Customer Reviews Chippewa American Handcrafted GQ Apache Lacer Boot

The leather is a bit thin, so it'll give your shoes odd wrinkles, unless you're into them then it's not a big deal. It's not worth the price they're posted, but keep in mind you're also paying for the service and shipping. OVERALL, these are good boots that get the job done, but they make weird wrinkles due to the leather.

These boots are good but when I spend this much on boots I would expect them to last. While the uppers have lasted fine I wore out the soles in less than a year. The tread on these boots is shallow to begin with but paired with the vibrax sole they wear out exceptionally fast. Also the ankle support isn't great and the soles rolled outward on me quickly and I've never had a pair of boots do this before.

Looks nice out of the box, but after about a year's worth of wearing, I've found the toe to crease in a very ugly way. I expected some wrinkling and creasing of the leather, but the seemingly low quality of the leather has caused several thick, fat wrinkles on the left toe while leaving more expected fine creasing on the right. I've mentioned this on some online style forums, and found others had the exact same issue; leading me to believe it's a problem with quality rather than how I wear them. Otherwise a perfectly fine product. Durable and relatively comfortable.

Not a bad boot for the price. Not perfect. The arch support on the right boot is noticeably higher than on the left boot, a little uncomfortable. Hopefully this will compress down with time. Also the boots have developed squeaks in the last with time.

These are descent boots, they fit the price point well. I would not recommend these boots for wear in any super wet conditions. I took mine to Park City Utah for a week and it just about tore my brand new boots up even, after sprayed with a water repellent. The break in period was shorter then I expected as the leather is already pretty soft. Its not a stylish boot but nice enough to wear from warehouse to office and you got to love the American Flag Logo. USA!

The soles of these boots were crooked! Once the foot is inside, you can tell that the boots would probably break in very comfortably, but the pair I received had the sole so lop-sided, that in one step it forced my feet to over-pronate!

I had some quality control issues with the first two pairs of boots I received from Zappos. I spoke with customer service and they are sending me a 3rd pair. Zappos customer service is excellent and may have the best phone support of any company I've dealt with. I hope these ones do the trick since I do like the boots. They are comfortable and look great. My recommendation is that anyone who orders these boots looks them over carefully.

These boots look nice and felt great. But they didn't last as long as I thought they would. I took good care of them, but the shoe separated from the sole. Annoying. Maybe that's common?

The right boot has basically a hole in the toe instep and is significantly smaller than the left. The right boot causes a lot of pain in my foot. 5 stars on the left boot but the right boot is too painful to wear. I have tried everything to make the right boot wearable but it is not. Too bad it’s too late to return them but I wish I could. Half of these boots are very well made which is a shame.
