I thought the boot was very nice in apperance. I have a couple pairs of born shoes that are very comfortable and I love them. This boot has a pillow cushion that bothered my arc. I think it is because my foot is a bit flat. It pressed up on my arch (or lack of arch) every step I took

Cute shoe, but not the comfort I expect from Born. These will be going back.

I loved these boots when I first got them and I bought two other shoes from Born and love them, too. These boots have an extremely comfortable fit and feel. Sadly the material ripped after just a few weeks of wearing them! I didn't use them in any weird way, just normal use.

I have long narrow feet (size 11) and normally, the Born brand shoes feel too short on me. I decided to take a chance. I have way too many pairs of boots but these looked more casual and comfy than my other more structured or fancy boots. Oh my god. ... I may never take them off. I've had them a week and and worn them every single day despite working from home (during a pandemic) and having plenty of comfy sneakers available. I always wonder which of my shoes would I want to wear to outrun the zombie apocalypse. THESE ARE THE PAIR! Not a ton of arch support, but I can add one. These are super cool LOOKING, and very very comfortable without sacrificing that rugged charm.

Born did it again..made a boot to fit my feet! Good arch support, just enough heel height--not enough to throw my back out,;wide enough toe box and a wellfitting heel; nice looking and fit right out of the box.

I LOVE THESE! They came in soft and not hard like most shoes do that you have to wear to be comfortable! Make sure you spray them with waterproof protector. These will last me YEARS!!!

These are beautiful boots & I had high hopes. I ordered an 8.5 & a 9 hoping to find a good fit, but sadly they just didn't have enough toe room for me. Wish they came in wide!

I’m very wide footed, and these were instantly comfy. No break in period required. I also have back problems and the slight heel was no issue. The insole cushioning is great. The only reason I’m not giving the comfort 5 stars is they aren’t my actual running shoes. But they’re super close.

Love these! All the cool style and solid, comfortable construction you count on with Born. Same sizing as other Born shoes and boots I have owned. Color is as pictured. Fab-u-lous!

I love Born boots and these are beautiful. They look adorable with skinny jeans and the color is a fabulous change to typical black or brown. The soles are perfect for winter wear. The leather is a little stiff but not uncomfortably so and will soften up as I wear them, which I plan to do quite a lot.

I ordered these in burgundy because I felt I needed something in that color. The boot is well-made, the color matched the pictures, it was comfortable and totally true to size on my completely average size 8 foot. I did end up returning them because I felt the style was a little too casual for them to be as versatile as what I was looking for. But great boot overall!

These fit great and the style was exactly what I wanted. Unfortunately, the color was almost purple and I couldn’t figure out how I would get enough wear out of them - someone else could maybe get away with it, but I’m not brave enough. Too bad...they were cute! Returned.

This boot is very comfortable, although I did have to stretch the bunion area on one foot - which was not difficult and they're now super comfortable. I do like them and am keeping them, as they're very stylish looking. My "however" is - they are much more "worn" than I realized for a new product. They look as though I have excessively roughed them up before ever being worn. Wearing them daily with very casual attire will be cool. Wearing them when I plan to be a bit less casual, with dress leggings - not so much. I'm not sorry for the purchase; just want others to be aware of how VERY distressed they are fresh out of the box.

Love Born boots, well made, nice soft leather. These boots are super cute, very comfortable. I have issues with needing more room for my toes and these boots deliver. If your feet are narrow you may find them too wide

As with all Born boots, the 8 fits me perfectly and are super comfortable even the first time they are worn. Highly recommend.

I got these in a 7, my usual Børn size, and they felt too narrow. Maybe my foot is getting wider in my old age. The arch support hit in the right spot, and I think they would be a great and comfy boot, but just too skinny. They are going back, sadly.

I wanted to love these, they are so comfortable, great cushioning but they are a bit too big, not so big that I can order the next size down just enough to cause them to slide up and down making them uncomfortable. They are beautiful but not quite right. Thank you.

I really love how these look but I found my normal size to be too small. Although most reviews rate these as true to size, I didn't find that to be the case. Possibly because I wear thicker socks that most? I'm returning them and I haven't decided if I'll try the next larger size. I think that might be too large.

These boots are adorable. They felt too narrow in the toe box. Børn shoes used to be a little wider. I am returning them, and going with a different brand.

I love Born boots, but these are too narrow and I usually wear a narrow or medium!! They also are so tight in the ankle area, I couldn't zip them. Born needs to rethink this boot....it's absolutely gorgeous!!! Just smaller than most of the Born boots I've owned.

I wear a solid 8 in shoes. However, ALL of the boots I have ordered in an 8 are too big! Today I received the Born Syd. So cute, however when you try to walk there is NO give in the boot. Very stiff and uncomfortable! Will return!

These are really cute boots but they are too narrow and tight. The length was good, I am a size 8 but to tight across the middle of my foot. I had to send them back.
