Customer Reviews Steve Madden Troopa Combat Boot

Seriously the best boots, but the soles of the shoes are horrid! Like many others have said, my soles came apart and after that it just went downhill. I absolutely love the style of the boot and received many compliments while wearing them, but I wish the bottoms were a bit more sturdy.

These boots just looked shabby coming out of the box. I was looking for a casual boot, however these just looked like they were low quality so I returned these. The material seemed very cheap too. They were a bit on the small side as well.

I have been looking for a combat boot for a while. I came across the Troopa by Steve Madden, so disappointed with this boot. It looks fake and as if where made of plastic. It cost me a lot and should be made of a better quality, but its not. I love boots and have many styles, I wear them with skinny jeans and tights. I'm a student and I don't have much money, so spending this amount was a big deal for me. I will be returning them for a refund and wait to purchase a better boot, that does not look as if it was made from cheap materials. I might spend a little more, but my experience with more expensive shoes is that they tend to last longer. I have a pair of Frye boot I received as a gift 5 years ago and I still get compliments, they have held up nicely too.

Cute boots and the Cognac Leather looks just like the picture, but the zipper on one of the boots keeps opening itself at the bottom. Wore once and had to fix the zipper 4 times. Returning them.

I bought these for my wife and she loved them.The style was perfect and they fit perfectly. However the soles split in the forefoot of both boots after about 3 months. I can not recommend these boots.

Love the boots! However, the sole of both boots cracked across the bottom and aren't repairable. This has never happened to me before with any other shoes. It must be a quality defect. It shouldn't happen at this price point. Will make me think twice about purchasing this brand in the future.

I really liked this boot at first and I was happy to have found a stylish, comfortable boot I could wear to work. Unfortunately, the quality is terrible. The heel has worn down so much and so unevenly I cannot wear them anymore and I have only had them 6 months. The leather also scuffs easily. I wouldn't recommend spending money on these shoes.

I would love these boots if they weren't crafted so poorly. Aesthetically, they are awesome. Unfortunately, they are very poorly made and have begun to fall apart. I would recommend getting them immediately resoled. Some of the stitching is also pulling out, and the leather is scuffing. Great look, poor craftsmanship.

I am VERY disappointed in these boots. My husband said Steve Madden is a high quality brand, but there are several problems with these boots: - Extremely strong, terribly disgusting chemical odor: When I took them out of the box, the odor was overwhelming. Regardless of where I kept them in our apartment, they would make the whole room smelly to an extent that you could notice the smell right when you walked in. After I had them sit in a corner for almost a whole week, I decided to wear them for the first time today. They are still smelly, and - unfortunately - I cannot take them off because I am at work. The smell is so overwhelming that it actually gives me a headache. I cannot wait to take them off tonight!!! - Even though I had a perfectly normal day and did not do anything crazy, the surface of the tip of the left boot is already scratched and reveals a color that suggests that the upper is not made of leather, but some synthetic material. I also feel that my feet are sweaty, which they are not in my other leather boots. I paid the reduces price of $79.90, but that still seems way too much!!! DO NOT BUY!!!!

This boot is very low-quality. I had it for less than 6 months before the sole split in half. I liked the style of it a lot and was really disappointed. (I bought directly from Steve Madden, not Zappos, so unfortunately I wasn't able to return them.) I would highly suggest putting a little more money into something that would last years rather than months!

Cute boot, but not at all durable. Lasted 2 months before too beat up to continue wearing. Not worth the price!

These boots were awesome when I first got them. Then I wore them for 3 days and the sole cracked completely across. 3 days! Also the soles are made of a weird material that when you walk on sidewalks that have any bit of gravel or rocks or debris, they get stuck to the soles so you have to pick them out so as not to slip/scratch wood floors!

I love the look but my usual size felt too tight and didn’t fit well
