I ordered my usual size and, with socks, they are very comfortable. I wore them shopping and my feet were not pinched nor sliding nor tired. I'm very happy with my purchase.

I can't believe how much I love these shoes! I don't normally buy leather. And most of the shoes I buy need to have some added inserts to help with comfort and support. These boots are a perfect fit and I've worn them and walked in them for a day and I loved them. The outer tag says "waterproof" but on in the inside of the shoe it says "water resistant," so, who knows? But I do appreciate that they chose the tag with a feature claim over a tag with a brand name. I wish these came in more/better colors because I would buy several pairs. Seriously considering buying a 2nd pair in black as a backup for the someday when these fail.

Fit is accurate. I have one foot smaller than the other so I have to add a pad in one shoe & hope it prevents loose fit in heel. It's a quality shoe, classy simple style. I like the weatherproof feature.

The Best. Right out of the box and took them for a long trip to Portland Oregon where they were just perfect for rain and plenty of walking too. Comfortable and width was perfect. Absolutely no problems. Would buy them again in a minute.

Very nice boot but it is the first time I've ordered this brand and the boot was just too big. Had to return

I needed boots warm enough for winter, waterproof enough for snow and rain, and professional enough to wear with a suit, and these fit the bill on all counts. They are warm enough for sub-zero temperatures and keep my feet dry in snow and slush. They're reasonably easy to clean- I walked through a muddy trail and was able to brush them off when dry. And they're comfortable enough to wear walking and standing all day. The top of the boot doesn't cut into my leg like I saw on some reviews of other boots. Really solid boots all around, and I'm glad I bought them.

Very comfortable boots. They accommodate my orthotics. I usually wear a size 5.5 W or 6. I am new to using orthotics and am trying various boots. The 6 W fit well, and looks good. The black suede is not pure dark black, but more of a "dusty black" when compared with other black suede boots.

Absolutely love these boots. I got them in the widest width available to accomodate thick socks. I have arthritis in my feet, needed waterproof short boots that would deal with rain and snow. This was a Zappos recommendation (including the brand, size and width) and I'm glad I paid attention. These are my new favorite boots.

I love these boots! so much so that I have returned 2 pairs and am hoping the 3rd one fits. I ordered my usual size of 6.5 WW. There was too much room in the toe box and the heel slipped. The 6.5 W was a little better but there was still too much room in the toe box and the heel was wide. Am crossing my fingers that the 6.5B fits! I require inserts for arch support and these boots have a removable liner. I was tempted to order a 6W since the shoe is a little longer than the 6-6.5 insert but since I'm ordering a B width, I decided to stick with the 6.5. am hoping that a "regular" widthe won't have such a wide heel. I've never had problems with heel width before this.

The instep area is big and wide but I'm keeping them anyway. They're soft and warm and waterproof. And they look cute.

I wear a 9.5 EE, so I sometimes have trouble finding shoes that fit well, and especially boots. Zappos is terrific in that I can usually find just what I'm looking for. These boots fit really well, the EE width that I purchased is not quite wide enough for my bunions, but the shoe is flexible enough that it's not a problem. They feel good on my feet, feel nice to the touch, and were comfortable to walk in after a very short break-in period. I also like the flexible sole that gives good traction! I'm in Colorado where we recently had a snow storm and I chose them today over my snow boots.

I've been wearing these every day for a few weeks. They're so comfortable. And they do keep my feet dry in the Pacific NW rain!
The zippers make a little jingling noise when you walk, other than that they are great!
I got the black color, size 10 medium.

I bought these especially for rainy days, and these are doing the job! They look great and are pretty comfy as far as boots go. They do have a slight heel, and for someone who typically wears flat slip-on sneakers, they weren't as comfy as that, especially because I'm not used to standing on a slight incline. I wouldn't go for a long walk in them, but love them for going to work on rainy days or want to be just a little fancier than my sneakers.

These are very cute and waterproof - a big plus. I wanted them for upcoming travel - feeling they would be comfortable for walking and I'd be prepared for rain - but the only width available was a EE- I gave it a try - I thought with my orthotics and heavy socks - it would be okay - but they are just too big and the other sizes/widths are sold out. So - sorry to have to send them back - I'd love to try them again in the right size.

Out of the box, these were extremely comfortable. I could wear them all day doing a lot of walking without any of the usual break-in discomfort. I love the flat heel; it's perfect for those of us who want cute ankle boots but can't do heels. I wish they came in more colors!

While looking for waterproof boots for my trip to Europe I stumbled on this brand and took a chance. They are so comfortable and cute. I can dress them down with jeans or up with a dress.

Never heard of this brand before but I really needed waterproof booties and there is almost no selection for extra wide widths. I have only worn them in light rain so far so I can't say how waterproof they are. I was very impressed by how comfortable they were to walk in. On the second day that I wore them, I had to walk quite a long distance and they were amazingly comfortable. I wear them to work almost every day. I was also surprised and happy to see how nice they look with casual skirts. I wear them with tights or light socks. I would suggest going up half a size if you plan to wear them with heavy socks.

Very comfortable right out of the box. Nice arch support. Great for wearing around the office. Haven't worn them on an all-day walk yet. The warm iron color is a dark taupe-y grey/brown. Looks great with jeans.

Possibly the best pair of shoes I’ve ever owned. I don’t want to take them off (and that’s saying a lot because I love to go barefoot). The color is the perfect grey brown and the style is relaxed.

A cute, well-made boot--I need a wide toe box, and this provided it. It's exactly what I was looking for in a cold-weather bootie--sturdy, but neutral and sleek enough to wear with something dressier than jeans. The warm iron color is a great neutral; definitely more brown than gray, though. Alas, though the toe box is exactly right in the 8.5 D, the heel is really, really roomy--even more than the usual expected with a wide toe box. It's almost as though the heel is longer as well as wide. I tried to order the next size down, but they're out of stock--hoping I'll be able to get it soon, because this is otherwise a great boot.
