Dingo Molly Harness Boots
The boots were darker than pictured on the website, however not a deal breaker for me. I also ordered a darker pair, from Kohls to see which color I liked best, they were the exact same color, so I returned them. After returning the boots to Kohls I brought these home and took them for a spin around the house for a few hours. Then I hopped on the treadmill to really break them in, 3mph for 40 minutes. Obviously after that there was some rubbing, so I couldn't wear them again for 5 days. Wore them to work 3 times, up and down stairs, back & forth, all the daily office work stuff, no pain no problems. Did after work shopping 2 of those days, still no problem.Size-I was really hesitant ordering shoes/boots on-line because sizes vary depending on the style. I am a size 10 in all my tennis shoes, sketchers & Asics. Flats, sandals & girly boots I'm a size 8 1/2. From reading the reviews some said these were comparable to Frye boots. A co-worker has two pair of Frye boots which she brought in for me to try on, they were 8 1/2. So that's the size I ordered, they are the perfect size. My sock of choice is, hanes, the white ones with pink & gray toe, so not to thin or thick.Width- These are a little wider than the Frye boots, which is perfect if you want to wear a thicker sock or have a wider foot.I've never had this style of boot before but have wanted them for a long time. I'm very happy with my purchase.I hope this review will be helpful, if you're looking at purchasing these boots.Update 11-21-19: I gave a rave review of the brown boots I bought last year, they are still a 5!I decided to order a black pair this year, thinking they'd be as awesome, they are not :(I ran into the same problem so many others had in the reviews. The shaft by the ankle (not a problem for me) & foot part (big problem for me) are definately more narrow as you can see in the side by side comparisons. Yes, leather does stretch but not that much! They are very nice boots, the shafts are a little softer & more pliable than the brown ones. It's always a crap shoot when you order on-line, unfortunately these will have to be returned, plus side I can do that at Kohl's. Quality is still a 5, Fit is more like a 2.I still want a black pair, I'll either have to try to find some place that carries them locally or take a chance on ordering another pair from Amazon. If they had the inspected number, like on Monk I'd be golden :)

Great quality, didn't even need to break them in
These boots are very well made, sturdy, classy in a rugged way. I am so pleased with this purchase. I tried on so many boots through the prime wardrobe, and returned so many. These are keepers. I have an average width, but my feet are flat. They are not wide enough to wear wide shoes, but sometimes regular width shoes are narrow for me,. This boot hugs my foot gently and comfortably. I normally wear a 10.5 to 11 in most shoes. Size 10 is what ended up fitting me. I feel like these boots will last a long time. I am happy with my purchase, and recommend for anyone who wants a boot with some substance, but not clunky. The boots hit mid calf, and are easy enough to get on and off for a boot with no zippers. My calfs are about 16 inches at the widest point, these boots hit a little below my widest part and I have room to move easily.

Nice boot, weird fit
This is a solid, well made boot. I got the brown and it looks as pictured. The toe box is really narrow and the heel area is wide so you'll walk and feel your foot sliding up. I wish they were a bit wider. But after a full day of wear I got used to it. Need to wear thick socks with these. I love the way they look and they are nice quality, so I'm happy with them. I'm usually a 9-9.5 and the 9 fit loosely.

Boots you can actually work in
If you're looking for a serious, high quality boot these fit the bill nicely. They aren't just made for fashion. These are the type of boots in which you can actually get stuff done while wearing. That being said they are also very nice looking for everyday wear. The boot is made of tough, durable leather with that slightly distressed look right out of the box. They aren't girly, frilly boots though. I think they pair best with boot cut jeans for a dressed down, no frills look.The only thing I will caution is that they are narrow in the toe. I have smaller, narrow feet so they fit me just fine, but if your feet are even slightly wider at the toe area these would likely be unbearable for you to wear.

So very happy with my decision to buy these boots
I haven't had my boots for very long, but I know I made the correct purchase. When I first put these boots on and went on errands, they felt a little heavier than my old pair of boots, and a little pinching. But, I understand leather, and now that I've been wearing them every day, they are breaking in quickly and feel very comfortable. They're comfortable when I walk for a length of time, stand for a length of time and also to drive in. These boots are not dress boots, they are for work, but are also a stylish work boot. I am a sign maker, and am sometimes standing in mud, on rock beds, on ladders - these boots will keep my feet dry and supported, and are tough enough to last many years, which is a great value for me. I recommend these boots to anyone looking for a stylish work boot, and was very satisfied by the ease of my purchase and the quick shipping turnaround! My boots came safely packaged and brand new condition.

Stiff and uncomfortable
These boots are extremely stiff and very uncomfortable. Not worth the money. It looks cheap in person. The influences that marketed this item is not honest.

Move Over Frye!
Got these in the Gaucho Nutty Mule and they're beautiful everything the reviewers said they were! I wear heavy boot socks so I always order a half size up, did the same with these and they fit perfectly. I did condition them with Frye conditioner and they did get darker, but still beautiful. I have 4 pair of Frye boots and these compare in every way to Frye; if I didn't know better I'd think they were Frye. Dingo needs to come out with some other styles besides cowboy boots. I don't mind a boot with a western flair, but not strictly western, I live in the Midwest. These boots were priced nicely so you really got a deal on a high quality casual boot.

Look great but fit is uncomfortable.
I wanted to love these but they are just not comfortable. The size I ordered was true to size but they dug into my ankles in the sides. I thought maybe they were just stiff but it’s not that they are just made weird. Disappointed I had to return.

Great boot.
I have wide calves and damaged feet so was not sure how they would fit. May be just a bit too long but I needed the width. The only way these would be better is if they were knee height... as in the 70's.I love that I can pull them on....and that in time they will conform to my feet. Once softened enough I will try my orthotics in them...this may take care of that bit too long issue. Beautiful color and they look sharp with jeans over them. I wanted the knee high ones from old times so these shorter ones will have to do.. I hope DINGO will make them again.

Amazing quality
Absolutely LOVE these boots..I'm a size 9-10.. got these in a 10.. there's a bit of room in there but just enough.. I had a little tiny bit of rubbing down by my baby toe because they are a bit narrow.. I put a thin insole in and it solved the problem.. snugged them right up.. they fit perfectly but yes you do need to break them in.. an amazing boot for the price fabulous quality.. beautiful patina.. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Beautiful boots. Bought 2 pair for my daughter and ...
Beautiful boots. Bought 2 pair for my daughter and my wife is jealous that her size was not available. Gorgeous oiled leather finish has thus far held up to the considerable punishment that an 11-year old can dish out. She wears them almost every day.
