Customer Reviews Oboz Sapphire Mid BDry

Seemed a bit flimsy for anything but short hikes. Wide enough in the toe but toe box was too shallow -- squished my toes down.

Toe box was too shallow

These are the most beautiful hiking boots I've ever seen, with sturdy construction and excellent support for high arches and weak ankles. However, they run a half size small in length. The dealbreaker is that I ordered them in wide, but they are so narrow that I don't think even sizing up will help it fit me. The wide size listing is misleading! I'm very disappointed, and will be returning them. If you have narrow feet, you should get these without skipping a heartbeat.

I love the way these boots look. The foot bed feels both supportive and comfortable. The only problem is that the ankle feels like it has too much thick stiff padding. I was concerned the ankle would rub and cause blisters. I returned for the low version of these which I love and feel amazing right out of the box.

I wear a 10.5 AAAA shoe. I did find this boot to be narrow enough. However the arch support was located too far back towards the heel and was very uncomfortable.

I wanted love these. The color was fun, the quality very good, but they are too narrow for my feet. I wear and 8.5 but ordered a 9 which was perfect in length. But even with thinish socks, boots too narrow. Had to return.

I have a narrow feet and was surprised when I found these to be tight across my forefoot. The model in the store fit fine so maybe they stretch? Not a lot of cushion or shock absorption. The outer material is great and should be great on muddy trails. It’s very cute on, great colors, good shape. I’m returning due to the width.

This was a great hiking boot except for the fact it was hurting my right ankle. I returned them, thanks Zappo’s!!, and got the Oboz low BDry, which are perfect!

The shoe is tight around the toes when wearing a good HIKING sock with added arch support. It was difficult for me to lace up to make enough room for my foot to slide into the shoe. I am returning them only due to sizing. OBOZ are a great shoe but it seems as though the manufacturer got the wrong measurements for me.

Shoe was short and toe box was tight. I assumed that I could order my regular size in this brand but I was wrong.

disappointing fit and overall construction. The sole was so thin at the forefoot and the ankle area seams rubbed as soon as I laced them up. They are going back.

These boots feel great but they do not perform well on the trail. They are mediocre on dry, sandy terrain and loose rocks, but they really fall short on wet terrain. The traction is totally inadequate. The only reason I give them 2 stars is because they're so comfy.

This boot was cheaply made. Oboz was making good boots, really good boots, don't know what happened there. But this boot is not made for anyones trail. No support.

I was really looking forward to having these boots. Unfortunately I was sent the wrong item. When I tried to order them again you no longer had them.

While I'm sure these boots work for other people, they destroyed my feet! Within a couple of hours of wearing them around I had 2 blister on my heels and my pinky toes were rubbed raw and bleeding. My big toe was so crammed that the impact actually loosened it and now it has turned black and is starting to lift up off the toe bed. I ordered a size larger than I usually wear and they were still too small, tight and rigid. To be fair, I have a friend that ordered the same boots and she has had more success than I.

Although I have ordered other Oboz Sapphire boots and loved them, these chafe my right ankle. Therefore, I have to return them.

The boot has a very high arch bump that's in the wrong place for my foot. I returned them. I was looking for something to replace my Ahnu boots which are no longer made. These Oboz are not an Ahnu fit. I now have a Teva boot that is great. I don't like big firm arch supports, I'd rather have a more minimalist sole with just some heel support.
