Customer Reviews SeaVees 12/67 3 Eye Chukka

As stated on the SeaVees website - you need to order one full size larger in this shoe. Wish that was more clear on here before ordering, but trying out the 13 now to see if it will work. True sand color. Comes with two sets of laces, so don't be scared by the coral ones.

Handsome boots but don't even think about ordering these if you have even a slightly wide foot. Leather is also very rigid which is good and bad. I would recommend these shoes for people with narrow feet.

Size is difficult with these shoes, the advice says to size up, which I did. I wear a 10, so I ordered 10.5. Turned out way too roomy. When tight enough to not slip in the heels, the laces pulled the two sides all the way together in the front. No room for any kind of stretch. I reordered a 10 and ended up keeping them, even though they are too tight I think he toes. Not too short, too low in the toes. It's a weird fit. They look great and are well made, but I've ordered a shoe stretcher to give me some vertical room in the toes. I hope it works, the toes are low and reinforced to stay that way. I think that it's part of the style.

I bought these for a wedding I was in. They are super comfortable. They look great too, I got quite a few compliments on them.

Ordered these a few weeks ago and they are great. They are really comfortable and form to my feet well. I will advise you not to try to put any kind of wax on them because the color will significantly darken.

TOO BIG! My boyfriend usually wears a size 11 and he could barely squeeze his feet in these (he's thinking he needs one size larger).

These are great shoes, period. They look great with jeans, but can easily be dressed up with trousers, chinos, khakis, etc. The sole is cushiony and absorbent, but feels very lightweight -- some similar styles can make you aware of their weight at all times. The stitching and leather are high quality, and although it's a minor feature, the SeaVees laces provide a nice accent against those colors. They are a little more expensive than other chukkas out there, but I'm glad I spent the money, and love that they come in a variety of styles. Tips on buying: take advantage of Zappos return policies. For a couple reasons, I tried three pairs before settling on one. The first reason was fit; these shoes run small -- I normally wear 10.5 but ended with an 11. Even with the half-size up, they were a pretty snug initially but broke in nicely after a week or two (something else to keep in mind). The second reason was look, specifically the Cigar Pull Up style. In person, they have a much darker, almost weathered look to them, and I've noticed other reviews say the same. For what it's worth, the Brass Waxed Leather look very true to the pictures.

This is a well made and high quality shoe. I had to return my original order for a size larger which was unusual for me. Zappos made the return and exchange a snap.

The boots have been really good so far. They definitely run small. I had to reorder 2x before settling on a full size larger than I normally wear. They still started tight but are starting to break in. They look great. I'm slightly concerned at the speed at which the sole is wearing out but so far still good.

The service was fantastic. I received my shoes right away with no problems whatsoever. Zappos does good work. The shoes themselves are wonderful. These chukkas did take a few days to break in (during which they caused minimal rubbing on my heels). However, once they were broken in, they quickly became my favorite pair of shoes. These are so comfortable, sometimes I even forget I'm wearing them. Get a pair and you won't regret it, trust me.

I really wanted to like the shoes. They look great. However, the fit is a problem. I usually wear size 9, regular width. Based on reviews, I knew this shoe runs small, so I ordered 9.5. That fit, but was a little too snug in the toes, and I could feel the middle seam on the inside (the vertical one from the arch up) -- more than would be comfortable. I thought that maybe a half size up was not enough and exchanged for size 10. That felt too big, yet I could still feel that seam. I get the need to wear the shoes in...but this is too much. For a shoe that's this price, I expected much better fit. Returned, disappointed.

I have looked at and tried on many chukkas. Seavees sees to have the edge on quality and comfort, in my opinion. Their sizes are some times a struggle...but if you wear around the home to check the size, as you know, Zappos makes is simple to exchange. I had to go from a 9.5. to a 10...and also, the suedes seem to come soft to the with such out of the gate comfort, which the leathers take just a day or so breaking in but not that painful breaking either...just enough time to allow the leather to conform to your feet. Their nice mix of suedes and leathers allow one to get a pair for nicer days in suede and wetter days in leather...and nice color selection. Thanks Seavees, you get better every year...and thanks for widening room in the shoes. And Zappos words cannot express how great you and your team have been to be a so many decision/change points...your staff is always upbeat, friendly and eager to help, without exception. Thanks Zappos!

I have always had a special attachment for Seavees. However, in the past the shoes, for me now, seemed to always run narrow. These chukkas have plenty of width and the quality is way beyond my expectations. The did, for me, run one half size small. In other words, where I normally wear a 9.5, a 10 worked just fine for me. The suedes are more soft and comfortable than most comparables, in my opinion anyway. If yor're looking for a comfortable pr of chukkas I highly recommend these. And they have 'leather' options, as well as suede. Nice job Seavees and, as is always the case, superb and just unbeatable service by the whole Zappos team and process. Thanks so much!

I had high hopes for these boots given the price and almost all of what you read is true. They are a stylish pair that will do you right if given the opportunity. However, I received mine and instantly noticed they were a half to a full size too small. With the soft rubber soles I knew it was over for returns once worn off of carpet. I trusted the reviews that said the leather would stretch to fit your foot perfectly like a glove and I regretfully believed it and had some nights with sore feet to attribute to it. I even took them to a professional shoe repair place who put inserts in them to make it better, all to no avail. So now I have a pair of very expensive boots that I cannot wear comfortably. Go at least half a size up and if you have doubts when you receive them at all send them back.

Buy these shoes! BUY THESE SHOES! I was a little skeptical about the price at first and if these shoes would be worth it... bottom line: yes, they are! The leather is soft, doesn't hurt your ankles and is of excellent quality. The stitching looks sharp and the shoes are very stylish... but the main reason to buy these shoes is that they are insanely comfortable. They're my go-to shoes now!

These are great looking shoes. I had to return an 8½ for a 9, which still felt a little tight. Hopefully they will break in a little. Four stars because I think they are slightly overpriced.

Great looking shoe. I should have checked the reviews more carefully, though; I needed to exchange for a larger size, and I could have skipped that step if I'd paid attention!

I've purchased 8 pairs of shoes from Zappos and this is by far my favorite shoe. I've gotten a ton of compliments so that obviously confirms how attractive it looks (especially with jeans). The leather is supple and the comfort is unsurpassed. The only problem is that it runs a half size small. I'm an 8.5 with every shoe and had to order a 9 for this shoe to fit comfortably.

Very nice boot. Look great with jeans. I am a 9.5 in basically every shoe I own and the 9.5 ran a bit small -- sent back for a 10.

Great boot! Good looking with jeans or a night out. Very comfortable. Purchased in brown leather.

Great shoes! I have always worn Doc Marten's as my casual shoe but recently noticed a decline in quality, which prompted my search for a better shoe and I found it. The leather uppers are thick enough to warrant the price yet they are soft and pliable which makes them feel as if they are already broken in. These boots felt comfortable right out of the box and I wear them several times a week. I am happy with SeaVees and Zappos.

Nice looking shoes, durable leather. Fit was pretty wide though, and there is virtually no arch support. Sole is kind of soft gummy rubber seems like it would wear down pretty quickly.

Loved these the moment I put them on. Comfortable and a great look. Was eyeing the John Varvatos chukkah, however, it was impossible to get into them if you have high arches. No problems here.

I bought these for my boyfriend. He loves them, and they look great. He says they are very comfortable, "They feel like slippers, they form to my foot." They are absolutely nice enough for both business casual and casual dress.
