Customer Reviews Forsake Thatcher

Absolutely love these shoes. I’ve had mine now since January, and they’ve held up great with weekly wear. They are definitely weather resistant, I wore them for a week on vacation in Colorado in the ice and snow, and my feet stayed warm and dry. It’s an added plus that they have sturdy footing, feel like sneakers, and the high top design is great for hiking (no rolled ankles!). They felt true to size, a little tight at first but fit great with thick or thin socks for all seasons. I would definitely recommend these shoes.

I was very excited to receive these boots. Then I tried to get my foot into them. These run very small. Yes, I had heavy socks on (which is how I would wear them), but they were at least a half size too small. I will try a half size larger. Also, the leather was very scratched up on each boot. Almost seemed like someone had worn them....

Super cute and comfy. I usually wear wide sizes, but this felt fine on me. I was really (positively) surprised by the out-of-box comfort of this hiking boot. Can’t wait to try them out.

It looks cheap cause it’s foam and rubber and very lightweight. But don’t get it twisted. These are durable af for being lightweight. They are comfy and feel great on my feet after a 12 mile hike and they’re holding on strong even after slipping and sliding down rocks and trucking through dirt and mud.

The wrong size was sent. The shoe was a 7.5 in a 8.5 box. Choose other boot sent instead.

The sizing on the box label differs from the size chart listed on Zappos. Forsake 8.5 is 39.5 not 39. Since I usually wear 8.5, which is usually 39, in boots, according to the Zappos size chart that would have been a size 8 which concerned me with the thought of adding boot socks. Fortunately I went with my usual size of 8.5 boots and these fit well. My foot is narrow and I have small ankles. With boot socks these are a favorite. Plus, I love that these are real leather. Planning to add a leather protectant and I think they will buff nicely. These also come with two sets of laces, brown and green.

True to size, very comfortable. The padding seems more for cold weather, I will keep for winter months! Might be too warm for summer months.

The shoe fits nicely and is very comfortable. I dressed them up with red shoe laces and love to wear them.

I purchased these in September 2021 and I’ve had the chance to hike in these boots a few times now over the months. I absolutely love them. They’ve hiked some wet and slippery uphill hikes in Vermont and most recently Enchanted Rock and they performed beautifully. Great support and have held up well. I also love that they’re not hideous like most hiking boots. They were true to size for me, and I have a wider foot with a high instep.

Comfortable, very stylish and light in weight. Fit is perfect. Only wore them for a few minutes prior to a trip and then the next day, I wore them for a hike in Yosemite. Very comfortable and no blisters! I previously had a trimalleoar ankle surgery (steel rod and screws inserted) so I was concerned that I might have some issues with rubbing on my ankle. These hiking boots are great with no problems.

These boots fit really well. They were comfortable. I ultimately returned them because they weren't quite what I was looking for.

The boots are comfortable and the footbed is roomy for those of us with slightly wider feet. Don't agree with previous reviewer who said they were too small. I thought they were almost too big around the ankle and would require thicker socks than I usually wear. Felt they were too boxy and might cause a stumbling hazard while for me but the main reason I'm returning them is the color. The black wasn't available in my size. Ordered color that is supposed to be "gunmetal" but they actually look like a brownish green and this isn't what I was hoping for.

Overall really like the look of these boots. There is too much padding around the ankles for me. Not what I was looking for so they had to go back.

I bought this in a 7 thinking i would need extra room for thick socks. I should have gone with 6.5. Its a nice looking boot. Very stiff. Since I got too big, I have to return so I cant speak to wear. I would get your true size.

I got these boots because they said they were waterproof. The right boot is waterproof, the left boot is not. I do not walk in puddles just grass. I didn't realize that Zappos sold seconds.

Don't know how they fit because when I searched for boots I selected Vegan boots in the filter. These are not vegan so returned right away.
