Sleek and elegant, but not too feminine with this square toe. The heel feels really solid and gives me an extra 2", which isn't bad after all. Leather is supple and comfortable right out of the box. The front ankle is baggy and doesn't hug your ankle as a "glove", but since this goes under my pants I don't care. One thing though: because of the high heel, chances are you won't be familiar with walking in these things, so the heel wear out fast! I chose rubber sole because it's more durable and versatile. First thing I did after unboxing them was to take them to cobbler's to add heel taps. Then I walked to dinner with my shiny new boots. Guess what? When I come back home, the heel taps has been mostly "eaten" up! Normally with shoes this takes 2 months. So do yourself a favor and put taps on these boots. The way the heels walk and land on the surface is awesome though. Make you feel like you're the boss. But it also wears out the sole fast.

I had to return my first purchase, as they were to big. I decided on a different style the 15548 Georgio Brutini. They are fantastic! They are comfortable, classy looking boots. I could not believe the free shipping, even for returns. I will be doing a lot more shopping at Zappos as they know how to treat customers.

I think this is a great shoe and for the sale price couldn't be beat when I made the purchase.
I found this boot to be smaller than the size listed. I originally ordered a 9. Which is my size according to a shoe scale at the local shoe store. I had to return the 9 and get a 10. I was worried the 10 might be too big but it fits very well. It is still a bit narrow for my wide foot.

Purchased for work for my son who is 26. He commented that he would have like them more if the boot went higher on the leg. We purchased 3 pairs of different style shoes but he likes these 15548's the best. No complaints with sizing or comfort.

I like these shoes a lot. They fit well but need to be broken in properly yet. I'm not used to the high cut and my leg gets chaffed when I wear them still. In time, I'm sure that they will conform to my feet and I'll be able to wear them regularly. For now, I'm still breaking them in. But they look great.

Overall I was very pleased with the purchase. The boots have a very nice style. I'm not a huge fan of square toes, but this one is rounded enough to where I like the cut. The comfort level is what I expected, and they broke in very well over just a few days.

Okay, you know that old saying "you get what you pay for?" Well such applies here. I am not saying that they are terrible, but they could be a bit tighter on the ankle especially because since they are not slip on boots. I am glad to see that there are inexpensive boots in this style, though. If need be, I will be buying another pair. As for comfort, you should buy some gels. As for style these are perfect beatle boots, if that is what you are going for. These things are all rock and perfect for any musician trying to get "that indie rocker" image. Watch out because they scuff easily and the other day (even though I am a bit crazy when I am on stage) a chunk of the sole had to be ripped off because it was dangling. So, all in all, they are a great first pair. Ample style which is great, and they have a zipper to boot! ;-P (see what i did there?) They could have a bit more comfort in them, but that is what gel's are for. If you are not looking to spend $100+ and cannot find a sweet used pair, go with these!

Nice Looking Dress Boots -
Nice looking dress boot. Even with the Cuban heels walks very comfortably. Painful for the front of the ankles until worn-in. For evening/special occasions. Would not wear every day. Prefer full height boots.

Great boots at a great price -
I have been looking for Beatle boots at a reasonable price for a long time. These boots are perfect for me. They were true to size and I will add a cushioned insert. They are a high quality particularly for the price. I will still get the 2019 when they are available in my size and maybe the brown in this style as well.

I hope you've got narrow feet!
The boots LOOK great. I believe they'd be very comfortable if my feet were shaped differently. I normally wear a size 13 medium-width men's dress shoe that fits perfectly, but these boots were too loose in the back and too dramatically tapered in the front. If they sold a wider size 12.5, I'd definitely order them.

A Great Buy -
Overall, I thought this was a quality purchase. The pictures do not do the shoe justice, and the pair looks pretty slick once you put them on. Quite a few reviews suggested to order the boot a half size larger, and unfortunately in my case I should have just stuck with my size. However the excess space is easily remedied with an extra sock, which ends up providing a little more cushion anyway. This product is certainly a dress boot; a dance floor and or carpet is this shoe's ideal surface. My first day wearing them I stepped on a small rock outside and it left a decent sized indent on the side of the sole. Ultimately I wouldn't exactly baby the shoe, but obviously the better you take care of them the longer they will last. If you can accept the fact that these boots are not exactly made for hiking, than I can assure you the $61 seems almost like a steal when you take them on the dance floor or strut down a well paved sidewalk.

Unbelievable -
Zappos has got the best customer service around the representative are so helpful. When I first got my shoes one of the zippers was stuck and I couldn't put on the shoe. I called Zappos up and they said I would get a new pair the very next day. I didn't believe what I was hearing, I was going get a new pair the next day, the next day came and to my surprise I got my shoes. I was so impressed. This shoe looks great and feels great. People are always telling me I have nice shoes and a great taste I tell them I don't have a great taste, Zappos does.

GOOD BUY.
This is an excellent looking dress boot and price is un-believable. It took a little while getting used to the heel height, about 1.5 inch, and would have liked more padding inside. Long and narrow look, would have liked it wider. Based on the reviews, I ordered half size larger and it fits good. I earlier bought (2) Florsheim boots from Zappos and prefer Florsheims, but price was a little over $150 each time. Can't say enough about Zappos site info, prices, and delivery service. Views of the shoes (boots) and customer reviews are what keeps me coming back!

Stylish dress boots. I generally wear 7.5 EE. When wide sizes are not available, I usually go up to an 8(D). Purchased these boots in 8(D) and they fit wonderfully. Unfortunately, the leather upper does not appear to be of very high quality leather. After wearing the boots for 2 min to see how they feel, noticeable creases were already starting to form along the toe box. Although the boots look great right out of the box, I suspect after repeated wearings, the creases will detract from the overall look. I'll be returning these. Nice style, but longevity of the product is uncertain. I've not had an issue with product quality. A bit pricey, but a great product. I'd consider purchasing these again.

They are ok -
They are a great shoe for the price. I was a little weary buying shoes online. I am glad I bought them, my son loves them. However, day one...he tripped and a piece of the top leather flaked off...his fault, not the shoe!

A short lived walk in style -
The boots are amazing, look amazing and in the aspect of comfort they, surprisingly to me, were quite nice to walk on.
The only thing is its duration. I used it for an event that had me walking everywhere on them. By the end of eight hours, crevices and bending marks were extremely pronounced in them.
After the prolonged use, the boots still look clean but have a ragged quality that make them seem really old.
Beautiful, but short lived.

Great fit - horrible ankle rim - hurts the area above the ankles (the fold between the foot and the front calf) like crazy when walking. Size is just right, the feel is good, but they're more of a punishment to wear. Had to return them.

I order these boots and love them, however I had to return them because they had white splotches on both of the boots when they arrived. I have no idea what it was, but it would not rub off so I immediately returned them.

These boots had no support at all! I took 10 steps in them and was already uncomfortable.

Bruised up ankle -
These shoes may look good but are not comfortable at all. I wore them once on a business trip which included 30 minutes of cab ride to the airport, 2 hours of flight and 10 minutes of walk to the Hertz car rental counter. So, I did not walk much around with them. Once I received my rental car, I drove quickly to Macy's and bought a pair of shoes to replace the boots because my ankle was hurting like crazy. After this experience, I no longer care for ankle height boots.

Giorgio Brutini's Boots -
An absolute great looking boot, and a great price, however, I wore them for a Christmas Eve and New Years Eve party this past season and my boots are looking as if I wore them for a year! Not very durable...
