Customer Reviews Steve Madden Esma Boot

I am so happy with these boots! Ordered a size 10 which is my true size. They were pretty snug when I put them on. I wore them around the house for a bit then ventured to our small town shopping area. Within 30 min I received 2 compliments from some well dressed women. I felt pretty good about that. I am 56 and was worried I might look like I was trying too hard to look young. The more I wore the boots the more comfy they became.

These boots are very on trend. I really like the heel height and the fit on my calves. I got a half size larger to make sure that my calves had enough breathing room. They’re snug but not too tight. The insole has no cushion so a full day without a padded insert could result in sore legs or lower back. Overall I’m pleased with my purchase.

Fit feels good, they benefit from insoles for sure. I've been wary of Steve Madden shoes since in the past they don't last very long, so we'll see how long these last. They are cute for sure, and comfy wearing for an 8 hour day spent on my feet (with additional insoles).

Great boots. I wear a size 10.5, but since footwear is seldom made in size 10.5, I order a size 11 in most footwear. These boots fit really well and were not as big on me as size 11 footwear usually is. They are also very comfortable. I also hope to get an additional pair in a different color.

very stylish, true to size but uncomfortable to wear/walk

These boots are exactly what I was looking for to wear with skirts/dresses. I have a small calf and typically no boots ever fit but these are actually snug on my calf and stand up straight without any slouching. They seem to be nice quality.

I haven’t worn them yet but I’ve walked around the house in them. I like the feel of them and the way they look on. I also bought my daughter a pair in black!?

These boots are fabulous, but do run a little small (I'm an 8, bought a 9) and a little bit tight. I've got moderate calves and had to squeeze. The good news is that they seem to be stretching out with wear. As another reviewer mentioned, there is little arch support for all day wear, but I added some gel inserts and they are perfect.

Love the look, but they did feel a bit larger than expected ... decided to keep them as the extra room will make wearing heavier socks possible.

Definitely run small and tight on the calves and I don't have big calves at all.. I was able to zip them up all the way and wear them in hopes to stretch them out. I am so in love with the look. They are beautiful boots!!

These are gorgeous but the only thing is that if you have big calves they will be too tight.

I love this boot - it's comfrotable, sturdy and is exactly what I was looking for for the winter. I did have to size up a half size from 7 1/2 to 8, but otherwise it walks + fits well with my feet.

This fits true to size. I have smaller calves and normally don’t fill out boots completely but these fit snug to my calf. Super cute with skirts and dresses.

Too small on the calf! Tried to size up. They seem very well made, sturdy, ‘ very cute, but I am unable to zip them up all the way.

Very cute boot however, the sizing was a bit odd for it was so narrow and tight when you stick your foot inside. Normally I am a size 6 so I opted for a 6.5 just in case and I couldn’t get my foot inside so I had to return and get a 7.5 which is not my usual, and even then it felt a little snug. So please order your size accordingly when purchasing. Not the comfiest when walking but possibly shoe inserts may help?

Returned the item because the shaft was too tight. I ordered a size 9 and the shaft is less than 15inches around. The style is super cute though.
