Customer Reviews Chinese Laundry Turbo

These are awesome boots! I bought them in black after searching for so long for the perfect low heel over-the-knee boot. I am 5'2" and these boots come up a few inches over my knee. They look great and for the price it is definitely worth it!

Better than expected! I purchased these in the black suede and they are better than I expected! Runs true to size. I am 5'3" and I was afraid that these would be too tall but they aren't. They hit just a few inches above my knee. I also have muscular calves for my frame (13 inches) and I still have enough room to tuck in my skinny jeans. I think that this boot will have a slouchier fit on women with thinner calves. On me they are only slightly slouchy. The only problem is that they have no arch support. However, for the price, I think they are a bargain! So glad I bought them. I may purchase another color - grey leather maybe.

Love these boots! They are perfect with jeans, even if you have to tuck in boot cut jeans, they are great. Super comfortable and so worth it!

I\'ve worn these a couple of times so far and I really like the way that they fit. I read a lot of reviews, stating that these boots are wide in the calf area or that they tend to sag. I do not have this problem at all. Mine fit great, look great and stay up. And I do not have wide calfs. I\'m 5\'1" and petite, but these fit fine. My only complaint is that the suede is not very good quality, but that is what I would expect for the price. And there is not arch support. I purchased some inserts for these and now they are very comfortable.

These are very similar, if not identical, to my Chinese Laundry "Strate" style suede boot that came out last year, the one Serena wore in grey on gossip girl. I got these in black leather. For the price, they don't look that cheap. I usually wear a 7 (and am a 7 in Fryes) but have the Strate in a 6.5, so got a 6.5 in this style. They fit, but could use a little stretching. I haven't worn these out yet, so not sure if the ankle will bunch down and get all wrinkly. I'd prefer if they stood up straight, but as others have noted, the leather is kinda thin and there isn't much stiffness/support in the ankle. Hence, I wouldn't be surprised if these bunched. You can also fold these down so the top is horizontal (vs. diagonal). All in all, decent for price. Thanks Zappos for super quick shipping!

Super Cute!!! I just received my turbo boots in grey smoked leather and they are so cute. I was looking for a pair of casual boots that I could wear over the knee or slouch down and these are perfect. They are not tight at all which I like. They look vintage. The "leather" is okay quality. It's not like you're going to be wearing these boots and someone is going to say "Oh cute boots, now can I inspect the quality of "leather"." They are exactly what I was looking for casual and super cute!!

I love these boots! I read a lot of the reviews before purchasing them so I was a little hesitant about the fit, but they are fantastic. They can be both slouchy and stream-lined depending on the style I'm going for. They fit pretty true to size - maybe a tad bit too baggy, if anything. And Zappos' shipping is amazing. Got them the day after I ordered them.

A comfy boot - I can be on my feet for hours in these comfy boots. They're just the right heel (a little less than an inch), and they elongate the leg beautifully, I wear them over skinny jeans, or leggings.

Love them!! The leather is soooo durable for winter - not easily smudged or marred. Very comfortable, yet stylish and flexible. Can't say enough good things!!

Love them - I love these boots and I own them in Black Leather as well. Great for sticking skinny jeans into. They take a while to break in so that sticking skinny jeans into becomes easier.

It's about halfway through winter, and these relatively inexpensive tall boots are doing quite well. I got gel inserts the first day I wore them, and it was a big improvement. I've worn them in bad weather to save my more expensive boots, and they've been wading in deep snow and ankle deep slush more times than I can remember… and once almost up to the knee without leaking. My friend in side-zipper boots didn't make out so well! A bit of leather cream and they look good enough for going out. I especially like the full knee height.

Comfortable, Warm Boots! I had been looking for a pair of flat but stylish knee-high boots that would fit comfortably around my very large calves (they're 14 3/4" in circumference). Finally, I find them just in time for all the cold weather we're having in the Northeast. They provide decent traction (as much as can exist) on icy pavement as well. I'm only 5'2" so they are knee-high on me, and I don't need a whole lot of arch support. I can see how some people may find the insole a little too flat, but they work just fine for me. Even with thick tights on my large calves, the boots still slip down a little and create minimal bunching at the ankles - so if your calves are normal to slim, this may be too much of a hassle for you; but, for ladies with shamelessly muscular calves like mine, these boots will fit AND look damn good with a skirt! Very very happy with my purchase. This must be at least my 5th purchase from Zappos, and their service is absolutely top-notch. I'm happy to say that both product and service provided a thoroughly positive purchasing experience. Zappos, if only they were all like you. Keep up the fantastic work!
