I have eyeing these shoes for a year, and finally decided to them for my trip to Scotland since they are waterproof.They look exactly as shown, and most importantly they are supper light and comfortable vs. bulky heavy hiking boots. I would definitely recommends to my friends and family. My family and friends saw them and want ones to.

I just received them! I was very concerned about the fit because I have a wide foot, I went a half size up and they're perfect length and width. The toe of the shoe is little dry, as some other reviewers have pointed out about the leather, but it's nothing a little leather conditioner won't fix and it isn't noticeable. The lining is very soft and feels great against the skin. The look exactly as pictured and are very comfortable and weightless.

I bought these really wanting the look and feel of an awesome hiking boot without looking like a bulky tennis shoe. Fashion is a factor for me, these boots seemed to pull off both function and looks on the trail. I bought some red laces and took them out for the first time over the last week in Joshua Tree, CA; they were super quick to break in and I can tell, will hold up well to different elements and terrain. Stoked.

I bought these boots to go hiking and camping. I wanted something durable that would wear nice. I also look for style when I shop shoes. I couldn't find a good pair of hiking boots that were both durable and stylish until I found these. I had to buy them right away!!

North Face Ballard Lace is a light weight walking boot with a one inch heel and excellent ankle support. Just what I was searching for. The boot is well constructed and the quilt lining adds just enough warmth to chase off a wet, chilly day. I'm a size 7 and the fit is true to size. Light wool blend socks go perfect with this boot.

I have worn these shoes pretty much every single day for a year (save a day or two) and I love them! Winter weather, light rain, ice, hot days that turn to cold nights - they are so versatile for fashion and weather!

Typical college student and always on the go! I work outside often and these shoes are awesome! No slipping on icy sidewalks and no sliding around outside either! No need to bring two sets of shoes and the style and color can match any outfit of mine!

These are the most comfortable boots. I can walk miles in these with no issue. They are also very warm (ex. feet stayed warm while walking around at night in a snow storm). I have high arches and a small bunion, very supportive with room in the box. I've had these about 2 years, wearing almost daily in fall and winter, still going strong. Highly recommend.

These are the perfect all weather boot, I wore them through snow, rain and brisk hikes. They are super comfortable, and the more you wear them the better they look. I did protect them with leather spray, just because I don't believe they're made to be water proof. However, they held up in the Colorado snow and kept their color well.

I wanted boots that were cute enough that I could wear to work but that most importantly had good traction, were weather proof, and would keep my feet warm. These boots hit all of these markers! I would definitely buy again and have already recommended to friends.

These boots are very comfortable, and warm! I wear a 7.5 and ordered 7.5 and they fit perfectly! I can wear thicker wool socks and the boots aren't tight on my feet, still very comfortable. I usually cannot wear boots and walk around without my feet hurting, but have not had a problem with these boots yet! I've had them for about 2 weeks now.

I am honestly very happy I bought these boots. I held it off for the longest because i was skeptical. They are super warm and comfortable to wear out. I use them for hiking in moderate trails and to run errands.

I bought the previous version of this boot exactly two years ago and have worn them nearly every fall/winter/spring day since then. I have a very hard time finding shoes that are comfortable, especially for all the city walking I do. These have been amazing, and I have loved them from day one. The first pair has worn out and I've just ordered two new pairs to replace them. My only sadness is that the pair from 2015 had a hot pink lining and laces, and these don't (I'm sure I'll survive).

These boots are so cute! I wear a size 6.5, ordered the 6.5 and they fit great! They were a tad snug on the width but after wearing them a few times they have stretched out and are very comfortable now. Can't wait to test them out when snowfalls, the grip seems very good! I'd recommend these shoes to anyone looking for a cute, comfortable and stylish pair of boots
