Customer Reviews Native Shoes Fitzsimmons Treklite

This is the second round for me. First I ordered this boot (the Utili green/spice red/onyx black color) in the size 10 (I am a size 9.5, but half sizes are not available.). It was way too small; my toe was pushing up against the front of the boot. But I absolutely loved the style, so I returned it in favor of the next size up - an 11! Now, this one is not only way too big, but the top of the boot rubs against my leg. I could just see a future of sores forming, as I tested it by walking around the apartment. So, I have to return this pair, as well. Now, I am back to searching for a vegan, waterproof boot. Cannot wait until us vegans grow in number, so that we can choose from better quality foot wear.

I really wanted to like these, but they were a definite no-go on all levels. They ran a bit short, had no built-in support and really, unfortunately, looked a bit cheap in person. I understand they are vegan, but the craftsmanship should still mimic "non-vegan" shoes.

I love the look of this boot, and am a vegan, which means (unfortunately) that my choices are limited. My regular shoe size is 9.5, but there are no half sizes available, so I ordered the Women's 10, thinking it should be fine. Wow, was I mistaken. My toe was hitting the very tip of the front of the shoe. I will return these and order the size 11!! Buyer beware. Order up!

I don't know who these would fit. The heel has WAY too much room, and the toe narrows and has less. They are very odd in shape, and did not fit at all. In addition, the quality isn't very great, and if these were $30-40 I'd say they'd be pretty good shoes, but for $95, I expect a lot more out of these, and they didn't live up to expectations at all. I returned them.

These boots are good. They look fantastic! They feel alright, more like rubber boots.

I normally wear a 6.5 in a shoe/boot, this only comes in full sizes so I "ordered up" and even without a sock (clean foot!) my toe rubbed like crazy just in the few steps I took. I feel this boot is quite small (short). It's "cute" enough that I'm going to reorder in a size larger...it needs an insert for arches anyway so I'm hopeful it works. I can't rate it for comfort as I haven't worn the boot.

Got these in women’s 11/men 9 (I wear women’s 11). I bought them because I needed an explicitly stiff sole for hiking due to a mild toe injury and otherwise didn’t want much of a boot/fuss on top. Turns out, they are easily the most adorable boot I have ever seen in real life. I am in love with the way they look. Holy heck they are cute. I can’t even. SO CUTE! BUT! Not functional. And that was why I bought them. And now I’m heartbroken because I can’t rationalize keeping them. They did deliver on the stiff sole and simple design. They are extraordinary warm, owing to the vegan leather/almost seamless construction. The footbed *JUST* fit me—no rubbing there. But I tried them on with my thinnest socks and could tell I wouldn’t want to go thicker. The real issue was the construction on the back of the ankle shaft. It was absolutely rigid. Even with the laces untied on the top loop eyelets to give extra space for my leg to flex, they just dug in so hard on my lower calf/upper ankle with every small step I took while testing them. They are so insanely cute I still tried to rationalize some scenario where I could just wear them while sitting and not move, but horribly even sitting they dug in back there. And unless I can manage to lose weight in my ankles (which I also briefly considered), I can’t keep them. ??
