A comfortable and budget-friendly alternative
My husband bought the Bronte Lo in black for me for Christmas and I've worn them just about every day since. I also have a pair of tall Uggs, which I find have less arch support than my EMUs--they're both very comfortable and provide equal warmth, but I'd choose the EMUs if I was planning on walking around NYC all day.
There's really no difference in look, so if that's what you're after, these will save you $60+ over comparable Uggs. But remember these are suede with a wool lining whereas Uggs and the next level up for EMU, the Stinger, are sheepskin in and out (which is softer). To me, the wool lining is soft enough to wear without socks and the suede upper is thicker and will look newer longer than the sheepskin. I like both versions, but if you're on a tight budget, you will definitely get your money's worth with the Bronte.
EMUs run a little big and wide and they will stretch (plus the wool will compress) within a week, so by all means size down. I'm a true 8.5, ordered an 8 and they're roomy enough to fit a thick sock. Do yourself a favor and spray them with a leather/suede protector before wearing them outside to prevent water, salt and mud stains.
They do run large.............
These are nice boots but as another reviewer has said they tend to run large. And now I notice the product page even says half sizes should round down. I wear a size 9 and a size 9 boot in this style is wearable for me with thick socks but if I wore an 8 and 1/2 I am sure I would have had to send them back. There's a velcro strap on the side for ease in pulling them off and on though the boots are so large it isn't needed and tightly fastening this strap doesn't do a whole lot in making the fit any snugger. Otherwise these are sturdy, warm, comfortable boots at a fair price.
Bronte Lo Boots
I purchased the Bronte Lo Boot about a month and a half ago and wore them probably 2 times a week in good weather conditions. They run very large in size though.. usually I wear a 6, I ordered a 5 and they were still really big. I really enjoyed the boot until now, when the whole bottom rubbery part of one of the boots broke off (starting at the toe down to the middle of the boot). I have a pair of UGGS that I've had for three years now and are still in great condition that I wear just as frequently. I strongly recommend spending a little extra for the UGGS that are more durable and last longer than these.
