Customer Reviews Blondo Villa Waterproof Bootie

Was very narrow at the toe. Was a darker color than add.

Very cute boot but very narrow - had to return - would have loved to kept them.

Ordered these because of the waterproof claim and heal height, but sadly, when zipped up they are tight around my ankle and rub it uncomfortably. I could see a blister coming around the ankle. Thanks to Zappo's great try and buy policy, I returned them and went with a similar Edelman shoe.

I tried 6.5 wide and 7 wide. The difference in size was extreme. While the 6.5W was really tight, the 7W gaps in the heel even after adding a heel cushion with a full foot pad on top of that. Too bad. Cute bootie.

Very comfortable but the color did not look like the picture. Don’t like the color

I really wanted to like these shoes but unfortunately I had to return them. The shoes were way too small. I couldn’t even put my foot into this shoe. I usually wear an 8 or 8.5 W which is what I ordered. Too bad because they are super cute.

I have wide feet and was looking for something comfortable to walk around the city in so I was hopeful when I saw they had a W width and great reviews. Unfortunately, for me it felt like a regular width and they just weren’t comfortable (felt very stiff) or cute enough to keep especially for this price. I returned mine.

I normally wear an 8.5, but these felt really large. They were very wide where they hit at my ankle and not supportive at all. Sending them back.

These were super cute shoes and I really liked that they were waterproof. However, I have thick ankles and the part that hit my ankles in the front was really, really stiff and uncomfortable, so I am returning them.

This boot is gorgeous but won't work for me. I have your standard wide, even toes across, German foot. The taper on the boot is significant, so although the Wide boot was plenty wide, it tapered to severely for my last two toes to be comfortable. Overall, it also felt like a half size too big. If you can find your size, I suspect you'll love the boot.

love Blondo but these are a little stiff. I think Blondo runs half a size small in general.

I was excited to find a boot with a wide option. Wide they are not. The 11W I ordered was small and narrow. The heel felt super tight as well. I may try the next size up but I'm not hopeful.

Very pretty taupe color, good neutral. Good waterproof construction. True wide width. Sadly the top of the boot rubbed my ankle terribly :( I kept the Born Bessie- cute, comfy and cut properly for me.

I was so excited about these booties, and they felt great when I tried them on. They are truly waterproof, so when they get wet, they look dry, unlike most suede-type shoes. However, after wearing them all day, I realized they hit me at just the wrong spot on my ankle and rubbed my skin raw. They also have a defect on the heel where the suede is pulled away, but I didn’t notice it until after I’d worn them outside.

I would say these boots are more of a pointed toe, not a round toe at all. They are comfortable but anyone with wide feet would not be able to put them on. They feel like they run a half size large but I think that is because the toe box is so pointed I cannot fill in that space so my foot sort of slides around. I decided to keep them since I wore them outside but for the cost I wouldn't recommend if you want a round toe.

The cognac is a beautiful shoe. Unfortunately it runs a little narrow in the W width. The W feels like a normal, not a wide. Nice zipper.

I ordered the wide and it my wide foot pretty comfortably. The toe is quite pointy and with the plain top it looked more like a cowboy boot than I wanted. Nice boot & waterproof if that is the look you are going for.

The toe was too pointy for my taste.

They're comfortable when you first wear them, but after a month the support felt very thin on the balls of your feet and the top edges of the shoe can rub your ankles if you're not wearing high enough socks. The heel is also extremely loud. No matter how quietly I try to walk, people turn to stare at the unbelievable thud of the shoes. As for the style, it goes well with many of my fall/winter outfits.

Even though I ordered them in wide they still felt tight. Also the leather looked and felt more like suede . I will try another brand.

I sooooo wanted these adoreable WATERPROOF booties to work for me - but alas, although the width was perfect for the widest part of my foot it was too wide for my heel and my foot slipped all over. I tried both the 6 and 6.5 wide, the 6 was a better fit which is consistent with my "true" measured size (though I usually end up getting a 6.5 or 7 to get the proper width for my wide feet. For someone with a wider heel these would be wonderful. They have the support of a good fitting cowboy boot and could easily be dressed up or down. I liked these much better than the Valli, which strangely was much narrower even when I purchased the same size.

These boots were comfortable and well made but they are so plain looking in black. They look like rain boots. I'm sending them back.

Ordered in my normal size and also 1/2 size larger in Dark Taupe Suede. Ordered Wide width hoping for more comfortable fit (a lot of my shoes are regular width): Boot is gorgeous, but couldn't even get my foot inside because it was too narrow. Either I got two oddly made pairs, or else these are made for Cinderella and I'm just a step-sister. So back they went :-(

These are really cute boots. I bought the Mushroom color, which is an attractive taupe. I ordered my usual size of 9.5M. They looked so tiny and narrow I was afraid they wouldn't fit. But when I slipped them on, I was surprised to find that they did feel good and fit my foot well. I was pretty happy, and wore them to work today. Sadly, by lunchtime, the ball of my foot and my toes were starting to ache. This is really disappointing. I think it's because there is very little padding. I tried to put in one of my Ariat liners, but it made the boot too tight. So now I'm stuck with $150 boots that really don't feel good. I'm going to try buying a gel liner that is thinner than my Ariat liner and see if that helps. For this price point, I think that Blondo should add a better insert or more padding. I just hope I can get them to work so I haven't just wasted a big chunk of cash! I probably should have just shelled out big bucks for another pair of La Canadiennes (which are the bomb, btw, total comfort and waterproof, too!) or Franco Sartos, which are cheaper but feel a hell of a lot better.

Beautiful boots, but the pointy toe did not give a wide width at all.
