Sam Edelman Women's Ridge Boot

These boots seem barely reviewed anywhere on the internet, maybe because they're so new? So I was a little apprehensive about the fit when ordering. Have no fear. Fit - I'm usually between a 10 and an 11 and these only go up to a 10. Turns out the 10 is slightly roomy, so they fit me well, but I think thick socks would be a squeeze... You may want to order down 1/2 size. I have large feet and really narrow ankles/calves so finding boots that don't look comically clown-y can be a struggle, but these look natural and relaxed. UO has some good product photography of a girl actually wearing them if you're looking for a representation of how they hold around the ankle. Construction - The clasps, which I thought were decorative, are actually functional (and really pretty!) and great for cinching the shaft close to the ankle. The side zip is sturdy and the leather overall is thicker than I thought it would be, which gives it that ruched broken-in look without actually flopping open in uncontrollable ways (steve madden brewzzer, anyone?). The thick leather/thick sole make for an initially stiff fit but wearing them for a bit will probably loosen that up - I'll update my review if it doesn't. I am really impressed with this boot's construction - I've spent more dough on equally tough/femme boots that turned out to be flimsy. I could kick some rocks in these. The matte finish to the leather does seem like the kind that's prone to winter salt stains, so I'll probably end up waterproofing them and losing some of that almost suede-like finish, but the style of the boot seems amenable to wear and tear ('it's not a bug, it's a feature!') so I'm just not concerned. Overall, two huge thumbs up.

These are kid skin so they seem to stretch a little more than cow hide. Go down half a size. These run longer and a bit more narrow than usual. I wear an 8 1/2 or 9 and these fit me in an 8. I have a wider foot and the 8 is perfect in length, perfect in toe area but are tight across the vamp. They are breaking in nicely but for total comfort, I must wear thinner socks. I tried the 8 1/2 also but sent them back as they were way too long. If you have an average or narrow foot, just go down 1/2 size and they'll fit you perfect. I absolutely love the look of these. I purchased the Ebono which is a rich chocolate brown. They have a bit more shine than the black ones. Love them both! Awesome boots. You won't be sorry but be sure and go down half size.

Beautiful boot and exactly the style I've been looking for...the leather is nice and the shaft is pliable but can be styled...it's not a sloppy slouch. I normally wear a 10 or 11, consistently 10 in shoes lately, so I ordered the 10 based on the reviews saying it ran large. I disagree with the reviews. The 10 was too small for my foot in the length. They are very nice and it was disappointing having to send them back.

These shoes are absolutely amazing! They look super cool, are sturdy, and extremely comfortable. I typically wear a 8.5 and have normal feet as far as width and arch are concerned. I ordered these in a size 8.5 and 8, and the 8 fit perfectly, even with socks. But I live in the AZ desert and will never have to worry about cold temperatures, so if you intend to wear them with thicker socks I suggest you get your regular size. The robe color is more of a brownish green, not an olive green as the pictures might suggest. I have some taupe colored shoes that are almost identical. The clutches are fully functional and let you adjust the boots to your liking. When worn, they look exactly as shown on the pictures and don't bunch up around your ankles, regardless of how loose you wear them. Get them, you will not be disappointed!

I was really excited to get these boots and therefore very disappointed when they were too small. I ordered my regular size 10 but found the toe area of the boot especially tight. I have a high arch so boots can be a challenge for me to get my foot into sometimes but the issue with these boots was all in the front toe area. I have average width feet...by no means narrow, but not overly wide. I was also expecting more of a 'slouch' in the boot. They are loose fitting around the leg but don't really drape as much as I was hoping for. They are a nice looking boot and of good quality but just not what I was looking for and too narrow for me.

These boots fit me perfectly which means they likely run slightly large. I am a 10-10.5 medium and I have room for heavy socks in these boots, and that's a good thing. They are a stylish as they are comfortable. And they make my feet look smaller than most boots do. The quality of the leather and the soles is first rate. I would recommend these boots to anyone who likes the look. Eespecially those with a larger foot.

I really wanted to like this boot, but everything about it was slightly "off." The quality does not reflect the price. The leather is rough. There is a really unnecessary tongue built into the boot, which restricts the ability to both put it on and move in it. The calf is almost too narrow to wear over jeans, and you can't wear jeans over the boot. Above all, they're really uncomfortable to wear. This is too bad, because I love the wrap-around look of this boot, and I haven't seen many others like it.

I am so pleased to have bought these boots! They are ridiculously comfortable and look amazing. I loved the way they looked on Amazon, and was not disappointed when they arrived (I ordered the green). They are surprisingly adjustable. I read all of the reviews before purchasing and the only thing I disagree with is ordering a size down. I usually wear a 7, ordered a 7.5 as they were out of 7s, and even with thin socks they fit perfectly. The soles and upper body are very well made- it's a new brand to me and I will definitely be looking into other shoes from this designer.
