Adorable and comfy, but a few little issues
These are the cutest boots ever, and I really love them. I’d have given them 4.5 stars, but that’s not an option. For a 5, things need to be perfect for me. The suede looks good, is relatively soft, and the short heel makes them sexy, but still very easy to get around in. Albeit they are a bit slippery on the snow, but they aren’t supposed to be snow boots after all.
THE GOOD: First, they are so adorable. Second, these are very comfortable with a low kitten heel and very giving material. Third, they pull up over a skinny jean and my almost 15″ circumference calves easily. Last, the suede seems decent, and isn’t some faux thing. I did get compliments when I wore them.
THE BAD–(but not really all that bad)- The edging piping leading from sole to top of bottoms is cheap,you can tell it won’t hold up really well for very long, and after wearing them once, and just sitting and walking around a Christmas party for a few hours, some of mine already flaked off.
Two, the buttons don’t seem all that sturdy, and I am sure they will pop off before too long. Also, for what its worth, the buttons are completely ornamental. They don’t snap or anything, in the event you thought they did. I wasn’t sure based on the picture. Figured they were just for looks, but would’ve been kinda cool if they did snap together to hold the boot on.
Last, the heels seems wobbly, (and some of the suede is already scuffed off there after short use). I would think it would be possibly to make it be sturdier for the back of your heel, but then again, I am not used to suede boots OR lower heels! Maybe its a price you pay for the suede look. Oh, and the suede around the ankle is a bit loose if you aren’t wearing it with a jean under it.
Final note, these are so comfy and cute, I would definitely buy them again, at least at the price I bought them for. Some places have them at over $1XX.xx and I think that would be too much. This is just right.
Great boot if you have little legs
I got this boot in gray and I love it! looks good with skinny jean or tights. I have little calves (I’m 5’2″ 110 lbs) and the boot fits me perfect around the leg.
Great deal!!!!
I had ordered these boots before for $129.00 size 8. but boots are Medium Width so when returned them for a 7.5M they were sold out. Not only did i find the boots but what a bargain less than $50.00 no tax and free Shipping. I ordered the Grey Boots and now the Black ones…yaaay… They are very comfortable and hot….
