Customer Reviews Cole Haan Isabell Stretch Boot

Best boots for narrow calves! I have such a hard time finding boots to fit me correctly because 99% of the boots out there are way too big in the calves. These give a beautiful, custom fit since they are stretchy in the back. These are about $200 more than what I was expecting to pay when I started my search, but I knew as soon as I saw them online that they were going to be perfect. And they are. Comfortable right out of the box and feel great. I am going to wear these a ton for years to come - that is how I justified spending way out of my budget. But I'd rather spend more on quality that will last than buying boots every year and not being 100% happy with them.

I always have a hard time finding shoes that fit my narrow foot, and especially boots that fit my narrow ankles and calves. Usually, I look like a potted plant sticking out of a large container! I was in a retail store, looking for some specific black boots and found these. But the price was outrageous! I loved these boots, but regretfully walked away. I came home and looked on Zappos to joyfully discover they were much cheaper than in the store (they are normally $300!). In addition, I have had a discount code just waiting, so I applied it to this order and got these fabulous boots at a fraction of the cost hey were asking n the store. They are beautifully slim, the heel height is perfect, the little buckle detail is stylish, the back quilted side gives them a bit of flair, and the excellent quality of the leather is outstanding. They are super comfortable and clearly a quality product that I will enjoy for many years to come. I don't usually write reviews, but for me and my quirky needs, I found these to be perfect for me and wanted to share the love!!! And I also got 1-day shipping! I couldn't be happier with these boots. Thank you, Zappos!!

Took a chance and ordered these boots online without trying them on.....and sooooo glad I did! Love everything about them. I'm very picky about heel height, fit in the leg and having a quality, leather boot. These boots are beautiful and fit perfectly! I am a Frye lover and now I'm adding Cole Haan to my list of go-to designers! Oh, and shout out to Zappos for shipping them in one business day because I downloaded and ordered through their mobile app!

These boots are amazing! I was looking for good quality boots that that felt comfortable all day to wear but still have a high caliber style. These boots are it. I’ve never bought boots this expensive but let me tell you, it’s worth it! The boot has a small shaft which was nice for my thin calves and the material is flexible. I have flat feet so this boot was perfect because it has little to no arch support. The fabric in the back of the boot is flexible and adds a nice touch to the overall look. The boot itself (where your foot goes) demands a thinner sock. However, even after only 3 days of wearing, they stretched a little enough so I could wear a little thicker sock (which is what I kind of sock I wear majority of the time). I wore them straight out of the box to an 8 hour work day. I highly recommend these boots for you even if you are going back and forth with another brand- choose these!!

This is a beautiful boot. Very stylish and rich looking leather. Love the weave on the back of these boots and hoped that the stretch would accommodate my athletic calves. Unfortunately, I could barely zip the boot and they were extremely tight so I'll be returning them.

Material did not feel like leather; it felt like a synthetic. Calf was snug which I anticipated given the reviews.

The shape of the boot is lovely. The footbed is comfortable and the shaft fit my narrow leg. Unfortunately I am not keeping them because the leather is very poor quality and looks like it got wet and rippled.

With muscular calf’s these boots had the stretch to fit great! Comfortable and awesome looking!!

Absolutely love these boots! The quality is consistent with Cole Haan, soft leather and the stretch fabric down the back of the boot is lovely. The footbed is padded making them very comfortable for walking. I have a hard time finding boots that don't gape around my calves and these fit perfect. However, they would work well for those with larger calves due to the stretch fabric in the back. Classic and elegant boot for any occasion.

These boots are gorgeous. The leather smells wonderful, the quality is great and the style is just what I was looking for. Unfortunately for me, the calf size is too big.

These fit true to size. I wear a 9 and it fit perfectly. I really love this boot. I needed a dressy boot and this worked perfectly. They are very comfortable as well.

Great fit, so comfortable right out of the box. Looks stylish. Compliments from envious friends. Highly recommend. Purchased the 7M.

These are great boots for this sale price. I usually order 7W for Cole Haan shoes (bunions), but they didn't have the W option for these boots. Yet the width is fine for me. I have a hard time finding boots that fit tightly enough on my calves. These could be even tighter if I am wearing leggings, but for jeans these are perfect.

these boots fit my foot like a glove and comfort is key to me. the stretchy material on the back of the calf fits my slender legs and looks very dressy. I love them!

the fit on the foot was perfect and very comfortable but shoe makers forget that people with a size 5-5.5 foot are also not as tall and they need to decrease height of shaft so it is not rubbing knee with every step. Had to return unfortunately:(

The part where you zip the boot up was to small, it wouldn’t go pass my calf , but the foot part was extremely comfortable, these boots are so nice, wish I could’ve kept them, and I think I have fairly moderate sized legs and I couldn’t get the zipper up comfortably pass mid- calf so disappointing.

Love these boots! Perfect boot if you have thin legs and somewhat narrow feet, I usually wear a 9 but in these boots I got an 8.5, fits really well with socks and over leggings. I wasn't sure about the stretchy back of the boot but I like the way it looks and it really hugs your leg, nice and warm!

These boots fit my slim calves great! I have had a hard time finding knee high boots that are not so big at the top. I usually wear size 8 1/2 in shoes but I ordered a size 9 because I like to wear medium to thick socks. The size is just right. They are moderately comfortable. I have not tried wearing them all day yet.

I have about 8 pairs of Cole Haan boots and I wear size 8 medium. These boots run a half size smaller...the 8 fits like a 7.5. I even compared the soles to confirm and they are 1/2 inch smaller. I have super skinny calves and it was snug zipping these with only thin pants on. I’m not sure it would zip over jeans. These boots are super cute, but run small.

I really wanted to love these! They are a perfect transitional boot- can go either casual or a little more dressy. BUT- the calf is too wide (my calves are about average, maybe a little less) and the gap made these boots look sloppy. It took me a few days to decide whether I was willing to keep them. I love the flexible backing material, this would make them comfortable for longer periods of wear. However....the gap...I just decided they are not for me!

I'm on the short side and these boots were just a little to long for me.

This was not a pretty boot. It has fabric on the back side and is, in my opinion, just unattractive.
