Customer Reviews Walking Cradles Esme

I love these boots so much !! They are so cute. So incredibly comfortable. The arch support is excellent. I have them in black and brown.

These were nice soft leather, fit perfectly with nice height in the toe box. Want them in black leather but sadly that is not available in my size.....

Love these boots. Just what I was hoping for.

Leather is soft and supple. The shoe is comfortable; and perfect for my situation (Wyoming). I can wear them in light Winter conditions (snow) but the style is refined enough to look good in drier Fall and Spring weather as well. I liked them well enough to purchase a second pair in a different color.

These are those rare boots you slip on and know you will be wearing them everywhere, from work to casual nights out to running errands. They're soft, comfortable, great looking and just perfect! I LOVE these boots. I have a narrow foot and am a true 10 and 1/2, which makes shoe buying really difficult for me. These fit like a glove, are very cushy and have great arch support. I can walk a ways in them without my feet getting sore at all. And they're very cute.

My foot is a 9.5 in length but a 10 or 11 in width. I got these booties in a 9.5 W and they are like wearing SLIPPERS. No rubbing on my big toe knuckles and no rubbing on the outside of my pinkie toes. They are cushy and supple. Good height on the shaft so it doesn't rub on my ankles. They are very good-looking boots! I'll wear them with everything!

These boots are ah-may-zing! They fit like a dream, perfectly true to size and snug (with thin or medium socks ... I probably could not wear these with thick socks) but not tight. They are super comfortable and actually have a decent amount of support. Though there is a short heel, they're very comfortable to walk in. (I'd walk several blocks easily, maybe not a whole day of walking around a city, for me at least.) They're nice, stylish everyday boots and they look great with jeans and a jacket.

Fairly comfy sole but not much arch support. They run long so need a half size smaller. Leather is supple and I ankle size was fine for me

I took a chance packing these for a trip the next day. Always a gamble but I was so happy with the fit, durability and look. We got snow two days and they stayed warm and dry. Had a little issue with the right shoe zipper being more difficult than the left but nothing a little wiggling didn’t fix. Happy, happy.

I was apprehensive about buying these shoes due to some of the reviews, but I am glad I did. I am a size 5.5M and ordered accordingly. I have a slightly wider foot, but the toe box is roomy enough without making the shoe look awkward. The shoe is very versatile--I can wear it to work or out casually. Great purchase!

I love them...I'm ordering another pair, this time for my daughter!

These have a pretty roomy fit. I ordered my usual size but a wider width to make sure that I’d be able to use orthotics and wear heavy socks with them, and they still have plenty of room for my toes to wiggle and don’t feel tight at all. They’re not super supportive on their own, which I knew going in, thus the orthotics, but I’ve been able to wear them to work on my feet for eight hours straight and not come home limping. Also, they’re cute, the price is reasonable, they aren’t falling apart yet even though I wear shoes pretty hard, and they have a good tread and a low heel so they have served me well on snow and ice.

I have been looking for a pair of booties that were stylish but comfortable. I have back and foot problems and it is very difficult to find a good fiiting shoe. I put these on when I received them and was so happy that they were perfect in every way! I highly recommend these shoesa. They are great!

Daughter liked these boots a lot and she is very difficult to fit and to please. She has a slightly wider toe box and rather narrow ankle. She has worn them for a week now and we are ordering her another pair in black. They look good on, are comfortable, and easy on/off.

These boots were perfect the moment I put them on. They are my favorite! I wear an 11 WW, and there wasn't too much leather across the front as other reviews have stated. So comfortable - I highly recommend!

These ankle boots are awesome! I have difficulty finding shoes for my wide toe area and not having the shoe slip on my ankle. These boots did the trick and were comfortable from the moment I put them on. I have worn them several times in the short time I've had them and am amazed at the comfort. I've had other Walking Cradles and this is the brand for me.

Slightly snug- need thin socks- but pretty good arch support!

Purchased an 8.5 W. I was able to wear these "almost" right out of the box... The 8.5 W gave me enough room to add an additional arch support 3/4 insole. My right foot is slightly wider than my left, so the right bootie will require a small bit of stretching in the toe box to be perfect, but was still wearable for several hours! Perhaps because I had filled in some space with the added 3/4 insole, but unlike many shoes/boots I've tried in the past, these did NOT slip around in the heel... in other words, my heels did not slip up & down, but remained comfortably in place! At one time, shoes were made with a "combination last", so people like me, with a narrow heel, but a wide forefoot, could be comfortable fitted. That is sadly, no longer the case... These do work for me though!

Very comfortable, but have to add arch insert so my ankle won’t turn.

Finally! I found a pair of shoes that fit! Of course, I also finally ordered half a size larger. Evidently, turning 60 means a new shoe size. I do wish more designers would include a stretch panel to accommodate larger ankles - I can't quite get the zipper all the way up. Thank you for your patience as I ordered and returned so many pairs over the last year.

The insoles on these feels a little strange, a bit like walking on very large, very firm bubble wrap. Once I get used to it, I think they'll be fine. There is a bit of firmness in the leather on the front of the ankle, but the only reason I really notice it is because the rest of the leather is SOOO soft.

loved the soft brown leather but no arch support. Insoles do not come out so putting in orthotic did work making the shoe itself way too tight. I think if the insole could be removed they would have worked. sadly they go back

Nice fit. Felt true to size. The ankle was a smidge tight, but my ankles have gotten a little bigger, with age. They are not tight enough to bother me while walking.

Very comfortable!

Comfortable shoe. Typical Walking Cradles insole. Super soft leather - maybe too soft? Not sure how it would wear. Easy zipper. Roomy instep. The toebox is roomy, but the shape reads a little...ungraceful - between rounded and almond shape. Made in Ethiopia.
