Tin Haul Women's Flamingo Shoes - Comfortable & Stylish Women's Casual Shoes for Everyday Wear | Perfect for Walking, Shopping & Outdoor Activities

The price was great for me at the time. I had been watching them for a while, and it was a great decision to purchase at the time.I absolutely love these boots. Never seen a pair like them, never will. The entire Tin Haul collection are all special, but the (subtle) flamingos, black leather and totally cool art soles totally won me over. The boots are incredibly well made. Everything about them is good quality - design, implementation, and material. Tops, bottoms, interiors, soles, stitching, colors, the works! I expect them to last, and to age well. I am not a regular cowboy boot wearer, but I really couldn't resist this purchase and entirely plan to get some stuff in my closet specifically to wear with them. I would consider myself a sizing expert at this point. I am a regular size 8 shoe. I bought an 8.5, an 8, a 7.5 and a 7 to try. I called Tin Haul about sizing and was recommended to try a 7 or 7.5. Initially I thought the 7.5 was the right fit - the boots can be hard to get foot through the ankle turn into the footbed. However, not knowing any differently, I only tried one boot on in front of a mirror. Turns out it is vital to try on both boots and walk around with cowboy boots to give them a test. The 7.5 was actually too big and there was a lot of lift in the heel when walking. I exchanged them for another pair of 7's ( I had already returned the first pair of 7s I bought, and never tried to put on). Perfect fit once I could get my left foot in. Right foot, no issues. They are gorgeous. And comfortable, even on first wear. Multiple people have commented on them, already. I could not have had a better experience buying from Tin Haul - they were so helpful with sizing information, shipping, returns and general communication. I feel like if you stumble upon this company as I did (pure chance) and fall in love with a pair of their boots, you will have some footwear unlike any other that you will really value. I hope this review is useful, cos I love these boots!Right boot fit like a dream. Left boot took a long time to get my foot through the shaft to the foot bed. It is super tight. Once in the boot fit well. I may have to take to a cobbler to get that transition point loosened up. I love Tin Haul boots and these do not disappoint. They are cute, sassy but still classy. If anyone is afraid of the soles, don't be. Once you wear them in normal activities, they scuff up just enough to not be slippery but you can still see the graphics perfectly. I do wish the sizing was just a bit more consistent with this pair and actually with most of the styles I've ever tried. If you ever see a display of Tin Hauls try on as many pairs as you can, they all fit a bit different.These are gorgeous boots! They're kind of a charcoal/smokey black color and have like a crinkle distressing to them. I normally wear btwn a 6 & 6.5 depending on shoe brand. I got the 6.5 and I have a ton of room for my toes. With that being said the turn is a very tight squeeze. I might get some boot stretchers to help. Once I got my foot in they're fine. But the struggle is real y'all! Broke a sweat getting through that turn.The bottoms are also super cute. I was afraid the design would wear off but it looks like it's under a layer of polyurethane or something.I consistently fit in the same size everytime with Tin Hauls!These boots are gorgeous!!! The background is sort of an off-black. Unfortunately I received a size 8, but ordered a size 7.5. I can't really speak about sizing, but the 8 was way too big.Love these boots, but getting them on is a challenge--the 'turn' between the shaft and the footbed is really narrow. Hoping that as the leather softens it will be easier.They are beautifully made and have turned a few heads!
