Really cute, versatile style I can imagine wearing for casual and less-casual occasions. Pretty comfortable after an hour or two, but I'll know for sure after I've worn them all day. They're supposed to be teal, but they were greener than I expected. Still, close enough that I kept them, since I liked the style and comfort!

Cute and comfortable boots...well padded on the inside and super soft leather. They are a little brighter color than the picture, going toward the green side rather than the blue. I liked them for the contrast with the brown side strap. I'm a 8.5 N and they could have been even more narrow.

Loved these booties - and I ordered a 1/2 size larger than normal but for some reason it was still too small. Maybe because it's been summer and now I have to get my foot into a normal shoe?! I loved them but they are just not a good fit for me. I have problem feet anyway so will keep looking!

Super cute boots. I wish the heel was firmer instead of soft and there was no polyester liner. Also, all the Cobb Hill shoes have a nice arch, but it isn't high enough for me.

Nice boot, really nice, not sure I would have spent this much money on it if I could have worn it around the house a while longer. I wore them to a party the day I got them. Little snug through the toe box. looks great, just a little narrow for me. But I still wear them!

Super comfy. The leather is very smooth. Maybe not as elegant looking as some others, but a good casual boot that can be dressed up or down.

Comfortable and cute, although heel a little wide so it slips some on me. Also, they won't work with skinny jeans because they're fairly tight around the top, making the jeans bunch up. But they work great under wider leg pants.

These ran very narrow - I wear a 5.5 regular and ordered a 6 W so I'd have room for insoles. It did not feel like a wide width nor was it a half size too big like it should have been.

Although I ordered a narrow size, only the toe box was narrow and the heel slipped. The boot has a rounded toe box.

I liked these boots, but they were just a tad on the narrow side. Not enough to keep me from purchasing them, but enough to note it in a review. I did end up returning them only because I have something very similar in the heel and with the same ruching, but I wanted to check them out anyway. I'm glad I did. I wear a size 7 medium and found these to be a good fit, overall. The heel isn't super sturdy, and I was looking for a very flat boot so I went with the Born Mabel, instead. They are two very different looking boots, so if you are looking for a very comfy little ankle boot with a bit of a heel, I'd say give this Cobb Hill Alexandra a try. They are made by New Balance, so very comfortable.

I love the style and fit of these boots. I have a wide foot and my regular size (7w) fit perfectly. The ruching is very comfortable and the side straps give it a contemporary look.

These shoes were very comfortable and true to size. The leather is fairly soft and they would have broken in quickly. I was looking for a very specific shade of tan, though, and this was not quite the right color (I ended up with Pikolinos - a darker shade). I wanted to keep these, but couldn't justify buying two pairs of tan boots (otherwise I'd have been delighted to have them in my closet). They are very sophisticated in look, and when worn with dress pants or a longer skirt, they are an elegant shoe that would be good for almost any occasion. The color is sort of a shade of butterscotch, slightly lighter than it appears on my monitor. Footbed is very comfortable and these are a very well-made boot. The variation in color between the toe box area and the top of the shoe was not as apparent in the picture as it was in real life. So if you're looking for a sophisticated boot that goes from lightish tan to butterscotch in your wardrobe (as opposed to a more saddle tan color), this is the boot for you.

These are cute, although I wanted a smaller cuff opening--not crazy about how much they gap.
But the fit was odd for me. I'm an 8 M and it seems like every boot I try is a little narrow, so I went with a wide. It was more than wide enough for me, but then the heel was huge.
I like the low heel and they seem as though they'd be comfortable if they fit.
But they don't so farewell!

The boot was bought in a wide width but was to narrow still for my foot! I wear an 8W.

Was excited about these boots (and Cobb Hill brand) as they came in a narrow width. I normally wear a 10N, which is what I order. They are a perfect fit through the toe box and instep, but too wide in the heel. I often wear a thicker sock to deal with looser boots, but in this case, with the narrow toe box, that will be impossible.
In addition, the boot's open circumference is on the large side. Because the model in the video is wearing long pants, you can't really tell. With my thin ankles, the open is too large - like wearing your mother's shoes as a kid. Sadly will be returning.

I have normal-ish size 9 feet - normal arches and normal width, but my right foot is just a tad bigger than my left foot and my feet are super sensitive to developing blisters from new shoes. I ordered a size 9 in these boots and my first impression was that they were way too tight. I wore them around the house for a few hours while deciding whether they were keep-able, and after a few hours of wearing them while sitting with a few walks around the house, they seemed to sufficiently loosen up. I decided they were good enough to wear to work this morning, however, they seemed tight again when I put them on. I was nervous about getting thru the day without a blister, but by noon, things were looking good. By the end of the day, however, they had loosened up so much that I could feel my heel riding up 1-2" with each step. I have a mostly sedentary job - lots of sitting with a few walks to conference rooms - so they didn't get much actual wear. By the time I got home, they had loosened up so much that I was able to kick them off. It's a little disconcerting that they went from "too tight" to "too loose" within 12 hours of light wear and less than a mile walked. They're cute and I like them, but the wear has become so sloppy that I'm sure I'd develop blisters from all the heel motion if I wear them for any distance walking.

The ankle was so big, I was swimming in it (and I have big ankles). That might be the look, but it didn't work for me. Good width though in the shoe.

I like these boots so much but after about 10 wearings the heal has worn out.
Quality poor.

I love the look of this boot but unfortunately, it doesn't have enough forefoot padding for my sensitive feet. I ordered an 8 wide and it was still a bit narrow for me. I usually wear an 8 wide in other shoes. If the shoe had been wide enough, I could have put a form pad in the forefoot. I will return the shoes.

Not impressed. Color is more of a tan/ brown and wide width it is not. I own other Cobb Hill Shoes, which is why I bought these online. My other shoes are true to wide, these not so much.

I loved the look of these boots!!!! I have another style by Rockport Cobb Hill that fit me perfectly and are super comfortable. so I thought these would fit well too. But unfortunately, the 8M , which is my usual size, was too narrow. So I sent them back for an 8W but these were way to big, both in width and it felt like they were an 8 1/2 in size. So very sadly I had to return them. They were SO CUTE though so if they fit you, you will love them.

This is a beautiful boot. Rockport Cobb Hill is a good brand for me. I own the Abilene in an 8N and when I saw this boot it was a "must" have. I ordered the 8N and unfortunately it fits like a 7 1/2 so it has to go back. I have 5 other styles from Cobb Hill and in some the 8N is very generous. If only sizing was consistent. The construction, quality and style of this boot is beautiful.
