 looove these boots Nov 08, 2008
By K. Kelly
"kiki4404"
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... Apr 20, 2009
By ava
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

 Excellent boots, durable & comfy! Feb 16, 2009
By Jen
I bought these after doing some internet research on that style boots. In my opinion they are more durable, and comfy than the UGGS and at half the cost. They run a little bit smaller than UGGS, which is good since they only come in whole sizes,(UGGS run huge by the way). The only notable difference is that UGGS Sheepskin lining is more fluffy. The lining in EMU's that I bought are wool, which is just as insolating as sheepskin; just not as fluffy. Overall they are great boots!!

Great boot for the price. Didn't have to size down in Bronte. Also bought Emu Hip Button boot and Stinger Hi's Jan 27, 2010
By Patricia
These Brontes are great for the price. The inside is a thick, soft, white, merino wool (not w/sheep's fur left on, so no dyes to stain socks, stockings or feet!) Not at all itchy & VERY warm (even warmer than the full shearling ones!) Many reviewers said to size down - but if you don't have narrow feet, and are buying for warmth and/or planning on thick socks - consider carefully w/this model. (One reason for cold feet is tighter boots that don't allow enough room for pockets of warm air to be trapped around your feet.) I have slightly wider feet and normally wear 6 1/2 to 7 and ordered down to a 6 based on reviews etc. I thought the 6 was a little too snug even w/thin or no socks and considering break-in (wool probably compacting) so exchanged to 7 (my "normal" size) - they're fine w/or w/o socks and after 2 mo. of wear.
I had ordered the (non-premium) button side style on sale first, thinking maybe they would be easier to tuck pants in. I have a wider calf and they did not button well even w/out pants tucked in, so had to send back. They were cute though if you have thinner legs. (They were also snug on the foot in a 6)
The more expensive Stinger model also went on sale, so ordered those too based on reviews. (so I got 2 pairs of boots for way less than 1 pair of uggs) The Stinger Hi is also great...as one reviewer said; "much softer" leather w/the sheep's fur left on - heaven on the feet. The Stinger does seem to run bigger and wider; and also being softer, the 7's in the Stinger are quite a bit sloppier than the 7's in the Bronte. So, probably should've gone down to 6's in the Stinger. Even though the Bronte leg opening measurement is supposed to be bigger than the Stinger, the Stinger also seems to be looser on the leg even when new.
I have been wearing one or the other every day, all day for about 2 months now so here's the report: The Bronte is a great boot overall - they're cheaper and warmer than the Stinger (and "other" sheepskin boots!) Brontes are a stiffer leather (not too stiff though) than the Stinger; so if you don't like your sheepskins too sloppy, and flopping and puddled around your ankles after they break in, these are a great choice. If you don't mind paying more and want a softer more traditional Australian sheepskin boot, get the Stinger (or other "premium" Emu style) but probably size down. The soles on both (and other brands) do feel a little weird at first (planky as one person said), but break in pretty quickly. Both styles are warm, (but feet don't sweat) comfortable, have better support and soles than most of the other brands out there. Both also fit my wider calves, where many other boots are tight or don't fit at all. Hope that helps.
Btw: (even over the holiday period) Amazon's regular and exchange shipping and processes were fantastic throughout - fast (few days), accurate and efficient!
