Disappointed - The slip in insole was too thick, thus making the heel portion of the shoe too low. The end result, my foot slipped out of the shoe.
Disappointed. While the boot looks beautiful, like the previous reviewers the only complaint is the ankle area, which is too wide and unflattering. As much as I hate to I'm returning these boots.
Disappointed with heel - Chippewa has made a change in the construction of the heel on their engineer boots. Changed from multiple layers of leather to a solid rubber heel. Cheap look. Not happy with the change.
Difficult to fit painful feet find heaven - I have very wide and sensitive feet. I have not been able to find a comfortable pair of sandals in years. These shoes were comfortable right out of the box. Ok, so they are not the prettiest shoe, they look a bit clunky, but they are still better looking than many of my other "orthopedic type" shoes. The insoles are very cushy, but the shoe feels sturdy and supportive. I ordered these in a 4E and got a half size larger than I normally would have because of availability; but as it turned out - they fit perfectly. The only problem I have had is that the straps seem a bit too long and the trailing edge sometimes catches on something when I am getting into the car and loosens the velcro strap. It appears that they will be easy to cut shorter though because of a second stitching across the strap although I don't think that is what it was intended for. I really like these shoes!
Didn't wear well - The shoes are cute and seem to be comfortable for my son, but I'm disappointed in how they held up. Within two weeks, the yellow stripes had started to wear off the top of the shoe. He's now had them for about a month, and the stripes are worn completely off one shoe, and only one stripe is left on the second shoe.
