I was looking for a smart waterproof bootie to wear during a trip to Europe in December and I think these are the ones! The look good with jeans, will look good with leggings, a dress, etc. I got the black suede in my true 7.5 size and they fit well ( I have a wide-ish B width). Won't be able to wear a heavy sock but I hate wearing heavy socks in any shoe other than a sneaker. The suede looks great, heel is good, love the side zipper. They feel slightly stiff in the heel but had no problem wearing them the first time. They are sleeker and smarter than they appear in photo. So far, worth it!

I've only worn them once, but they are very comfortable and don't seem to need a lot of break-in time. These days I'm between an 8 and an 8.5, but I went with the 8.5 based on other reviews. The real test will be when I try them in snow/wet conditions; hoping the tread will be decent enough to do the basic schlepping between car and destination. I live in the mountains and function is important, but I also want some style. These boots are cute and hopefully will do the job once it starts snowing.

Beautiful, cute boots. Unfortunately the heel is a bit wide, even though I went down a half size. I've decided to try a heel insert to keep them from slipping. The color mushroom is perfect.

I love the look and the heel height but I would say it runs about a half size large. The dark grey is a perfect color. Suede AND waterproof!

Cute shoe but a little too big. I have medium-wide feet, but not too wide. 8M was just too big.

Super cute shoe and looked very high quality in person. Unfortunately, the 7.5 was too snug and the 8 was too large, so they had to go back for me. I've previously taken a 7 in Blondo booties (and am usually a 7.5 in boots), so these felt like they ran a bit small--this could be due to the narrower toe box. I've had great success with Blondo boots in the past, so I highly recommend the brand--and these would have been perfect, if I could have gotten the size to work!

Passable - I'm getting more and more disappointed in the lack of quality in shoes - my most comfortable shoes are years old.

Love Blondo, but not these. The fit is just odd. They fit fine in the toe area, but get bigger and bigger from the toe area to the ankle. They are particularly wide in the ankle area. I could practically walk out of them. A smaller size would be too short. Just completely off!

Nice looking, but unfortunately I ordered 6.5W and the shoes felt like a M. Returned.

These are very nice booties with a heel height that can be worn very comfortably. I ordered the Black Leather, but found they are really a sueded finish. I’m disappointed because I wanted a more true leather finish. I may return them and continue my search for a “leather” bootie.

Beautiful booties. Wanted to love them. After reading the reviews I went up 1/2 size and the wide size was still way too narrow. I could barely zip them up.

Bought these hoping for an everyday, goes -with-everything, comfortable bootie. They look the part but don't feel it! Ordered a wide but they are narrower than some of my regular width boots. They are not cute enough not to be comfy. They are going back.

This boot seems well made and is stylish. If you have a wide width or bunions, may not be good for you.

SMALL & TIGHT: Despite ordering 1/2 size larger and wide width, the boot felt very short in length and tight in width. Based on my normal ordering it should have felt slightly roomier than usual. The boot was certainly too small to accommodate winter socks. NOTE: the toe is a bit pointy, so more likely to feel tight.

I bought a wide so I could wear socks with these when the weather turns cooler. Unfortunately, I could not get these booties on my feet with socks on. With trouser socks/nylons they'll fit fine. I'll wear them with a twinge of disappointment.

The left was okay but the right was tighter. Not a great color - sorta brown, sorta green. Returning

I usually wear a 7W. The heal lifted up so had to return. This is not normally a problem for me. Liked the style.

While I liked the style of these boots, I returned them due to comfort and fit. I ordered a size 6 after reading so many rave reviews on travel website about these being comfortable and stylish walking shoes, but was disappointed by a few things when these boots arrived! The fit was a little long for me, and the shaft rubbed the side of my ankle uncomfortably. The shaft circumference was also quite big, and I felt like my ankle rolled about as I walked. There also wasn't a lot of cushioning or arch support in the foot bed, although the textile lining was warm and soft. As other reviews here also mentioned, the heel is wrapped in a weird material which scratches and wears really easily! I don't think this boot would hold up well after much traveling, and I expected more in terms of durability and comfort for the price of the boot.

I already have these boots in Black Suede and wear them all the time, so I decided to pick up another color in the suede and one in the leather. There's something weird about these boots - the suede color (Mushroom) fit just fine even with insoles in, didn't need any breaking in, and felt like a perfect fit (just like my existing black suede pair). The leather though - it fits much narrower and I had trouble with the fit in my arch. Ultimately I kept the second suede pair but I'm super bummer to return the leather as I was really looking forward to them!

I wanted to make the shoe fit. I need one like it. I like the style. However, the fit was odd. The boot lacks arch support. Therefore, it is difficult to say the shoe fit. It is an odd shape. I ordered the 5.5 and 6. If I had to choose the size, FYI, I would choose the 5.5 over the 6. I would say it is true to size. I returned both sizes.

I reaaaaally wanted to like these. It was difficult getting these on, despite being wide-width. Once I did get them on, my toes felt cramped which prompted me to return these and look into a different brand with a true wide-width.
