I needed to get steel toe boots for work and then I found these! I thought these were the cutest work boots ever! Plus in my favorite color! The only thing I would recommend for the next buyer is to consider buying the wide option. My feet aren’t that wide and these boots are tight. Just have to make sure to wear thin socks with them. Honestly they just need time to break them in!

These boots are fantastic. They fit great (maybe try your size and a half size up because of the steel toe). I love the style and color. I often wear them all day to perform building inspections (lots of walking, climbing ladders, walking roofs, climbing in and out of swing stages and boom lifts). They are so comfortable that I completely forget I'm wearing work boots. I've never had that experience before. I'm a size 9. I wish I had tried a 9 1/2. The toe box sometimes feels a little tight, especially with thick socks for winter work. But I tend to forget about that as the day goes on, so it's not that bad.

Surprisingly they keep my toes warm! The style is great. Not too bulky for steel toed boots.

I love these boots. They fit perfectly the first time I put them on and I didn't have to break them in at all. I'm on my second pair and I will continue to buy them until they get discontinued like everything else I love.

These boots are functional, comfortable and they offer great support! I love them (:
Would definitely recommend to wear with thicker socks to avoid blistering (:

I work in the power industry, and need a heavy duty pair of boots for site visits (switch yards, generators...) and I need to be sure that my feet will be well protected in environments where there is a lot of heavy duty equipment and the potential for serious injury. My feet are extremely well protected in these boots. They are comfortable and I feel secure in them, while still being stylish at the same time. I'm fairly petite, and I felt that these boots fit my frame well and didn't look huge and clunky as other work boots I've worn in the past have. The color is nice as well!

Absolutely love these boots. I drive equipment and am required to wear steel toes. They are light, comfortable, and I love the color. They did not require a break in period and we're superb straight out of the box. I highly recommend these boots!

I really wanted to love these boots because they are so good looking, but the stitching on the tongue hit my arch and I figured it wouldn't stretch out. Very sad to return them.

I ordered the frost and the color is beautiful. Pretty heavy duty yet stylish. I feel they are similar to Doc Martens in that they are somewhat expensive but made to last. I normally wear anything from a 9-10 and got these in a 9.5 and they fit great. I only gave a 4 on comfort because they can be a little heavy but I guess that's what you get with durability.

I work in manufacturing and needed these for PPE in the warehouse. I love them! They are cute and very comfortable, especially around the heel. They were definitely designed with comfort and style in mind. They are not big and bulky like most women's steel toe boots I've tried. They provide nice ankle support as they have almost a midcalf boot shaft. I love them so much I find myself wearing them outside work. Highly recommend these to any female looking for comfy-cute work boots.

Great work boot. I also love that it's waterproof. Went out to a construction site after a muddy and rainy day and got caked with mud. Was able to wash it off easily and the boot still look good. Pretty comfortable and great support. Sole kept me sturdy walking through uneven ground and mud. highly recommend it.

Great boots, wore them immediately and was completely satisfied with their performance. They kept my feet warm for several hours in below freezing temperatures and are very sturdy.

Boots were very comfortable right out of the box, see to be true to size. Dropped some steel on my foot the first day I wore them and everything was fine. Good safety boots.

i wear a size 5.5, the size is spot on. For a steel toe it's as comfortable as is stylish. These Caterpillars are not heavy but felt like they gave me height with no heal.

I was nervous about how they would fit but they fit well! Overall comfort was great but I think while there is some arch support not enough. I have normal arches. It takes a bit getting used to the ankle support.

I'm a little torn on these boots. They look good and the quality is great but the insole of the shoe almost feels sloped up around the edges. Which seems to throw my whole foot off and make the whole boot feel not very supportive. I'm going to try and break them in and see if that changes but it is an odd feeling. Almost like the insole is cradled.

These shoes are so cute, I owned a pair, wore them out, and was going to buy a second pair, but when I got them I had forgotten how narrow they ran. I used stretchers on the first pair to get them wide enough to be comfortable. I didn't want to go through the process of stretching them again so I returned them. Beautiful color though, very stylish.

These are so beautiful. I just wish they fit. I am a 7.5 wide but I ordered 8 wide. The length was perfect. Even the height felt surprisingly good. I was expecting it to fit at a weird place on my calf but it was really nice. The problem is that for even for a size wide they are very narrow. I couldn't wait to take them off and my feet hurt for a long time afterwards from being squished. Toe room was good.
The purple color is lovely. It isn't loud or flashy. It's just a nice subtle difference from the regular brown and black.
They felt like they would protect my feet just fine. I only tried them on in my carpeted house so I can't say whether they slip or not. They don't feel heavy at all.
I want to keep these boots so bad but I just can't. They'll be going back and the search will continue.
If you have narrow feet you'll love these.

I was obligated to purchase steel toe boots for my workplace, so I got these based on style and the description of "comfort of an athletic shoe". Have only worn them about 5 times and feel they still need to be broken in but can say they're not uncomfortable, a bit clunky to walk in. As for style am very pleased with, get a lot of compliments.

Comfy fit, true to size. Scratched the back of my feet and made bruise marks. Also no grip under shoes for slick weather.

Tongue on this boot is very weird. should be thinner so that it sits better inside when laced up.
If I had to order a boot again I would select one with composite toe so it is lighter. by end of shift I am dragging my feet.
