These Are Showstoppers!
"Was looking for something taupe to wear that wasn’t suede and came across these by chance. On day one at work, folks were actually stopping me in the halls to ask where I’d found them. Great style and very comfortable. For me, they are true to size, but I have a somewhat wider foot and was grateful that these are fabric and not leather. There is a little give in them, and that worked well for me."

Not Up To Taft Standards. . . Jack in Grey Oxblood. .
"It is with regret that I write this review. I love Taft Boots. . . . I now own 7 pairs of Taft boots and 1 pair of shoes and I have written about the quality and the creative design with appreciation. I’m sure that I’ll continue to buy the product, however, when I saw the Jack in Grey Oxblood that I’d been eyeing go on sale and then go on sale again. . . I jumped to buy them. . . thinking, why are they on double discount sale? I had just purchased some Jack’s in brown paisley on sale that I’d been wanting for over a year and they are amazing, hand crafted, Just what I expected. . . . Then I received the Grey Oxbloods. . . and they are no where near the same quality. The Sole is stitched but it seems to be with inferior materials, some kind of rubber?. . . If the interior is leather, it’s not the normal thickness or quality. They had a very strong oder of glue and plastic. . . a very light black plastic/rubber sole that seems also to be below the standard of my other Taft boots. . . . Now, I only paid a fraction of the price because of the double mark-down, but, I was disappointed at the quality difference, nevertheless. Bottom line: If I had paid full price or even the first mark down at $200, I’d have felt that Taft had pulled a bait and switch. Full transparency: I’ll be keeping them for the “look”, but, I know they are not the same as my other boots and unless you can get them at the double discount, I would not purchase them. I hope Taft will not offer this kind of inferior product in the future without an honest price point below their better quality products. That these were offered at the same price as the others at one time, was a mistake on the companies part, in my opinion. They may have reduced them to remedy that oversight, however, I would implore them to keep up the creativity and quality that they’ve built a deserved reputation on."

Beautiful new boots at a great price
"I've been a long-time Taft customer, and I've been wanting to add these to the collection for a while now. The recent clearance was the push I needed. I'm so happy with the purchase, and I got really lucky that my size was on clearance. I couldn't be more satisfied with this purchase."

Love this style
"This is yet another amazing style from Taft. I have been a loyal customer with about 20 pairs. So sad that this will be my last as the company has chosen to no longer make a size 7. Good thing they had a sale and I could buy replacements for some of the earlier styles I have. Maybe someday they will reconsider their size options. Wishing you the best as I look for a new company."

Yup, I Did It Again -- Love these boots
"Dragonflies are my personal mascot. So I had to order a pair of the dragonfly boots. I worried they'd just be a novelty, and that the quality and workmanship might not match the images on the website. So I bought the dark brown ones and love them. I feel good about myself whenever I wear them. When the light ones went on sale, I hesitated for a just a second, but then I got them and I am happy again. Beautiful boots. Distinctive, stylish, high quality."

The best looking shoes I own.
"I love the way these shoes make me feel when I am wearing them. I get a lot of looks and compliments."

Delicate beauty with shine & pop!
"Not as thrilled with this boot as many of my others (I have 8 Taft pairs total). Craftsmanship less quality than I’ve come to expect. Structure/form of the boot around the right heel/achilles pinches in/rubs more than the left boot. Beautiful satin/silky material, but extremely delicate, already had some dirt marks, sticky/tacky spots, maybe from handling during manufacturing? Concerned it is going to be very difficult to keep these looking nice if they get wet and likely hard to clean them if they get any dirt on them at all. Nervous and I haven’t even worn them yet."

Good Looking Shoes
"Shoes fit well and look great; I routinely get compliments on them. Only reason I gave it 4 starts out of 5 is that Taft originally sent me the wrong shoes; they took care of the return and corrected it but it was a minor inconvenience."

Great Boots!
"I have purchased four pair of Taft boots and have received innumerous amounts of compliments on them. Your products are amazing, stylish, and comfortable. I am a lifelong customer."
