Customer Reviews Minnetonka Concho/Feather Side Zip Boot

They turned out to be much more narrow and longer than what I was expecting making my foot look kind of awkward. Nice enough to keep but I probably wouldn't have bought the if I were at a store.

Absolutely adorable! They are exactly what I wanted. Perfect with skinny jeans, cut-offs, maybe even a casual skirt. The concho/feather is a nice detail. One thing, though, these run very narrow (at least when you first put them on... Perhaps the suede will relax over time). Something to think about when you order.

I love these little boots. I am surprised to say that they really do go with anything. I have seen them with maxi skirts, pants, crop pants, shorts, shorter skirts, etc. They are super comfortable as well. They felt a bit narrow on my feet, but I imagine it is due to the nature of how these are made.

As always, great service, speedy delivery! My daughter loves these boots, she wears them all the time. But the zipper falls down, and she said its annoying. Makes me wish we had bought the pull on Minnetonka Moc/boot. She has to add an orthotic (flat footed).

I love the look of these shoes but it has a fit that is different than most other shoes I wear. They are rather narrow for a medium width, and the toe extended 1" to 1.5" beyond the edge of my toe. I really wanted to like these shoes but they did not fit me well.

Runs narrow

This. Style is super narrow!

These moccasins were like a foot hug - so incredibly comfy!! They are extremely narrow, & I have narrow feet. But the seam on the toe was flat, so no rubbing or blisters. No arch support, like walking in bare feet, which is what I prefer. These look cute with leggings or under bootcut jeans. The fatal flaw which caused me to return them, is like previous reviews, the darn zippers would not stay up. The shoes fit snuggly enough that I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't looked down, they didn't flop or feel loose. But since I was planning on wearing these in summer with capris & skirts, I would feel silly walking around with one shoe half unzipped. Minnetonka needs to add a button/loop or hook/eye closure to help keep the zippers up. Disappointing, because these are THE most comfortable shoes I have ever worn.

Super cute, and "close to the earth", but I just need more support. Ok, for hanging around if you are sitting, but not good for walking any distances at all. I felt fatigued. Gave them away to a super thin girl. Maybe she won't mind.

I really love this brand, and in moccasins they are so comfortable and perfect. But I ordered a size 10 and they become very long and narrow at the toe, unlike in their moccasins. Sadly I have to return these because they are squeezing my toes and the seam is irritating the top of my toe. I might try a size bigger, though in most shoes I'm a 9.5, so I can't imagine that an 11 will fit.

I was very happy when I got the boots, but it's not as comfy as I thought it would be. I'm giving it some time, because I love Minnetonka shoes.

These are such cute booties but are strangely narrow and long. The leather does stretch but in my normal size these looked like elf shoes since there was about an extra size worth of room at the toe. The leather cord on the zipper of the shoe ripped off the first time I zipped them up so I am returning them.

The hi-top back zip Minnetonka boot was significantly more comfy. The back heel seam was weirdly stiff and rigid on the pair I got, and the toe somehow less flattering (look carefully at the top view - it's kind of long and square beyond the toes). I kept the hi-top ones instead.

Taking these out of the box I was really excited, but putting them on was a little disappointing. I'm not saying they weren't cute -- they were -- although they weren't exactly what I was hoping for in that regard also. Mainly they were too narrow. My feet are not really wide, but these were squeezing my feet too much. I think that if I had been totally stoked on the look of them on my feet, then I would have put up with the narrowness because I'm sure the leather would have stretched to my foot with some time.

I tried these and the Minnetonka Hi-Top Back Zip Boots, and found these to be much narrower and less comfortable than the Hi-Top Back Zip ones. I have slightly wider feet and ordered a half size up in both. The Hi-Top was comfy, but the Concho/Feather pinched awkwardly and hurt as soon as I put them on. I liked that the height looked shorter, but in person, they are a bit too short---I think the height of the Hi-Top (or maybe somewhere in between) is overall more pleasing and boot/bootie-like. I'll be returning these and keeping the Hi-Tops!

I love the style but shoe size is very narrow so I returned them. I would purchase again if offered in a wide width.

way too narrow I don't understand why they can't make their shoes wider.

These boots are very cute to look at, but much too narrow for my (normal) feet. Not only are the shoes narrow, the soles are very narrow, making the shoes very uncomfortable to wear and awkward to walk in. I am returning them.

I loved these from the photos, but in person the toe tapers so narrow that it was unwearable. It does not look like that in the photos. Unfortunately I have to return them.

I ordered a size 10 in these for my daughter, and they are very narrow -- they look so narrow it is almost comical. Had to return them and try a different style. She is very disappointed.

I love the design, but it was so narrow and I couldn't even zip up the side zipper they were so small. I ordered a size 9 just as I have for my other Minnetonka's, but this ran very small.

I usually keep quiet if I am no happy but this bootie is 'narrow' beyond belief. I am not kidding. The picture on the website looks like a nice round toe box which is why I ordered it. I have never even seen a shoe with this narrow of a footbed.

Minnetonka sizes are all over the map, I got my normal Minnetonka size, and they were VERY narrow. I could barely get them on my feet, and it was clear that they would never stretch out enough. I had to return them for a half size up, which was too long, but the width was better. I wore them a fair amount (read, a couple times a week) for about 7 months. In that time, the sole has started to come off because it is stitched on. Once you wear the soles down enough to hit the stitching, they fall apart. To get them fixed costs almost half what the shoes sell for. Not worth it. The company has really gone downhill since they have become a "hip" brand. Weak.

As soon as I excitedly opened the Zappos shipping box I instantly could see these cute booties were NOT a B width or even close. I could not get by foot into this shoe no way no how, even with the little zipper unzipped my toes were squished. Why I even tried is strange in itself. What a disappointment, they are so cute and perfect for winter. I asked myself, hmmm, whose feet are THIS narrow? Ah ha, yes, my girlfriend's feet are at least this narrow, she wears an 11AA, took them over to her, she tried them, said they were a little tight with socks on but since they are suede would stretch out some. Yea! She bought them from me, saving hubby the aggravation of getting them packed up and shipped back, even for free, still involved effort.
