Stu Judgement Women's Fashion Boots - Stylish Ankle Boots for Women, Comfortable & Trendy - Perfect for Casual Outfits, Office Wear & Night Out

I already knew Bed Stu runs a half size small on me since I previously bought a different style at Bed Stu, so I ordered Judgement boots in the teak color in size 8.5. I’m an 8 or 38 in most shoes/boots, unless they are super pointy, & my feet are more on the narrow side. As expected the 8.5 fit perfectly, & the mottled grey brown color is absolutely beautiful. They are not dusty or dirty looking like the stock photo, & they have a subtle shine on the toe area. Part of the sole on the underside of the boot is red which is a nice touch. The leather is not hard, is more on the soft side around the ankle but is not super flimsy. I only wished the laces were longer because I like to wrap the laces once around my ankles halfway up the boot, instead of lacing the whole way up. The boots are comfortable & I can stand in them at work for 6 hours. I am pretty sure the people at the Bed Stu store told me each boot was handmade, hand dyed & no 2 pair are exactly alike. The other pair of boots I have are amazing & I wear them often, so I’m sure these will be a staple for me, too.
