Customer Reviews Blondo Villa Waterproof Bootie

Perfect in so many ways! I love how comfortable these are! I just recently heard of the Blondo brand and now I'm a fan.

These are very cute booties and waterproof too. Sadly they were too narrow and so stiff I could hardly get the stuffing out or my foot in. I normally wear a 9W but can usually make do with a 9 1/2 M if the shoe doesn't come in W. This was way too narrow and a bit short. The inside didn't seem cushioned either but it didn't come close to fitting anyway.

These are perfect. So stylish AND comfortable...and waterproof even. Soles are great, too. They just feel and look wonderful.

I can't recommend these boots enough! They look very similar to the Sam Edelman Petty boots, but the heel is slightly higher, the shaft is slightly taller, and the ankle is narrower. The sole also has MUCH more grip, although the heel doesn't seem to be quite the same material on the bottom. I have pretty narrow ankles and I wouldn't want them any tighter. The leather is nice and thick and they seem true to size (whereas I found the Petty's to be a little larger than I expected). I'm between an 8.5 and a 9 and I went with the 9. I was a little hesitant ordering the black leather because I couldn't tell what the material actually looked like... It looks almost like suede or nubuck in some of the pictures. It's definitely leather, but a soft, matte leather (except for a bit of shine around the toes and heels). Haven't tested them out in the rain yet, but they stood up to my long-ish public transit commute, so I'm happy!

Absolutely love these booties! The color is perfect to pair with anything in your fall/winter wardrobe. Plus, they are incredibly comfortable! I could walk in them all day every day (and I'm usually very sensitive to anything with a heel). They look great with all my skinny jean outfits and dresses.

I just received my order and was really excited to try these boots on. However, I couldn't even get my foot into them. I ordered a size 9 and am pretty much a true 9 all around yet I had to look at all size markings in the shoe and on the box to make sure I didn't order the wrong size because there was no way these shoes were a size 9. I thought maybe they were a 6 and the marking was upside down. I compared them to other size 9 shoes I own and they were so much smaller. I would try to order a size up yet I really don't know if this was just a glitch or I would need 2 sizes larger.

Beautiful bootie and waterproof! But sadly the heel was a bit too high for all the walking I do. I tried so hard to make them work.

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!

Absolutely love these boots. Stylish, comfortable, and waterproof "to boot." I have gotten so many compliments. The heel is the perfect height - gives you a nice boost but is still comfortable enough to walk miles in.

These shoes are LOUD! I was hoping to wear these to volunteer at school, but they echoed all throughout the halls. They sound like a clip-clop. My husband calls them the cowgirl boots. Otherwise, an attractive shoe!

These are my first Blondos and I am so happy to have found this brand. I echo all the other positive reviews. The Villa meets the nearly-impossible-to-find combo of both comfort and style. There is room in the toe box without the bootie looking ungainly or awkward on the foot -- the drawback of so many comfort shoes. I am not experiencing any slippage in the heel. The opening fits closely to my ankle, not too tight or loose, and the shaft hits at a flattering spot. The black suede is supple and rich. I also really like the heel. It's chunky but with a bit of a taper, so adds versatility. These look good with cropped skinny jeans, or any jeans for that matter, but can easily transition to a skirt or dress. Amd they feel great! I think they're a good value. I have paid much more for similar quality and style and am very pleased with my purchase.

I have these boots in the Mushroom Suede and they are by far my favorite pair of booties. They are so comfortable and and warm. The color goes with everything. I've had them now for over a year and I keep going back to them. I fully intend on purchasing them in black too!

I debated on returning these because my toes felt a little cramped in the 7.5 (my normal size) and my heel was swimming in an 8. I ended up keeping the 7.5 because the boots had the perfect height and style for me, and they are waterproof which is perfect for walking in the rain to/from work. I've already worn them several times with no issues. The leather is soft and has already stretched a bit to accommodate my slightly wide foot (Mushroom suede). I walked a few miles in the rain in them, and they held up wonderfully and kept my feet dry.

These ankle booties are fantastic. I searched high and low for comfortable, stylish booties---this year and last---and these are the winners. The biggest problem has been choosing which color to keep. The mushroom suede is cute, and I was originally aiming for a practical black leather, but I had to go with the taupe nubuck. It's gorgeous and neutral (darker than photo, and with some grey tones). In terms of fit, my narrow heels slip a little, the toe box is somewhat narrow, and the fit is snug. I got them big enough to fit a slim orthotic insert, and I am finding them to be very comfortable and stylish looking. Not sure I'd walk miles and miles in these, but I definitely expect these shoes to be well used on a daily basis.

Great shoe! Love the color and the heal height. I am on my feet all day and they were comfortable from the first time I wore them. Love how fitted they are around the ankle as well.

The boots look great and are very comfortable. My feet only start to hurt after walking around ALL day - but, that's to be expected of any shoe if you're on your feet all day. I ordered the mushroom suede, fantastic neutral color that goes with anything. My only piece of advice is to be careful with what pants/jeans you wear with them. I had a dark pair of jeans rub some color onto the top part of the boot. I was able to clean it with some suede cleaner and a suede brush, but I will be careful of it in the future.

I've had these boots for a few weeks now and every time I wear them I marvel at how much I LOVE them! They are the most comfortable boots I own, and so so stylish. I love the matte black color, the minimalist aesthetic, and the low heel. They have a soft fabric lining that is just slightly padded. Most of my boots squish my pinky toe after a few hours of wear, but these are comfortable all day long. I haven't been able to test their waterproofing yet but the peace of mind knowing I can wear them in any weather is a huge plus for me. I will be buying more Blondo boots for sure! My usual size 7 fit a teensy bit loose in the heel but no slipping. I ordered a 6.5 too and those were definitely too small, so I'd say they're true to size.

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

I tried several ankle booties and these were the best! They are extremely comfortable, yet stylish with the toe not too round nor too pointed. I was on my feet for most of 8 hours the first day I wore them and pleased that they did not require time to break in. The fact that they are waterproof is a nice bonus, and will make them even more versatile for travel.

This is a beautiful boot! It’s comfortable and I love that it is waterproof. I had to return it only because the height of the heel is just a bit too high for me to wear comfortably.

I typically wear a 9.5. My feet are narrow (more so in the heel than the toe) and low volume. These shoes were true to size, but I would say that for a medium foot, the toe box would be far too narrow, even though the suede is soft and could potentially stretch. It was a bit too narrow for me and I'm not a big fan of breaking in a shoe. Also, there is really no cushioning on the footbed and my heel slipped a bit.

Wearing this boot was torturous. The top of the boot dug into my ankle and left angry red marks. I wore them for about an hour and was hobbling around in pain. They are really cute though and seem well constructed. Too bad it made me feel like my feet were being slowly amputated.

LOVE. Perfect! I ordered so many similar to these but this pair was the clear winner in color, style, fit, comfort, heel height, shaft height... AND then they're waterproof to boot! AMAZING!!!!!! :D

Stylish AND comfortable! Easy to wear. Very comfortable Love them with skinnies or leggings! Great with dresses too
