Customer Reviews Blondo Villa Waterproof Bootie

Completely disappointed in this shoe! The sizing is so off that it’s hard to believe! I initially ordered a 7.5 W. It was in fact NARROW! I took a chance and decided to order an 8.5 W, and it was *at best* a normal width! Such a shame for such an expensive shoe, and one that is waterproof at that. With the sizing this demonstrably incorrect, I won’t be ordering Blondo shoes again. They need a serious look into their sizing.

I’m incredibly disappointed. My feet seem to have grown half a size or so, and many of my shoes are too narrow. Since I already have two pairs of Blondo booties, that sadly no longer fit, I wanted to try the wide version of the the Villa bootie. I tried an 8 wide instead of the 8 regulars that I already own, expecting to find a cute shoe. So you might imagine my disappointment to find that the wide was exactly the same size and width as the regular. In fact, my old brown bootie felt more spacious, I’m sure due to stretch. I feel like Blondo played a mean trick on me, and I’m done with this brand. Finding business casual, waterproof shoes is difficult, and now I need to find something else for wintery days at the big city office.

I'm a true 7.5. I only wear 7.5 on any shoes including sneakers. I have a fairly narrow foot but high arch so with that combo most shoes fit TTS. These fit when I tried them on but start to feel really tight across the width and toe area after maybe 1/2 hr and even worse if I'm doing a lot of walking. I don't find them to be any more padded or comfortable than a standard shoe. More comfy than Nine West but typical Lucky Brand type comfort. Not like a "comfort" shoe at all. Since they fit during try-on but not during wear I can't return them now since I didn't realize how tight until walking in them for a bit. Bottom-line expensive shoes in the Goodwill bin. Bummer.

I purchased the taupe nubuck to wear on a trip to Greece and Italy because I wanted a waterproof bootie that was both practical and stylish. They are very comfortable and are now my favorite booties.

These shoes are awesome. I put orthotics in them and wore them walking around Ireland for a week in May. Despite the rain and all the walking, my feet felt fine and the shoes still look great! I love the waterproof quality of these shoes. Stylish yet functional!

Wow these booties feel great! I wish it were cold all year so I could wear them more. They feel amazing on my 12 W feet, and make my legs look great with the slight heel. They are comfortable for walking and standing, even. They're not hard to get in to, my foot slides right in and has a lot of support.

These are my favorite winter boots for life in the city. They're so comfortable and have such good arch support that I can walk miles in them.

These boots traveled to Germany in 2019, and I wear them almost daily during the winter where I live.

Love this bootie. Ready to buy again but can’t find the snakeskin print. :(

Biondos on par with ECCOS except Biodos have heel which I like.

These shoes are so comfortable and stylish!! I love them so much! I can wear them all day in reasonable comfort too!

so comfortable. I bought two pair

I LOVE THESE BOOTIES! I bought them two years ago, and they're still my go-to shoe when it starts getting wet outside. They've held up well and are still comfy. I love them so much that I'm thinking about taking them to a cobbler to just revitalize them a bit because they definitely look like I've been wearing them constantly for two years.

Very cute! Lives up to my expectations of a good show from Blondo. The color wasn’t what I expected; it’s more greenish than brown. Fits well.

These boots were perfect right out of the box. So comfortable and the exact color that I was looking for!

I love these boots - the heel is the perfect height and they are very comfortable. Just a heads up that the size 10 is a 41 and the size 11 is a 43. The boots run true to size and I kept the size 10.

Wonderful boot - comfortable, stylish and very well made.

I bought these boots because a ton of blogs said these are great for travel because they are waterproof and walkable. They did not disappoint. I like them so much I bought them in mushroom suede and black suede. I’ve had them for over a year and they have made many trips with me. Of course, I also wear them around my home city. And, I wore them for a socially distanced thanksgiving because I knew I’d be standing in grass, and I knew they would be fine if I accidentally stepped in mud (or worse ?). I do find that these feel ever so slightly narrow if I wear thick socks. Not narrow enough to size up, just enough to be a mild discomfort. But, I don’t often feel the need to wear thick socks, so it is not typically an issue.

Ordered wide as that’s what I always do. Could not fit me feet even into the opening. If you are traditionally a standard wide, these unfortunately will not work

I love these shoes, both the fit (very comfortable) and the style. I wear them all the time.

Well, I'm back. Bought these a couple of years ago in grey. They are my go-to shoes for outdoor wear that is anything but hiking. They truly are waterproof and I can wear them all day with absolutely no discomfort. They are fine with jeans, but also can be worn with a skirt and tights. Today I am buying them in brown.

Love this boot already have it in Black but found the grey much cheaper thru Amazon.

Love these boots! Super comfortable and cute!

I love these boots. Comfortable fit and really nice non-slip tread. I wish they had different colors available in my size.

I enjoy wearing them. I break my shoes in gradually. But I know they will be my go to Shoe for out and about
