The boots are extremely soft, fully lined in an equally soft material and oh so beautiful! My first and not last Memery shoes but!

I bought these boots because I walk a lot and sometimes want to look good doing it. The heels are low enough to go for miles comfortably, and so far they've stood up to my abuse! When I buy another pair I might go for a larger size, as I have slightly wide feet, and although these fit well, the fantastic layers of padding make the depth over the toes quite snug, especially with socks.

I bought my size and they are snug but not tight, and very comfortable. The heel is the perfect height. If I wanted to wear thick or handmade socks with them, I’d need to size up though.

Absolutely stunning pair of boots. I’ve already gotten lots of wear out of them. They are so comfortable and though they take a bit longer to put on/off than a normal boot it is so worth it (and expected look at those laces!) I would definitely repurchase from memery! Only down side i have found is that the heel of the boot has got some shredding but nothing crazy or unexpected, and can be fixed when it becomes necessary. As you can see in the photo the shredding is super minimal. Overall so impressed with these boots and cant wait to buy more shoes from memery!!

Love these boots! I usually wear a US 8M. After reading comments and knowing that I am usually on the cusp of M/W, I decided to go to get the wide: EU39 - UK6 - US8 (Wide version).
They fit fantastic with socks! Feel a bit long in very thin hose. In fact in the sandal I also got, I sized down but stuck with wide...so I can wear bare or with thin hose without them slipping, and they fit great. So...normal size for socks, size down for hose/bare. Just my experience!

I had my eye on these boots for a long time and finally, with the summer sale discounts, could not resist any longer and got them. The boots are very beautiful and comfortable. They are true to size and easier to lace up than I imagined. The boots were nicely packed and the shipment arrived very quickly.
Having those boots now makes me wish for autumn to come sooner - unbelievable! Thank you!

After having made my online purchase your 'Ruth' boots arrived at my home in New Zealand within 10 days! Opening the box was a real treat - such beautiful packaging. The boots are amazing. I haven't worn them out and about yet due to the heavy rain we have had but I have worn them at home. They are so comfortable and elegant. I have been trying to replace boots I purchased in the UK over 25 years ago - finally I found your boots online and I am thrilled. Thank you for making these beautiful leather boots (with leather soles) available. I truly appreciate them particularly since I need a leather sole due to a previous back injury. Thank you!

The leather is so soft, they fit my feet like a dream. The heel is the perfect height so that these boots are both comfortable to wear, and make a beautiful profile. Quite simply: I'm thrilled to pieces.

Delighted with these boots, their quality and fit. I have wide ankles and calves (thanks soccer) and often boots dig into the space above my heel. These are very comfortable! The heel height is perfect and the toe box is elegant and fits my foot shape.

The laces are not long enough to lace up my calves, but I have this problem often and am not surprised. My main feedback is that I will have to sew or cut in a keeper loop on the tongue because it slides completely to the side when I walk.

I prefer to wear socks with most shoes and definitely recommend a wide if you intend to wear anything thicker than tights or hose.

I've discovered that size 10 1/2 wide is my ideal shoe size. Great - now where do I find such shoes? I tried out the size 10 wide of the Ruth and they fit great! I'm now eager to try out other Memery shoes in 10W. (Please make some of the cute sandals available in wide.) These shoes are comfortable and the lacing allows me to adjust over that bumpy bone on one foot. The shoes are well made and I can't wait to wear them with my Edwardian outfit... when I finally finish sewing it.
