Customer Reviews UGG Elvia

These boots are really nice! Although I love the more 'traditional' Ugg designs, these have a very different look - more like a fashion boot - but, with all the great Ugg features. Purchased in Olive Green – gorgeous, and this shade is still a really great neutral. You should know that the fleece does not extend all the way down into the 'shoe' (foot) part of the boot. There's a soft fabric lining instead. I wore with a fairly thin pair of socks and they kept my feet warm, dry and comfy during the Mid-Atlantic winter. If you get a lot of snow, though, I’d choose one of the winter-proof styles. I did have to order up from my normal size 10 to a size 11 (which Zappos had!). The size 10 didn't feel too wide or too narrow, but, it did feel 'short'. I was worried about my toes over long periods of wear so I went up the extra size. I would have gotten a 10.5, but, this size wasn't offered. Over all, I am very happy with this beautiful boot!

Pros: great sole traction, nice looking, reasonably comfortable. Cons: zipper was difficult to manage -- I purposefully picked these because I wanted the ease of a zipper, but ultimately found aligning the sides and zipping it shut more difficult than the lace boots I tried on! Also this might be a common feature of zipped boots, but the zipper bends inward and rubs against my ankle as I walk. My old ones did that and it was annoying but not painful; I'd expect these to be the same way. Note: I do have moderately wide calves, but I did not have the same trouble with the tongue that the other reviewer had.
