I recently purchased these in black then chocolate. I wear a 10 and purchased the black in a 10. They fit perfectly but I could quickly see that they would stretch a bit so I ordered the chocolate in a 9. They were so snug I could hardly get them on the first time but they are already stretching out to be very comfortable. I have worn these with and without socks and they are super comfy and warm either way. I have a high arch and have trouble wearing anything without good arch support and right away I noticed the nice bump at the arch when I slipped them on. I don't know what some of the other reviewers are talking about when saying they have no arch support because I find the complete opposite to be true. I bought some suede/nubuck water repellent spray for them and so far it's been working great. Let's face it, when the weather is cold enough here for boots like these there is surely to be lots of snow on the ground so if I couldn't wear them in the snow that would defeat the purpose of having them. It's too soon to tell how they will hold up for the entire winter but so far so good and I am very pleased with my purchases.
Adorable and Comfortable
I bought these mini boots because I really wanted something cozy and fashionable for winter, I got the pink ones and I just love them.
I have a high arch, and my feet often get sore in most shoes, but these little boots kept my feet super comfortable, even after being on my feet all day in them. The wool inside is very plushy, and I use the phrase "walking on sheep" to describe how nice they feel.
The pink color is perfect in my opinion, the wool on the inside is dyed a darker pink, which looks quite nice.
How will these hold up outside? Well, the sheepskin on the outside is very soft and very fine. Given the light color of the pink, I really didn't want to get them dirty, so I bought some "rain and stain guard" (Payless shoesource) and sprayed them with it. The texture of the sheepskin was not affected at all, and it even seemed to take away a little spot of grease!! I have walked downtown in these without them getting dirty, except for a bit on the backside. However, keep these precious mini booties out of mud/snow and other nasty things. The bottoms are well made, and the back bottom part is made out of a sturdier material, but the sheepskin exterior does seem delicate.
Sizing: I am a hair over an 8.5, so I went with a size 8 because I guess these tend to run large. The eights do fit, but my big toe does hit the end of the shoe. I always have trouble with my foot size though, and I think if I were to have bought a 9 I would have wished I went with the 8.
Overall I love these boots and am looking into purchasing more of EMU's products. =)
Finally, my feet are comfortable.
My office is so cold I get frost on the inside of my window. I wear two pairs of wool socks and my feet still get cold. I have been wearing these boots for a week and my feet are so much happier. Unlike a few other brands, the sole is sturdy and non-slippery. The sheepskin is heavier and more plush than the Minnetonka brand. The price was better than either Minnetonka or Uggs. I bought these for indoor use only. I would recommend waterproofing them for the outdoors. If my feet stay warm enough through the whole winter, I will give these boots a fifth star.
