No need to break-in and very lightweight. Love the boots!
First of all I just wanna say that I was pleasantly surprised at the accuracy of the size guide. As soon as I wore it my feet felt snug even with socks, and I can lace them with enough space to tie them properly.
I had to withhold the review part for a while coz I wasn't able to use it until last weekend, where I can confirm that they are comfty and a joy to walk with. It gives the protection I need without feeling too stiff as the usual stuff that happens when we get boots.
Needless to say, I look forward to sampling more of your collection as I start expanding my footwear collection!
The boots are lightweight and comfortable to use. The size is just right as well.
I finally got a chance to wear these boots in Sapa, Vietnam. It was so light that I could easily bring it in my luggage without worrying about the additional weight. Since it was so lightweight, it was also so comfortable to wear, unlike other boots in a similar style. At first I was hesitant that I wouldn’t need to break it in, but I wore it for the first time during my trip, hiked up several slippery steps up and down a mountain, and didn’t experience any pain or discomfort at all! I wore lined tights and long socks under my boots and it was enough to protect my skin from any friction or chafing. I was so pleasantly surprised with my experience with these boots and would definitely recommend these! PS: do get a slightly bigger size to leave room for thicker socks.
Better than DMs.
Grabe! I've been eyeing to buy from Rob and Mara since 2020 pa! But because I know na hindi ko lang din magagamit palagi (because of COVID), I decided to wait. And thank heavens I waited because I got my 1st boots on sale and I used it for the 1st time during one of my favorite things to do--hosting! TOTOO ANG BALITA! Hindi na kailangan i break-in! I was standing, walking and dancing for about 5 hours and OMG no pain at all! Super happy with my 1st purchase and yes, this will definitely not be the last. Galing ng gawang Pilipino! More power to you Rob and Mara team!
These boots are more comfortable than H&M or Zara boots and definitely more affordable. I just wish you have half sizes. My feet size is 24 cm and ordered size 9, but even if I wear socks, it's a little bit too spacious which makes it quite uneasy for walking. Maybe you can give cork or something similar so we can adjust accordingly.
Hi Vangie, thank you for your thoughtful feedback! We're thrilled to hear you find our boots much more comfortable and affordable compared to other brands. We appreciate your suggestion about half sizes. Foot width and shape can definitely affect how each size feels, which sometimes results in a bit more room for certain foot types. For now, adding cork or an insole can be a great way to achieve a closer fit. If you’d like any additional tips, please feel free to reach out to us. We hope you enjoy using your boots, and thank you for choosing Rob & Mara!
Very comfy!
