Customer Reviews Born Harding

I love Born boots and own several pairs but, it has been a while since I purchased new ones. The foot part of the boot fits as expected and has some nice cushioning and support; the heel is the perfect medium height. I am, however, a little disappointed in the quality of these boots. The leather is of lesser quality than previous Born boots and almost looks fake - it does not even smell like leather. Also, the right calf fits perfectly while the left calf appears to be cut slightly smaller (I can still zip it but it is quite snug). All in all, I like the style and general fit of the boot and will likely keep them.

Heel is higher than pictured

Boot felt great, but my calf was too large so I couldn't zip it up. Unfortunately, I will have to return. I didn't see a wide calf option.

Heel higher than pictured

I always know that Born will be comfortable. After doing extensive searching for a plain but elegantly styled black boot, I chose Born's Harding. It's comfortable, looks great, and the price is reasonable for a great fit. Only wish that they would make one in a taupe or brown leather.

I loved the style of these boots and I felt they were well constructed. They run true to slightly small - I normally wear a 7 or 7.5, and the 7.5 in these was snug but not tight. On me, they splay outward at the top, but that's probably due to me being a bit knock-kneed. Also the top of the left boot was bent outward for some reason, either a defect or due to storage. So I returned them, but may try again next year...

They are too small/narrow even though I ordered them in a larger size than usual. Could be me, could be the bookmaker -either way I need to return them
