Customer Reviews L.L.Bean Stonington Boots Moc Toe

Chafes painfully on one ankle. After many days I'm still hoping it will break in so I don't end up limping home. Frustrating because apart from that it is a very good fit, although cold from city sidewalks comes up through the soles in mid-twenties temperatures.

I haven't had these for very long so I can't speak on how well they hold up. If you are looking for footwear that is constructed like a boot these are not it. If you are looking for a warm, comfortable sneaker to wear in the winter then these are ok. I think the price is high for what you are getting. I would probably give these 4 stars if they were $60

Comfy boots however bottom tread didn't last long at all. Only had them for a few months and it's wearing down way faster then last pair.

I'm choosing my words carefully as I am a huge, longtime fan of LL Bean. Boots - especially - are unquestionably the symbol of your company. I have always expected and received top notch products with exceptional workmanship. This pair of boots did not meet expectations as the stitching is coming apart at the back. I brought them in to our local store and spoke to a manager. She was apologetic and kindly explained that we were one week past the one year return window. I did understand that and realize that there was nothing she could offer but thought she should see my concern in person. I trust reviews posted here so am adding mine on this boot. I don't feel that they are representative of the LLBean quality and workmanship of old. Will probably try another vendor for our next boot.

Love how the look, love how they feel. Hate that within two weeks the soles separated from the boot. I've glued them about ten times, contacted customer service numerous times. I'm currently looking for a similarly styled boot just not sold by llbean. Very disappointing. Not a quality boot.

May be just fine for some folks, but I found the boot to be stiff and uncomfortable. Not Bean's usual quality product. I returned them.

I ordered the light tan colored leather version of this boot and immediately loved how lightweight they are. Everything about them seemed well crafted. I ordered a replacement silver/white set of boot laces that really make them look great. I would have rated these as a five star purchase, but the rubber tread has separated from the softer foam-type material of the sole at the toe of the boot and it continues to get worse. They are only a few months old and I don't wear them daily, so I'm very disappointed with the low quality of the material and design of the soles. No need to supply a photo as I've seen others uploaded with the same complaint.

The build quality seemed great but the boot's design put a couple of very tight spots of pressure at the places where the tongue and upper join across the top of the foot. It wasn't too narrow except for those two spots but it was enough to be exceedingly uncomfortable. I returned immediately.

These were falling apart within two weeks of use. And I had to pay to send the shoddy product back. I will not buy another product from LL Bean.

I bought these for my husband in black. They were incredibly cool looking but after he work them once he experienced incredible pain in the ball of his left foot. We've bought several pair of ll bean boots but this one didn't hit the quality bar for us unfortunately. I'm going to work with customer service to address and I know they will take care of us.

I don't understand how these boots have such high ratings from others. These boots are incredibly stiff and have absolutely zero cushioning. Unwearable, if you ask me. Returned immediately after receiving them.

Thread broke on top of boot and split a few months after purchase. Just used to work in my yard. Not robust construction at all. Definitely would not buy for a construction job.

They posted an add for a 50% off sale for this product and it is not available in 99% of the expected sizes.

Comfortable but absolutely zero grip. First day I wore them my foot slipped off the brake pedal and onto the accelerator. Rear-ended the car in front of me.

The stitching came apart and the soul ripped off on one of the toes within 8 months of purchase. Casual wear and not rugged work wear. Quality has come down.

Style is great quality is very poor. I am on my second pair within 1 year. Stitching on both pairs pulled apart. Casually worn. Unfortunately quality is not what it use to be.

I bought these boots and after 18 months of average seasonal use, the bottom separated . I called and was told that the shoe has a one year guarantee only. This was the only time i ever called in 20 years ! Can no longer count on quality of L.L Bean quality!

I bought these three months ago and they are already falling apart. I will not be buying anything from LL Bean again.

I have had these for about 9 month and the stitching split open on the left shoe where the apron and upper come together. Not real hard use either. Disappointing. NOT recommended.

Ordered my normal size, 8.5. Could fit two fingers between my heel and the back of the boot. Not happy that I had to pay for return shipping. Four decades of customer loyalty vaporized, last purchase.

I bought a pair of Stonington Boots for my husband in November 2020. They were not this exact style, but had the exact soles that these do. He wore them for 6 months max. When he put them on in Dec. 2021, they leaked. I tried to get LLBean to help, but because I purchased them llllone month over the guarantee time, they refused to give me a replacement or even credit. These boots are made of cheap materials and the soles did wear out in 6 months. He did not wear them in the summer. Their customer service was poor also. L L Bean is not what it used to be.

These are NOT real work boots, they fell apary after only a few days of work. Stitching came apart all around the "moc toe" design - waste of money.....

Good quality leather, however these boots are not easy to put on or take off. Strategically only wear these boots when you wont be needing to take them off during the day

Boots came apart at the heel after the 3rd wear. Also, this is a medium comfort boot, not worth the money.

Rubber perimeter outsole came off within a month of purchase. I don't recommend buying this type of shoes.
