These boots are almost impossible to put on. They are too narrow and inflexible and the laces are too wide for the lace holes, so there's no way to quickly lace up or down the boot. For being so stiff, they are somehow simultaneously flimsy. The boot looks cheap, feels cheap and is over all unattractive and uncomfortable.

I previously wrote a glowing review of these boots, but I am really disappointed that I'm going to have to have them resoled after just a few months. They have worn through and water can now enter through a hole in the sole. Needs a stronger rubber sole with tread that won't wear down quickly, and then they'd be perfect.

I searched and searched for a cute pair of boots and when I saw these, I had to order them. I am usually a 6.5, but ordered a half size up knowing that I would want to wear them with thick socks. I love these boots so much that I've rarely put anything else on my feet since getting them. My sock of choice with them is a thick Alpaca sock, which I've found make the boots super comfortable. They are a little less comfortable in regular socks, probably more due to the extra space, but like I said, I continue to wear them constantly. The only issue I had were the shoe laces. I found the original laces too thick to stay properly tied, but that was easily and cheaply fixed with a new set of laces. Love these boots and have had so many compliments on them! Great versatile boot for a nice price. Would and have recommended them to others.

These shoes are very comfortable. I have worn Ecco and Footjoy in the past. These are so light weight you hardly know you have them on. First time I wore them I walked 18 holes with no problem. The cleats seem prominent due to the profile of the sole, but I had no trouble walking on the greens. I'm very pleased by the comfort and performance. My arch is closer to flat, and that matched the insole quite well.

These are a cute and versatile boot. They make my size 11 feet look smaller. They look great with jeans and skirts. Not a lot of arch support, but still comfortable.

These boots are really comfortable. I usually wear a 8.5 and I had to exchange them for a 9. Will enjoy these boots!

I am in love with these boots! I like that they are simple lace up boots (no side zipper) and have considerable tread on the bottom. Note that the black are more like gray and are kind of faded out. That was fine with me, I like that it is a unique color. I have worn these boots almost every day since I got them, and they just get more cozy and more comfortable. I initially bought a 7 (my normal size) but felt like there wasn't enough room for thick winter socks, so I went up to 7 1/2 and am very happy with how they fit. Can't say enough good things about these boots! Just know that this is not really a dressy boot, more of a rugged boot. However, I work in a professional setting and feel comfortable wearing them to work, so it just depends on your style.

These feel good on! I always buy a half a size bigger for boots and when buying online and they are perfect - roomy enough for a thick if needed. I love the soles on these boots, so fun and my 16 year old daughter borrows them, and my 79 year old momma always tells me she wants a pair too.

I love these boots. They are a bit lighter in person but still cute. They look good with tights, jeans, most things. I would suggest shoe inserts to support the arch but without them they are still comfortable.

Really happy with the shoes, exactly what I was expecting. Shipped in less than two days. Was looking for cute versatile boots, so these are perfect.

I am very pleased with these boots for the price. They are comfortable, but not at the expense of not feeling sturdy. I have wide feet and they were just mildly snug with thick socks, but I walked around in them for 20 minutes and they broke it that quickly. The canvas is tough, the laces thick. They looked really cute with tights, a nice mix of masculine and feminine. I would be really surprised if they did not last for years to come.

Was looking for a cute, short, lace up boot with no side zipper. I'm so happy with these. Wore them the first day with light socks and walked all over the city with no problems. I like a snug fit on the top of my foot, so I changed the laces around, starting with the first lace against the tongue instead of above. Perfect fit. Love the sole.

I've spent months searching for boots without a side zipper, so I was ecstatic when I discovered this awesome lace-up pair from Rocket Dog! They're perfect with shorts or pants, and I receive compliments every time I wear them. When these finally wear out in a few years, I know I'm going to wish I'd bought a second pair.

Super comfortable. The flexible sole and soft material make it so there is no need to break these in. I was able to wear them a full day right out of the box. That plus the grip on the bottom will probably make these a winter staple. They are thin and not super warm, so you may want to go half a size up to be able to wear warm socks under during the colder months.

These boots run a little narrow and the insole is pretty hard, but for my feet wearing thinner socks and putting a gel insole inside fixed the problem. These boots are SUPER cute, feel good on my feet, and look great with leggings. I'm going to treat them to make them more water-resistant, but after two days of wearing all day, I have to say that I'm very pleased!

What great looking boots! I love them, but they do not love me back. They are too tight through the toes for my feet, the stitching at the front squeezes them tightly. If you have narrower feet in the toe region, these boots would work for you. Unfortunately, I will return them and resume my quest for the perfect boots.

These boots were much more comfortable than I expected. I ordered a couple other tall, combat-ish boots & ended up returning them because they were so uncomfortable...not these. I liked that they didn't have a tacky side zipper. They take a little more effort to get on, but look great. The first day I got them, I spent the entire day walking & my feet did not hurt at all. The quality is commensurate with the price.

Love these boots, they look awesome with leggings and skinny jeans. However, they are hard to put on and I ripped the pull tab yanking on it and :( these would have benefited from a zipper up the back.

Great fit and comfort, poor quality laces. Both of my laces frayed within one month of wearing them and I'm now looking at having to purchase new ones, for upwards of 20% the boot's price! I'm also skeptical of the durability of the soles as they are already showing signs of significant wear (parts of the tread on the heels are nearly gone). I have had them two months and wear them for short periods maybe a couple of times each week while living a highly-restrictive pandemic lifestyle.
