These are gorgeous leather! When I first got these I really had a hard time getting them on. I found if you turn them down half way and then pull them on its easier and it gets easier the more you were them. I agree that they need a zipper. I have a larger athletic calf and they are a great fit. I would have given them an overall 5 if not for the initial problem getting them on. I thought I would have to return them, but worked with the issue and now love them.

I adore these boots! the color is amazing, subtle and sophisticated (the blue/black combo really works) and the suede is buttery, and like all Stuart Weitzmans, extremely well made and totally worth the investment. But sadly they will have to go back because without a zip, they are just too much of a struggle to get in and out of (particularly with even a 'skinny' jean). So sad.

I received the boots and thought they were gorgeous leather. I had a really hard time getting them on the first time and thought I would just send them back. Once I did get them on the foot area was very comfortable, so I just thought Id try the on and off a couple of more times. By the third time, they were going on easier and so I wore them out and LOVE them. A tip is to fold them half way down and then flip up for over the knee.I do think they should have a zipper somewhere. All the way down would be super.I usually wear an 8-8/12 in boots. The 8 was perfect. I would give them 5 stars, except for the on and off.

These boots are beautiful and comfortable. The leather is so soft. I am petite and have less than a 12" calf circumference, and the boots fit my legs beautifully. However, I normally wear a size 5 in boots, but even with thick socks, the size 5 felt way too big and loose on my feet. It also looked like my feet were really long and out of proportion with my body. I think a size 4½ would still be too big, but I imagine a size 4 would be too small. I will have to update my review after I try another size.

The fit is very unflattering. I have long legs but they're shapely. I'm 5'9 and athletic, so most boots at calf height are a toss up. These do fit to size - if I'm being honest, the toe has more room than I'd expected- but the issue is getting them on and off. It feels like peeling off a second layer of skin! Getting them on takes some real muscle. The fit around the ankles is loose, and when I look at pics online they are pretty slouchy. I thought they'd be more fitted but they're one of the only flat shoes I own, so I'm keeping them to wear day to day. If cost is an issue though I would not recommend these as a starter splurge.

I have owned a pair of SW boots like this some years ago, but the Canadian winter ate them up, or rather the salt did. I loved my previous pair so was dying to get another but what I didn't realize is that these ones don't have a zipper on the inside. They otherwise fit great and are supper comfy but I don't think I'd be able to wear them over skinny jeans or anything other than tights. They are a bit though to pull on and I am always so worried about wrinkling the beautiful leather.

I love the colour - navy blue - and ordinarily I don't have to "break in" my SW boots, but while they felt okay in-store, when I wore them at work for the day, one side really rubbed my ankle bone. This probably has to do with one side being a half-size smaller than the other side. I've tried adding an insole, but think it might need an insole-and-a-half and possiby thicker socks and a few more wears to get a better feel.

I own this boot in other colors and so wanted to own the blue ones, but I could not get my foot past the ankle of the shaft. I am so disappointed!

These weren’t awful but they weren’t amazing either. I expected something more from a very pricey boot. They also arrived looking like I was at least the tenth person to try these on. I think each person had the same feeling about the boot. I have thin but muscular legs and I felt these would eventually look scrunched on my legs.

Guys... yes these boots are nice but they are just black OTK boots, there is nothing special about them worth the price tag. Also, the top of the toe in the suede ones scuff super easily, I was literally wearing them less than an hour when the first one scuffed. Not worth the price

These boots look beautiful on other people. I had a very, very hard time getting them on, and when i did, they were too narrow on my calf. They would've looked great with dresses, but there was no chance i'd be able to wear them with jeans. Need a lot better fit and more options in order to spend this much money on a boot.

Beautiful shoe. But even in wide I couldn’t get them on my foot. They are very narrow.

Tough to get my foot in, but finally did (would have helped to have more “slippery” socks on). However, the heel is too tight/narrow, and I’m sure I’d get blisters, so will have to return these. The size of the boot is otherwise good. The calf is very fitted, but in a good way.

Very stylish. Based on previous reviews, I chose the suede for versatility and reduce the wrinkling at the ankles. 8W felt perfect on my feet. But there is a strip of leather that rubbed the skin at the back of the ankle. I’m afraid it will blister. I have to return these boots.

Oh no oh no. The leather is very beautiful the fit is great but the back of the boat is fabric. It doesn't say that anywhere in the description I am so disappointed I'm sending them back.

I loved to love these boots... but I have to say they did not look good on my short legs... I know I have naturally wide feet and low ankles, the leather is so soft and lux on these boots, so it really wrinkles around my ankles and it is not that flattering on me... size wise I usually am a 6, and 5.5 fits me like a glove, might be too tight with socks so I go true to your size.

Wish these boots were knee high. Loved everything about them except the height of the shaft. I'm 5'3" and it was just too long for my calf. Hope next season, Stuart Weitzman makes them in the lower shaft length.

This boot is simply stunning. but very difficult to get on. After sweating and missing 2 buses, I finally got it on. the footbed felt wonderful, but for the cost it's way too much work to get them on.

Just received these and already decided they must go back. I tried them in my usual size and a half size larger hoping they would be easy to pull on and off. Just not the case for me - too much effort. Too bad. They are pretty boots.

These are not the same boots Stuart Weitzman used to make. The leather is no longer buttery soft. They are stiff and uncomfortable on my foot.
Disappointed.
Zappos service is great, though.

I have been wearing my original 50/50 for over 12 years and they have been terrific. Over the years, they've been repaired due to excessive wear and now it's time to replace this investment piece. I went to the store yesterday and was shocked at the changes SW has made to their classic 50/50. I was told they had "evolved". First, they are now bigger, not true to size. I had to try a 1/2 size smaller than my original pair. They now gap at the ankle, rather than snuggly fit your leg, so they look "frumpy", not sleek as they did before. WHY, SW, did you mess with perfection?? I'm really disappointed and did not opt to replace my ancient 50/50s. Hopefully I can get them refurbished, again, for at least one more season and HOPEFULLY, you will come to your senses!

These came in an unmarked box without tissue. Z's says that they buy directly from SW, but these had a wedge heel rather than the heel shown and the box wasn't a SW box. Also, fit very loose in the calf (13.5" max needed).
