RoamerClassic Suede Desert Boots Size 6 UK

Once upon a time I joined the Army. This was when Centurion was a rank, not a tank, and before they knew the Dead Sea was sick. I wore dezzy boots until I was ridiculed out of them because they were square and so on. I have regretted it for a long time and recently went back to desperately unfashionable and bought these because they are not made with fashion in mind. That is, they are not tapered down at the toe and as a result my very wide and (almost) unpinched feet feel free as a lark in springtime. Unfortunately, since the I started wearing them on the 5th of October 2021 they have developed a split in the left hand sole. This could well be an aberration, since it is only the one sole. As we say in the Army "these things happen". Well we say something close to that, shorter and pithier though .No lithp intended. In all other respects these are well made and very comfortable. A pity.

I love these and intend to buy more pairs in different colours. I'm a woman with wide size 8 feet and used to wear desert boots all the time as a teen. Now in my 60's I still wear jeans but hate trainers and so thought I'd retro buy and am so pleased I did. They are a wide fit which is great and seriously stylish. My 20's something children and their friends really like the look of them too and are thinking of buying some. The one down side, and it isn't one really, is that the insides are hard but some soft insoles are a good fix.

I ordered a size 4 (my regular size) and they looked like a 5 or 6, so returned and ordered a size 3. The boots that were sent did have size 3 stamped on them, but they were exactly the same size as the previous ones.Won't be trying again - I've noticed a lot of similar reviews, mainly regarding smaller sizes. It's a shame, as the boots looked really nice and comfy, but they need to re-think their sizing!

I first started wearing desert (wellies ) boots back when I was in 3 para in the 1970s they were sop then they never changed good light solid boots never gone out of fashion

Love these boots. They fit well and I wear them almost every day because they are so comfy. I have wide feet and they are a dream. Dont seem to show any signs of wear after over a year.Just purchased another pair for 'best. Still wearing the old pair everyday to work.

Value for money is pretty decent and I didn’t expect high quality for the price I paid. One thing I did find is that the innersole did ware down fairly quick which left quite a discomfort when wearing them throughout the day. If you’re only going to be wearing them on occasions and do not want to break the bank then I’d say go for it but if you’re planning on wearing them for a long period of time then I’d suggest investing in some Clark’s or a higher-end brand.

My initial reaction was to return these - they are very large, and also only have a half insole at the heel, so the forefoot is hard and uncomfortable. However, I had a set of insoles in the cupboard (Grangers G10 size 5), popped them in, they fit inside perfectly without trimming and have filled some of the extra space and given some forefoot comfort. They’re still a bit big, but they’ll be fine with boot socks. Oh, and the colour is nothing like the picture on Amazon, much darker, but I like it.

I had finally gone through the sole of my Clarks so ordered new ones. However, they have feminised,stiffened and narrowed the womens(size 3 so no option to wear mens). Ordered these but cautiously upside and the 4 a bit big so my own fault. But great find and good quality
