Customer Reviews Johnston & Murphy Connelly Wing Tip Boot

This boot was really comfortable except for the top inside brad dug into both ankles and bruised them. I thought I may need to break them in and soften the leather but I couldn't stand wearing them the next day. With that said I have a lot of Johnston & Murphy shoes; they have always been great shoes and the company stands by the product.

They look great, but the true cost is somewhere around twice the price they quote... you will have to replace them no less than once a year. I have had 6 pairs now (brown and black), and the heel comes off at least once a year. But I'm committed to them because of how great they look . Just be prepared - it does makes travelling a real challenge because you always have to bring a spare set of non-JM shoes. It's no fun walking around with your left leg one inch shorter than your right leg. And kind of embarrassing during important meetings

I love this shoe. and most JM shoes. However, JM can not make a shoe lace to save their lives. Mine broke in less than a month and JM has very little help options to replace them

I love a wingtip boot. I bought these and the lug split in less than a year. I have typically had a great experience with Johnston and Murphy and want to keep them as a future option so I hope they get the quality issues addressed. I wish they had a wingtip boot with a lug sole but had a little dressier cordovan option.

That's right - its my last pair. After 3 attempts to get a boot from Johnston and Murphy that can keep a heel, I have given up. I own 5 other pairs of JM shoes, but my customer experiences have been horrible. While the lady who took my call was kind enough - she is hamstrung by policy. I have had 2 other pairs of JM boots, the Welsh i believe that also lost their heels that I returned to a store and exchanged, actually being charged for the last pair. On september 23, 2023, I acquired the boot I'm posting to. I have worn them maybe 30 days to work, and office job. Today, while walking to a meeting, the heel fell off. Where I am frustrated is what I need to do - drive almost an hour away, ship a package, I took photos of the heel, the condition of the shoe, the markings inside.... but alas, its now my job to fix what clearly must be a problem with the shoes. While i like the look, I can no longer vouch for JM. Beyond frustrated... can anyone recommend a quality boot??

I own a pair, these are very stiff at the bottom- looks great but cracked outer bottom sole after just few uses. If you want boots to look great on the shelf, then buy this. If you want boots to wear, consider higher quality boots. These are definitely not worth the price. I can load pictures, you can see the boot pretty much new but dry, broken at the bottom from lightly being used. If the bottom sole was more flexible, then this would be a 5 star- otherwise not worth the price.

They gave me a big blister on the heel. Wish I can take them back

After 6 months of occasional wear ( about 10 total wears) the heel broke off during a vacation. Real shame, good looking boots and comfortable. But very upset that the right sole of the heel completely detached.
