looove these boots
I have these boots in the light brown and I absolutely love them!! They are sooo warm for the winter and they are really comfortable, I wear them everywhere. I actually just order a pair in black. When you first put them on some of the fur will come out but I think its only excess once you wear them a few times it doesn't shed and the more you wear it the more comfortable it becomes. I would definitely recommend these boots! I take a size 9.5 but I ordered them in a 9 and they fit perfectly so I would recommend going .5 a size smaller.
reliable but run large...
i bought these in a chestnut size 9 M. they run pretty big though because i usually wear a 9 or 9.5 and mine are definitely too large. i should have gotten an 8. so if you are like me and wear say, a 7 or 7.5, you will want to round down to a 6. it will totally change the experience of wearing this boot if you buy it too large so beware. but that aside, they are comfortable and have a very nice arch support and a good thick sole, but not so thick that it looks unsightly. great value for the price, they definitely last
GREAT choice GREAT brand GREAT boot!!!!!!!!
First of all, we don't have alot of money and when I bought these they were only $43. I have to pay them off, but it is worth it. The boots have good shape-unlike other brands they do not bend in the toe making a crinkly look. The heel is kind of slippery when walking around, so either wear socks or you just get used to it. When worn barefoot (like I am right now), they tend to feel itchy after a while. But if you are a tuck-in-your-jeans kind of girl, then tuck in your jeans. Or else you might be scratching yourself all day.
The top of the boot: If you are one of those REALLY skinny people, I would not recommend this boot. I think that EMU has planned for the bigger person, not the smaller. The part of the boot that goes over your leg is not that loose on me, since I am average size. But on some people, your boots will feel loose and not very warm. I also want to warn you how long they. I have long legs (for my age) and they go about 3 inches below my knee. The shorter your legs, the longer the boot will be. If this is the case, just aim for the lo boot. If you are tiny and you have boots that literally go up to your knees, you are going to look just weird. I also want to say that these are pretty hard to roll down, and when done, look messy anyway, because of the merino wool. Merino wool looks like the actual wool you would find on a sheep. It appears matted and messy, as opposed to the "yarn" material in Uggs.
One thing that I know people obsess about: how much fur is actually inside the boot where your toe is. In my boot, there was not alot of wool, but since the actual bottom and material of the shoe are so thick, it competely makes up. Also, unlike other shoes, when the wool has been stepped on and kind of flattened out, it is easy to make it "puffy" again. Just by moving you feet or hands in the opposite direction. From other reviews, I have read that there is alot of arch support-this I do not know, seeing as I have literally no arch AT ALL. But they don't feel like converses-they do fill up that space in your feet, and it feels wonderful.
The bottom of the shoe: Other brands have this kind of foamy material all the way through (including Uggs), which tends to get torn up very quickly and kind of tears apart way too fast. But EMUs (all styles, I'm pretty sure) have a very sturdy foam like that in the center, but the on the very edge on the bottom, there is a layer of hard plastic material. At the heel of the boot, this plastic curves off into full plastic, as it does also at the toe. So no matter how you walk (toe to heel, heel to toe), your boots will not fall apart. Underneath the layer of plastic is also the EMU label printed over and over on the bottom, giving even more grasp to layers of ice or whatever underneath. If you want to see a picture of this, either look at this product on Amazon, or go to google and type in 'EMU boots'. Sooner or later you will find a photo showing a close up of the sole. I think that whoever designed this is amazing, and that these boots are of EXTREMELY high quality.
One more thing: if you have narrow feet, this is not a good buy. I have really wide feet and these fit perfectly. The only real problem is the heel slipping, but that leaves room for next winter when my feet have grown some more(my feet will NEVER stop growing!). Anyway, ignore all those people that say this boot is ugly because they don't know what they are talking about. My boots look even better in real life than on the picture! I used to want Uggs, but these were a quarter of the price and much better quality. I have tried on Uggs before (though I don't own any) and I would say that these are definitely much better!
I ordered from Amazon and it was awesome. I ordered them on a Saturday night, and the arrival date was supposed to be Thursday. Everyday I came home from school anticipating seeing that box on my porch. The boots arrived on Friday, one day late, but I can't blame them since we just a had a blizzard. Plus it came free with Super Saver Shipping, so that was awesome! My friend's sister ordered Uggs from another online shopping site over a week ago, and she still hasn't received them! I am so pleased with my boots AND Amazon! Great buy!
Also: all that you hear about sizes running big, believe it. I am usually an 8, 8.5, or 9. I decided to order an 8, which I thought I was growing out of, but I still have room to grow! I have no idea why anyone would spend $200 on Uggs, when you can get these or Stingers for half the price! Unless you are just spoiled rotten. These are amazing boots and I am wearing mine everywhere.
This is a list of my other boots: my $12 black ones from Wal-Mart, my brown knit ones from Claires($10!!), and my big clunky snow boots. I ordered these in chesnut and I am so excited to actually have real quality boots! Sorry this is so long, but this boot is the BEST and I want everyone to know it. I will be ordering more boots from this brand ASAP!!! And you should, too.
