LOVE, LOVE, LOVE. Extremely comfortable and according to my co-workers "so cute". I wear size 7.5 and I ordered 7.5 and they are a perfect fit with socks on. Really happy with my purchase :).

These Born Adler boots hit that sweet spot for me. It's been a while since I've bought Born footwear, and I'm glad I oot these. These boots are made of quality leather, a good toe box and a heel that's just high enough to show your legs well in skirts and leggings. I have a high arch, and these boots are designed to support the arch with nicely fitted sides. I also wear these with stovepipe jeans and dresses with leggings. I'm an artist, a young 68 and wear these both day and night. They can dress won and up, and feel great both ways. I'll be looking at more Born low boots, due to this quality.

These boots are great!! I was having a lot of trouble finding a comfortable everyday boot until I tried on a friend's pair of Borns and had to have my own pair. They go with pretty much everything, didn't require any breaking in, and were surprisingly warm. I'd say they run true to size, I usually wear a 7 or 7.5, bought the 7.5, and can wear them comfortably with thick socks.

I bought this pair to check sizes. Way to big so I will keep 9.5. These were very purple in color!

These boots are very cute and beautifully made. I love the color and the look of the leather (I ordered in Cafe Distressed) They fit well and were comfortable right out of the box.

I love the look of these boots. I got the Prugna distressed and the color is scrumptious. It goes with everything in my closet. I wore these to work right out of the box and the only problem I had was that the ball of my left foot hurt after several hours of being on my feet. This is obviously a problem with my foot and not the shoes though as this happens on most of my shoes. I love the look of these with jeans, skirts and leggings. I will get loads of wear out of these boots!

I love the Börn brand! Comfort, style, fit, quality, and value and this bootie is no exception! Sheer comfort straight out of the box! The color is fabulous and true to the photo. I love the sole, it provides sure-footed grip so you can stand firm! Snap these babies up quick you won't be disappointed!

I work all day on my feet & these boots feel like slippers. I love the Prugna color, a deep maroon that at night looks black but in daylight goes with navy, gray & black clothes. I wear thick socks in the winter & these booties accomodate them at my regular size of 6.5. I'm over 60 yrs old & appreciate the comfort while looking stylish. I initially ordered a size up (7) but had to exchange them as my regular size worked even though I wear thick socks. This was my 1st Zappos purchase & they made the exchange & re-purchase super easy.

they were a little snug and stiff but loosening the buckles helped. A little less snug now so the stiffness on the top of the foot is less noticeable.

These are out of the box no break in comfortable! I love the sole, I can wear these in winter and not worry about slipping on the snow. I continue to buy Born shoes/boots for that reason.

Love these boots! Comfortable out of the box. Bought them in Cafe Distressed and it's a great universal color that goes with black pants, jeans etc.

These boots are fantastic! Comfortable from the moment I put them on. I wear size 11, sometimes 11.5. The size 11 was perfect, leaving room to spare for thicker socks. Love the look of them as well.

These are great looking boots but ultimately not the look for what I needed. Also, fit was a bit loose. Might have been better with a 9.5.

I'd tried a couple other pairs of boots which I had to return. When I first put these on, I was concerned that the top would rub against my leg, as one of the others had. However, within 5 minutes of trying them in my house, they felt perfect--as if I'd worn them for years. I've never had a breaking in period beyond that first trial--they're great. I love the look and the feel. If I wanted to pick something someone might not like, I'd say they're heavier than others I've worn. However, I love the fit, the look, and I needed a weather resistant boot, yet a good look. These are they! Highly recommend them for every reason.

The Prugna color is beautiful but more plum than in the picture (almost looks the same as cafe in the photos but isn't). The boot looks great but is a bit less comfortable than some other Born shoes I have. I probably just need to break them in a bit. I will probably add an insert since the arch support isn't great and there is definitely room.

Awesome color! A beautiful dark purple (almost black and almost brown). The big buckle across the front just doesn't look right on me (too bulky). I usually wear a 9 in most shoes. I ordered an 8.5 and with an insole they'd be great, but on their own (and they seem comfy enough on their own) they're still a bit too big, so I'd probably need an 8 if I were keeping them.

Exactly what a fall boot should be! Comfortable right out of the box. Looks adorable with all jean lengths. A true dark brown! True to size - I am an 8 and I ordered an 8 and this will allow for different sock thickness choices. Would absolutely wear these in the winter thanks to the tread on the bottom. Have worn all day with no heel or foot pain - a keeper!

Love this boot. It is just what I wanted for the winter. The style will go with all my jeans. No break in time required at all. I have worn them a dozen or more times already. The color goes with most everything. Great quality as I have come to expect from all the Born shoes and boots that I own. No complaints whatsoever.

I couldn't decide between the Cognac and Distressed Cafe colors, so I ordered both. I liked both, but ultimately preferred the distressed look. Also, as other reviewers mentioned, the full grain Cognac was stiffer than the distressed, which was comfortable right out of the box. They look great with jeans.

They arrived today and I was very pleased with the look and fit. The footbed was comfy and I like the arch support. This is the first pair of Born boots I have purchased and wouldn't hesitate to buy another.

Cute boot and comfortable, even for my feet that are wide in the toes. I'm only sending it back because I decided to go with a boot with a bit more heel.

Loved the style. Was extremely pleased to see the arch support in the inside sole. The boot was comfortable right out of the box. The brown is a deep rich color.

I wasn't sure what to expect from these boots, especially after reading other reviews while I waited for them to arrive. I have purchased born and boc brand shoes a few times, and found that they are hit-or-miss for my feet. When they hit they are great, and that is the case with these boots. I purchased size 8.5 in Prugna, and they are wide enough to accomodate my feet, even with a hand-knit sock. The arch support hits just right and feels more supportive than the born galenka that I purchased last year. The ankles don't hit in a weird spot or rub. The color is hard to describe. I was expecting more purple, and was concerned that they might look goofy, but they basically look blackish/brown with a slight purple tinge. The picture i see on my iPad screen is pretty true to what my boots look like IRL. The distressed effect is nice, and prevents to boots from being too shiny, and the buckles break up the expanse of boot without being too over the top motor style. All in all, for me these are definitely keepers!

I ordered several boots in this style and the Born Adler's were by far the most narrow in width. They are a lovely boot, beautiful leather, great styling with the double buckles and beautiful colour (Cognac). Wish they were offered in a wider width.
