Customer photo review of Alder II

Love these boots I believe I have about 7 pairs of shoes from y’all. And as long as they’re made in Mexico I’ll keep buying. Yet the moment I find out they’re made in CHINA I’m done!

Gorgeous boots! Love them! They run large. I am a women’s 8 and I bought a size 6 and they feel slightly large. Fine with thicker socks, but may want to consider 2.5 sizes down for women.

I bought this as a Christmas gift for my wife and I had shown her this boots months before and she loved them a lot that she doesn’t know yet she’ll be receiving. I personally fell in love with them the moment I open the box I am so excited for her to receive them. Customer service was amazing as well that they also send a brush as a gift! Thank you so much!.

Let me just start off by saying I absolutely love these boots! They’re the perfect boot for any occasion really. You can dress them up with your favorite pair of slacks, button down & sport coat. Or you can dress them down with a Tee Shirt & Jeans. It doesn’t really matter because the boots will still be the highlight of your outfit either way! The leather on these are beautiful & the smell hits you as soon as you open the box. What actually stood out the most to me though is the beautifu...

The leather is so soft right out of the box. I have promoted this specific shoe (Ellington boot) heavily on Indiana Jones costume groups due to it's close similarity to the Alden 405 boot at a fraction of the cost. Plus these are way more comfortable the $500+ Aldens. I know this boot is selling out so hopefully it's an item that the company is smart enough to continually stock. There are always new generations of Indiana Jones costumers.

Great boot for the sale price. It is extremely comfortable. The welt stitching is clean and the outsole I like. The leather is unique, I've never seen another shoe leather like it. It's completely worn looking already which was expected and I like the look but I do have some concerns for the longevity of the leather. It does not feel the strongest. It looks good for now but I don't have high expectations for a 10 year boot by any means, hence saying it was a great boot for the 50% off sale price...

Love the heck out of my Mahogany Charlton boots. They look and feel amazing. Perfect fit and like always comfortable out of the box. Glad I was able to get a pair before they were gone.

I ordered the Ellington boots from Sutro and found they run true to your brannock sizing, which makes ordering such a breeze when it comes to knowing if it will fit or not. Out of the box they were a great fit and very comfortable. The leather quickly breaks in and gives it a warm well worn look which I was a big fan of! I would recommend Sutro for the pricing and quality of the boots they sell.

My first pair of Sutros, and I'm sure glad I went for these. A beautiful boot, and a very comfortable fit, right out of the box. True to size, and only a week in these boots are already feeling like home.

Love at first sight! Immediately noticed the great quality, the leather SMELL, and the COLOR! The fit is perfect for me and I am a true size 8 with my feet on the narrower side. I love the block heel, pointy toe, the stretch sides which aren't too loose or too tight, and the kind of worn look they have. Ughh I love them so much I immediately bought them in black Battery as well. Thank you Sutro! Please make these women's boots in grey!

I love the style of the Battery boot. They are the perfect boot for the fall. I love the color and they are comfortable. I am usually a size 7 but I sized up to 7.5 to have some room to wear socks, tights, etc. So chic!

Growing up as a kid, I always liked the way aged leather looks. They had a character all their own and a story to tell. So, when I came upon Sutro Footwear, I could not pass up the opportunity to take my turn in owning a pair of good leather shoes and inspire a new generation in the stories that a good old pair of leather shoes can tell.

I always love Sutro products! These boots run true to size as I am always a 7.5 in most brands. I also have the Neptune Mules (which run a half size small) and I’ve just ordered the Mendelle boots for Fall. As a NorCal girl and former San Franciscan I enjoy supporting local brands. In my opinion, the craftsmanship is impeccable and better than other quality leather shoe brands like Frye. I know I’ll have these for years to come!

I already had a pair of the black Mendelles that I wore nonstop for three months when I got them in the winter (and only stopped because of Shelter in Place orders, and we don't wear shoes in our house), so when these brown ones came up as factory seconds, I didn't hesitate (and can't even see a real flaw, honestly) -- they fit true to size and are already totally comfortable from day 1, and become even more comfortable with time. The laces get shredded, but those are easy to replace. Love these...

The Alder with Vibram sole are an amazing pair of boots. The black leather looks gorgeous and the almost mahogany colored leather sole And heel go perfect together. This is my 5th pair of Sutros and every pair has been perfect in appearance and comfort. They always fit me true to size and require zero break in. Thanks again for making such great looking and comfortable boots.

I actually was wanting to write you a guys review. So I've been looking for Chelsea leather boots in my size for A LONG TIME!!

Love these shoes. They are the shoes that I've worn the most in my life because they're so comfortable and have a classic look. I bought my mom a pair for Mother's Day and will be buying myself another pair soon. They run about a half size large.

The moment I put these on, it felt like I had owned them for years. They are a perfect fit; so soft and so comfortable. They already felt broken in, while still feeling brand new. I immediately wore them for an entire day and they were comfy to the last minute. And they are such a classic design with little details that I love. I want every style and color of Sutro boots. Where have you been all my life? ❤️

Love the boots! The only thing that concerned me is when I pressed on the toe of the boot to see where my toe was, it left small "cracks" in the surface of the leather.

These are most wonderful pair of boots I have ever owned! The moment I opened the box the smell of leather was overwhelming. That's when I knew I made the right choice. Perfect fit, perfect style and incredibly well made.

Dominique G.
I love the color of these. They are super comfortable and I know I'll have them for a long time. It also feels good to buy from this company. The shoes were sent with a personalized note and I'm glad they weren't manufactured in China. Sutro is right: buy a half size small and they will be perfect. I can't wait to buy another pair from them!

I typically buy sub $100 chukkas, but got tired of them wearing out within a year. When these first arrived, they were a little tough to get on without completely loosening the laces. Once they were on, I felt the quality immediately. These boots hugged my feet slightly firm, but not too tight. Because of the high grade of leather, these kicks will break in perfectly and I expect to have them for quite some time. Pay a little more for these puppies, you'll be so glad you did!

The Sutro experience begins the moment you visit the site- carries strong through the entire communication and customer service process- and finishes with the gorgeous and unique arrival of your shoe. Trust when you buy a pair of Sutros that this is a human company that cares about every single detail of the experience you have when making this investment, if anything goes wrong- trust that it's a smooth and thoughtful process to get the right shoe on your foot. But if you haven't seen these sh...

There's nothing more satisfying than the smell of well-worked leather. Everything about this shoe is perfect - has that old world cobbler feel, comfortable broken-in leather, excellent color, and pleasing design. I will say I'm glad I sized up a half size. I am typically a 6, but boots like these typically are too snug for me in a 6 (my redwings are the same way). The 6.5 fit just right. Very happy with this purchase!

The boots look great, fit perfectly (I ordered my true size,) and are very comfortable. The leather is impressive for a boot in this price range. I ordered grey, but they look more brown in real life. To me, this was a happy surprise. I'll be buying more colors and I'll be looking forward to more styles in the future.

Arrived in Australia quickly, beautiful boots. Sizing advice was spot on, usually a US11.5 but the US11 fits perfectly. Immediately comfortable, looking forward to breaking them in and wearing them out over the next decade.

I usually wear a 9.5 in boots, I ordered the seconds alder in honey in a 9.5 and they were tight with anything but flimsy dress socks. Loved them still and decided to order the alder II in honey as well. Ordered a 10 and I feel like with anything but seconds you can comfortably half size down. But if you go with seconds go half a size up. It’s weird but in my experience that’s what I went through. All in all both boots are quality but I love my Alder II’s more! Getting some black ones soon too! ...

I had purchased a pair of black Alder IIs recently and loved them so much that I ordered the Alder Vibrams in honey. As with the Alder IIs, these were comfortable pretty much right out of the box. Will definitely buy some more for myself and my wife!

I bought the Alder in seconds. I usually buy a size 10 but settled for a 9.5 and wasn’t disappointed. The leather has settled and they look flawless. The color is amazing and I honestly can’t say these look like seconds. I was on the fence about Sutro since I didn’t know much but I’m buying my second pair soon and you can get I’m going straight for the top shelf quality.

These boots felt good from the first moment I put them on and tied them up. They have stretched out a bit, but the leather is flawless and of the highest quality. I looked for the perfect pair of boots for over a year and settled on Sutro. Now I’m going to buy my second pair.

While I've only had them for a few days, I'm thrilled so far! I've had the same style in a different color for a few years, and I'm also very satisfied with them. Overall, I'm a big fan of Sutro shoes!

i love these shoes!!! They dress up any outfit and can be worn with a ton of looks from jeans and t shirt to a fancy romper! I get tons of compliments on them every time I wear them. My feet have to break them in though. I recommend baby powder the first few times so your feet don't blister. But other then that I love them!!

I'm a flat, 9.5 narrow, which can be hard to fit. After ordering the Ortega (good fit for me, plus extra room on top of the foot, which is normal for my flat feet) and the Clay (sadly, way too wide & a bit too short), these are true to size if you wear a thin sock. They might also stretch a bit. If you like very thick socks or wear insoles, size up a 1/2 size. I've got a very narrow foot and find these to be exactly my toebox width, which means that others may need time to stretch them out a bit...

These could be my favorite Sutros. I usually wear my Charltons to death but these are next level comfortable. So sorry to see them go. Hope you bring them back as I’d like to get another pair in black. They fit perfect and have that soft out of the box fit that I’ve come to expect from Sutro. These boots never disappoint.
