Customer Reviews EMU Australia Alba

Wow amazing! I just ordered these shoes late yesterday and got them today before 1 p.m. I am impressed. The shoes are exactly what I was looking for. I wasn't sure what size to order. I am normally a 7-7.5 depending on the cut of the shoe and have wide feet. Most of the reviews suggested ordering down a size, but I went with my intuition and ordered a 7 instead of a 6. I'm glad that I did. The shoe fits my foot perfectly with no socks. The color grey is not too light or too dark. I like the idea that the sheepskin is waterproof unlike the Uggs. They look great rolled up or down. You can't go wrong with these boots. Thank you Zappos for great delivery.

The sizing chart Zappos provided leaves a lot to be desired. It says the boots use European sizing, so based on the chart I ordered a 6. It was just a tad too small. My toes were squished up right against the toe of the boot. Forget about wearing socks! I loved the feeling of the wool against my toes so I returned the boots and got a size 7, which is my normal US size. The 7s are just a little big, but I like my slipper boots roomy. In fact, now that I'm in my 3rd trimester, these are truly the most comfortable shoes I own! The other reason I give them a 4 overall, is because I really did not want to buy a product made in China. I did a ton of research and I was led to believe, by EMU's website, that their products are the Genuine Australian sheepskin boot. Imagine my surprise when the boots arrived at my house, and the box said "Made in China" on it! I guess no one actually makes their sheepskin boots in Australia any more; or if they do, you practically have to fly to the Australian outback to track them down on the actual sheep ranch. I ended up keeping these because they feel so great and they are obviously a high quality product worth every cent; I just wish EMU wasn't quite so cagey about the country of manufacture on their website.

Well made boots! Very comfortable and stylish! I an an size 5.5 and I got a size 5 as it does not come in half sizes. Great for winter and it is so light in weight compared with other brands like Ugg.

I love, love, love these boots! Very cute, warm and comfortable. I usually wear a size 8.5, and I ordered these in a size 8, and they fit perfectly, even with socks. Since they only come in whole sizes, they would definitely had been too big.

Wanted to love these but... The style is really cute and the sheepskin is plush (and I do love that you can replace the insoles. Wish the "other brand" manufacturer would take the hint re the classics), but I had too much heel slippage, possibly because the instep is less snug-fitting than my "other brand" boots. Also, the soles felt very stiff, which made these boots really clunky to walk in. I wear an 8 to 8-1/2 so I ordered an 8 and they felt just a teeny bit too snug at the toes; however, a 9 would have been entirely too large, especially with the heel slippage issue. As always, Zappos is wonderful...fastest shipping around and easy returns.

I really wanted to like these. I have Uggs in the classic short and they are great but slippery in Colorado snow. These Emus seem to have a better sole for ice and snow. The problem is that because I would wear them without socks I sized down like I normally would with Uggs (I wear a 9 shoe so I ordered an 8) and they fit great except for my heels which slipped when I'd walk. I don't have this problem with Uggs. I then ordered a 7 to see if that would help and while they are tighter, my heels still slip. I love the mushroom color, but I think I'm going to have to return them.

I absolutely love these boots. They are very comfortable, slightly generously sized, but not sloppy. They are water resistant, so if you stop in slush, you survive. They look great and feel even better. I am totally happy with them!

These are awesome, comfortable, and unbelievably warm! I could not decide between these and the other brand and when I saw these, I felt instantaneously in love! I have received buckets of compliments - the versatility of the boot to roll low or have them high. Now I am looking for my next pair!

I love these EMU boots! They have better arch support than I was expecting and they are just so cute with the leather details in the back! I received them in two days and was so excited! I wear a 9 1/2 and purchased a 9 and they fit perfectly! Thanks Zappos!

These boots are wonderful! Very warm and comfortable. Fit very well to size and due to the warmth, I often wear them barefooted!

I love these boots. I've had Uggs for over 10 years, but I tried these because I liked the style. They are very comfortable and I think they look great on.

I love EMUs. I already have a pair similar to this in black. They are so comfortable. I wear them in all seasons except when it is hot. I can slip them on without socks and they have never smelled bad.

Thank you Emu for a stylish, super warm boot. Living in Chicago can assure cold feet during our winters. These Emus are warmer than my Uggs, and provide a moderate arch and heel support. I wear a 7 1/2-ordered a 7 - good fit. Emus slipped on easily despite my high instep that causes struggles with Uggs. Heel space is a little wider, but not a deterrent. Shipping as always was tops!

I have two pairs of these boots. One in gray bought at a ridiculous discount from another, ahem, site and this pair purchased first from Zappos. Love them! They are comfortable and suitable for the mild winter we are having this year. The styling sets them apart from the teenage Ugg crowd and I have to say I love saying no, they aren't Uggs. One slight issue with the gray pair, some of the stitching came loose, but I am sure my shoe guy can fix it right up. I wear these with thin socks because they are less roomy than you would imagine and my feet would cook otherwise.

My girlfriend absolutely loves her EMUs! She had a pair of Uggs prior to this, but likes the EMUs even more! She says the fleece lining and overall fit are better for her narrow feet. The price was great and Zappos.com's prompt shipping was superb!

These boots are absolutely the best snuggly boots I have owned. I have several pair of Uggs; but really prefer the fit, style, feeling and price of these Emus. They feel like walking on a cloud that surrounds my whole foot! I wear a size 9 and these size 9's fit perfectly.

They are like wearing the most comfy pair of slipper ever! I went up 1/2 size because of the sheepskin lining. They are very warm and very comfortable. They are UGG like, but I think have a bit more flair.

I bought these for my 16 year old daughter. She loves them! She has gotten compliments from complete stranger because they are so cute. The inside is super cozy, too.

Love them. I ordered them according to the size I would usually wear. At first I thought they were too small but after wearing them for a couple hours they felt great. They look great up or folded down depending on your outfit.

Keeps my feet warm! Wore them outside without socks (in a MN winter) and my feet stayed warm. Comfortable to wear for short periods of time. Like the style:) I usually wear 6/6½ dress shoe and a 6½/7 boot or running shoe. I tried the 7 and 6 and kept the 6; it is roomy with bare feet and fitted with socks.

Albas rock! Not only are they very stylish, they keep toes amazingly toasty! The quality is top notch.

These boots are amazingly comfortable and warm. True to size. Very cute rolled over or straight up.

In stock and fast delivery from Zappos. I gave comfort a 4, due to lack of arch support. There is room for my supports inside, they look good, and feel good. I wear size 8 and ordered 9. Plenty of room along with comfort. Love my EMU'S

Fabulous boots! I constantly get complements, and they are amazingly comfortable and warm. Worth every penny.

I love these boots! I'm usually a big Uggs fan, but I decided to try these out. I got the gray and I love the color. They go with pretty much everything. They look cute folded down, or up. The fleece inside is very plush. They feel just as comfortable as my Uggs. I'm very happy with these!
