The opening of the top of the boots is not as wide as I thought from looking at the picture. Even a size 13 wouldn't go on my foot. I'm a size 8 without bandages, 11 with bandage and have a high instep. The laces are not removable at all; even though they stretch, they don't stretch enough and should be removable.

I am super excited to wear these this winter! I have had two foot surgeries and one partial toe removal and shoes and boots that fit me good are so hard to find! My sister saw the ad for these shoes and I thought I would try them! My first pair I LOVED them. Even so I bought sandels to go with them! Recently bought two more! I never knew that I could find shoes like these! So comfortable and the fact that they can form to my feet when they are swollen even better!!! Thank you so much for designing these shoes for people with feet like mine ❤

I have lymphedema in both legs and have had a horrible time finding boots that I could get on and that didn’t squish down/cut into my leg because of the size of my calves.
These boots fit perfectly.
They are a little tricky to pull on, I’d love to see them add a zipper in the back with a fold of extra fabric to allow for easier access or an even larger lower calf. A shoe horn with a long handle will be something I’ll be acquiring soon...
Once I got them on I was very pleased to find these boots have arch support.
They are also flat! Every boot I have has at least a little heel and as someone who has trouble walking even in bare feet, walking in even a small heel is friggin’ dangerous especially on snow/ice.
I am sooooo happy with these boots!

I am so grateful these boots exist!!! I have a somewhat rare disease that causes my feet to swell up and down about half an inch all day long. I was so lost trying to find shoes that would work for me - so I was really excited to find this website.
These shoes are SO adjustable and SO comfortable. The customer service team is also incredible, they worked with me to exchange the smaller size I got for the one that ended up fitting me. If you are hesitating, go ahead and buy these boots!

So happy that I can actually wear a boot again. I have gotten many compliments on how cute they are!

My mom ordered these and her feet are really swollen so they didn’t end up working out for her.

I already shared my initial experience and asked the question of what to do with the extra length on the laces. You sent me your suggestion sheet and voila! The answer was there - pull the lacing around to the back. And now they look even more classy! Just so you all know, I just ordered another pair because the sale price + the discount was so fantastic! I knew I'd be sorry down the road if I didn't do it! So now I have these lovely, comfortable, classy boots to wear for many winters! Thanks......

I ordered one size up from my baristas but I think I should have gotten 2 sizes up. The base seems to be a similar width to the baristas (a bit more narrow that the ideal for my feet as “x-wide” fits me better than “wide” in Pandere shoes).
Takes a good push to get my feet in them, even with the laces all the way loosened, but once on they feel snug enough to stay on while walking yet not uncomfortably restrictive either.
Only suggestion for improvement is to have some loops or something to grip as the neo material is not easy to grab tightly when trying to get them on. Personally, I would also prefer a slightly wider toe area as my toes do swell significantly sometimes.

They fit me perfectly and are so incredibly comfortable. However, I don't have lymphedema and so have tightened them up a bit and I have a lot of lacing left over. Is there a special way to weave the extra lacing in or just whatever works? That's my only question.

They fit my right foot! I haven't had a full show on that foot for a year. It's a lovely feeling. They seem very sturdy and I can't wait to try them is the snow! Thank you so very much for a shoe that fits my feet.
I will buy more of your shoes for sure!

Sadly the shoe lacked the depth for me to get my foot in. I can wear the Saturday- but this boot did not fit, Very sad they don't have a boot to fit me.

I didn't keep the boots because of the shape of the front, toe box.

The only reason I can think of to look forward to the next snow season is to give these boots a real test drive. They feel great when I’ve tried them on indoors, so I’m very optimistic!

Amazing Boots!
I normally run the extra wide sizes in Pandere shoes, but a size up from my normal size gave me all the extra space I needed. I am from northern Ohio and wear these everywhere!! Even to nice dinners, they look (and feel!) that good!! Another fabulous style by Pandere!! I can pull them off and on with zero issues, and my lymphedema causes my right foot to swell like a square. I can even put them on when I have horrible swelling in my left hand causing me to only be right handed!

Perfect Alaskan boots
I have a hard time finding boots that are classy-looking but suit my Alaska-casual taste--not too dressy but not reminding me of my father's shoe pacs, either..
These boots are perfect. The black suede dresses them up; their drape dresses them down. I love the way the elastic strings allow me to slip them off a while offering near-instant tightening and loosen. But most important, the corrugated soles grip the ice better than any boots I have owned. They aren't quite as safe as detachable cleats but they come close.
These boots cost a bit more than I'm used to spending on myself but since my daughter gifted them to me, the price doesn't bother me at all.
Great boots! Thanks to both Amanda and Pandere.

I like these!
They're pretty awesome shoes. They are a little hard to get on because I feel like I don't have anything to grab with, but they are so comfy and wonderful that I totally don't mind!
