I’m totally in love with these boots! The color is unique but versatile, and the leather is soft. They’re definitely an all-weather kind of shoes, but are still quite lightweight. One thing I would have liked is a zip on the side so they’re easier to get in and out of, especially since I’m quite on-the-go so lacing up boots every time isn’t really my jam. Nevertheless, I’m in love with these!
I love these boots. We walk a LOT in Japan in the middle of the winer and these shoes didn’t give me blisters at all even if it was only my second time using them.
Blake in Amaretto
I've been eyeing Rob and Mara's boots for some time now and last month I decided to buy one, specifically Blake in Amaretto. I was surprised as to how soft it was more than it looked. I haven't had the chance to walk it a lot longer but so far so good. I didn't have blisters and my feet was not sore after using it. It looks sturdy and not to mention very stylish too! Aside from the shoe, I have to commend Rob and Mara's customer service as well-- prompt replies and very helpful and friendly!
I'm glad that I bought my first proper pair of leather boots from Rob and Mara. I've used the boots several times the past month. They're the best footwear for rainy weather! My feet are fully protected from the raindrops and puddles. I've probably logged over 10,000 steps in these Blake's and they just get comfier. 👍👍Customer service was also topnotch. They were so accommodating and understanding when I asked to change sizes because I ordered the wrong one. Will definitely save up for more Rob and Mara pairs.
Was actually planning to buy DMs but I wanted to support a fellow local business owner. I was really happy to see Rob & Mara’s Blake boots. It was a sign. IT’S ALSO A VERY GOOD QUALITY PRODUCT!
Pros:
Sturdy & definitely comfy (not heavy & doesn't cause fatigue during long walks or whole day use. Di rin mainit sa PH weather even if you're wearing thick socks).
Accurate sizing (usually an 8.5 w/ narrow feet so I got the 10 as advised. Initially thought na it's too big pero enough room inside)
Super bang for your buck! Best dupe for docs! Plus that lovely coffee brown that sometimes turns into a deep burgundy tone depende sa lighting. Definitely won't be my last purchase. Kudos sa Rob & Mara team for great products & seamless transaction.
Cons:
Needs breaking in (as expected of genuine leather) kasi medyo tumatama yung inner seams sa ankle part or you could just wear thick socks naman for a quick fix.
It's so pretty, the size guide was accurate, and it fits me very well. 😊 Definitely one of my favorite purchases this year and to top it all off, it's locally made! They are also very easy to talk to and accommodated my delivery request.
