Just purchased these boots and I LOVE them. They fit great and look great, too. I usually take a 7 to a 7 1/2. Occasionally a 6 1/2 depending on the style so I ordered a 7. They fit perfect. Love the looks and the comfort of slightly lower heel, as compared to the DV Callia.
I only wish these came in olive or a chocolate brown (or both) as I would definitely order at least one more pair.

I absolutely love these boots! I bought them in both colors. I don't have any problem getting them off and on either. They are so comfortable and go with everything. Plus Zappos is awesome! I ordered my boots Monday morning and chose standard shipping. They arrived the next night. Amazing!

These are so cute and so comfortable! I just purchased them in the black in addition to the brown pair that I got a couple weeks ago. I have worn them every day that the weather has been dry enough (I have not put protector on them yet) and they have been comfortable since the first time that I put them on. They are the first pair of heeled shoes that I have been able to do that with so I love them. Plus I have gotten a million compliments. That is a bonus!

I got my boots a couple of weeks ago. Just love them. Good for casual and also for skirts and long dresses. They are comfortable to wear, except that they are a little wide at ankle. Just need to tighten the strap a little. These, you can wear all day, and the naturals are great. Mine didn't come with a darker toe or heal, but I didn't mind. Lots and lots of compliments!

I wanted these Java booties since last season when they came with brown leather straps, so I was happy to see them again this season revamped. Initially, I found them difficult to put on since there is no zipper, but after the first couple of wears, it was no longer an issue. I can wear them all day without my feet getting sore. These are great boots for a great price.

I was pleasantly surprised with the Dolce Vita Java Bootie. I ordered my size, 8, and they are true to size. I have a bunion in one foot and they are wide and soft enough that they feel comfortable. They look really good, not at all cheap. The taupe color I ordered is beautiful. Fully recommend.

Love this shoe! Runs very true to size and is super easy to get on and off. Great for boot cut pants and I've gotten compliments every time I've worn them!

Received these today and absolutely love them! However, I ordered a size 7 and they were too big, I am going to exchange them for a 6.5. I can be a 6.5 or a 7 depending on the brand, in this brand for sandals I'm a 7, but I guess for the heavier shoe I'm a 6.5. Overall great bootie, could dress is down or up, I would recommend these especially for people who work on their feet most of the day!

I was not sure if I wanted to spend so much on booties, but I am so glad that I did! I wear these with everything! They fit true to size (maybe a little narrow, but I have wide feet) and are pretty comfortable! These are must-haves.

Love these boots! They are comfortable, made of quality materials, they go with everything in my wardrobe. And the price was right! As always I wish most of my shoes had more arch support. I just added a thin arch support which made the shoe even more of a staple for my wardrobe. I love wearing comfortable shoes!

Quite comfortable and can wear all day without much discomfort (and I'm normally a Dansko wearer! Just looking for something a little dressier.) The black suede seems to be wearing well, even in some mildly rainy/snowy conditions. The combination of black and brown makes them very versatile. Fits true to size.

I love these little boots. They are stylish, fit true to size, and are comfortable to spent a day in. The suede is slightly coarse to look at, but the overall style is spot on.

These boots are definitely cute. I got black w/ black straps, and they look great with everything I've paired them with so far.
I was hoping that they'd be more comfortable, given the other reviews though. They're not bad for walking small distances, but if I walk for more than fifteen minutes at a time, my feet definitely start to feel tired and sore. I was hoping that insoles might solve the problem, but unfortunately they don't help enough to make these good walking boots.
While I won't be returning them, I'm still hunting for a pair of good looking ankle boots that I really can walk in all day.

Loved the look of these shoes! I wore them straight out of the box for a night out downtown for about 6 hours and never hurt my feet. I also was in a high "partying" traffic area where it had rained the night before and they never got dirty except for one drop that easily rubbed off. My only minor complaint is that the top straps sometimes ride up in the front part of the opening of the shoe but nothing that can't be easily be put back with the flip of a finger. Oh, and the color is great and goes with anything.

Ordered my usual size but these were huge on. Very wide opening. The suede looked great though. DV Jaxen has similar style but closer fit.

Really Beautiful boots! I l love the way they look! They go nicely with so many things.
My only issue is I find the heel area to be hard and uncomfortable. iMaybe its just my pair, or maybe they just need some breaking in. Im used to wearing either flat boots like Uggs, or comfy clogs, so guess I have to get used to mid sized heels again.
I can't bear to send them back, so I'll keep trying..Hopefully the heel area will soften up with wear.

These are really cute boots, they look great with jeans and would look cute with a skirt too. They are pretty comfortable, although I wouldn't want to walk for too long in them.

I have narrow feet, a little wide but cute. Decided to keep a different color - and the sole was wrinkled, like it moved before the glue dried. Sent them back.

Reason for purchasing was because it was very similar to the Rag and Bone boots that cost $500 but these are obviously significantly cheaper but you get what you pay for. Although, I do love the look of the boots and the suede portion, the leather is fake/very cheap looking. The heels are a good height and they make it very easy to walk around but they are not comfortable. They also run small so I've had to purchase shoe stretchers to stretch the out then insert padding because there is no support for the padding of your foot, so long walks are impossible. Again, I do like the look and price of the boots, but moving forward, will probably splurge on better quality products.

This boot slipped off my heel with every step, even when I tried it on with thick athletic socks. I could tell that if I was doing a lot of walking, it would give me blisters from the rubbing on my heel. But yet if I went down a size it would be too small in length. Also there is zero to little footbed padding which wouldn't make standing very comfortable. They're cute, but going to be returned.

These are super cute but, they were a hassle to put on and take off. The ankle belt truly is a belt, meaning it is not decorative. I had to literally unbuckle it and unthread it wide enough for me to slip my foot in and out of it. I wear a 6.5 so I have what most would consider a small foot. I do have high arches without having a wide foot though. Maybe if my foot was super thin and slim, I could just set the belt at one hole and be able to slip them on and off. But that's not the case. And even then, I didn't like that they then looked wide at the ankle.

They looked so cute online but unfortunately were extremely tight for a wide footed girl like me. The whole boot is quite stiff so I was sure that I would never really break them in. Maybe if you had narrow or average width feet these would be fine. I returned them.

I ordered these in black with tan accent. I returned due to being too large, though I ordered my typical boot size. Also, they weren't that easy to put on, and the black dye looked like it would rub off if wet.
