not the right shoes for me!

It was impossible to get them on without a zipper !

Fit is not very good since they only offer full sizes. I normally wear a 7.5 and these fit a little too big. Also the sole is kind of flimsy and does not give any kind of cushioned support.

These run great for a skinny legged person. My granddaughter who is 12 and weighs around 100 pounds cannot even pull them up. There is no zipper to help the process.
