Everyday is boot day, even in 95+ degree weather in Salt Lake City, Utah. Preordered these in June and I’m very happy with the new Alders. You gotta try these, they are way more comfortable than the previous alders!

Just received them today and they are awesome!! I’ve owned Alder and Larkin and I wanted boots without laces. These are comfortable and versatile, I’m very happy with my purchase.

Just received this in the mail and broke into them by walking in the park. Really dig the zipper, it somehow still has that masculine look like the other styles. Very comfortable, highly recommend!

I owned a pair of Larkins and my wife got me these for my bday. They are way more comfortable, the Vibram sole gives you that support you need when you’re on your feet for several hours. Gotta get these!

Love these boots!
Comfortable straight out of box!
I’m usually US size 10, ordered 9.5 as recommended - Perfect fit!
Thank you, Sutro!

The quality of the shoes is great. They're comfortable and didn't take too much breaking in order to be soft. My only gripe is that it's a little difficult to lace up and put on -- you can't exactly just slip your foot into them. You have to almost unlace them fully to fit your foot in. Additionally, when wrapping the laces around the boot, sometimes the lace will slide up the bott and just wrap around your actual ankle.
All in all, a good boot quality-wise, but just a bit tight to slide your f...

I’ve owned a pair of Alder and Alder 2 and really like the new features on this upgrade. The back side of the boot snugly wraps around the ankle and the Vibram sole throughout the bottom really makes a difference in your support system.

I ordered the Alder Vibram, Honey color in 10.5. Everything about these shoes are perfect. Looking forward to ordering another style soon!

I love these boots. Classic with a little bit of an edge. Tried on in a store, ordered the color I wanted online, and they look and feel great.

I'm amazed by the quality and look of this boot! Even better that you can get something so special by shopping local. Thanks, Sutro!

Great boots. Fit a half size small, so I'm glad I did not buy them in my normal size. More comfortable than I expected.

I ordered a pair of grey factory seconds and was pleasantly surprised with the overall quality and feel of the boots. I was, however surprised with the color. They are definitely not grey, but maybe that is why they are factory seconds? Either way, I am keeping them because the color is still nice enough for my wardrobe and the quality to price ratio is unbeatable.

Purchased these beautiful boots for my husband’s birthday, and he loves them! Beautifully made (the detailing is exceptionally) and the leather is the most perfect shade of brown leather (warm tone, but no harsh red or mahogany tones). Comfortable from the first wear. Thank you Sutro!

My likes outnumber the few little imperfections of this boot, the quality of the materials and overall design is lovely and better than I've seen elsewhere. I wanted a "Made in Mexico" boot and I found it! Love that it's a San Francisco company!

Leather is superior quality, soft and ready to wear. Returning for smaller sized. During this process I have reminded repeatedly they can refuse refund or return for ANY reason which seems excessive and not reputable. Either way this will be an adventure.

I love my mendelles, I can wear them dressy or casual! Seriously my favorite! I have the honey and now the black!

I got these shoes for my brother as a Birthday gift! He loves them! They fit great and can be dressed up or down. This is his first pair of Sutros (I have a ton) and the quality is amazing. Worth every penny!

The handmade quality is evident, and the look is fantastic. The shoe fits as advertised, and I didn't need a lengthy break in period. Great style and look - not too fabricated, but perfectly worn in :)

These shoes are beautiful and super comfortable. They run large though!! I am usually skeptical of brands saying that, but it's really true here. I like room but I think I need a smaller size.

These are my second pair of Sutros and I love them. My previous pair fit like a glove but these are a bit roomy so I'm using an insole with them. Leather quality and craftsmanship is superior to all others at the price point. I love that they are a family owned business. They ship internationally (these were sent all the way to Melbourne, Australia). I can't wait for the summer styles!

I really like this boot. I usually wear a women’s 11.5-12 and have a very narrow foot. I was thrilled that the 11 fits me so well!

Great looking boots! Nice touches on packaging as you would expect from a trending local company.
Positive: Little break in period, one of a kind styling, nice quality soles.
Disappointments: Super long laces (probably me but I didn’t get it, don’t want to have to wrap my laces around my ankles and then tie) leather seams a little thin. Probably helps with little break in period. I’m super hard on shoes so I’m worried about how long they will last.
Overall: In my opinion and being from a s...

I was initially sent the wrong boots (order the Charton and was sent the Charlton Vibram) and must say I was somewhat put off by that, but I understand things happen.
A rep by the name of Mike was very apologetic & helpful. He express mailed the correct pair and sent a belt and care kit as a way to make amends. This I must say went a long way for me.
On to the boots
Pros:
Beautiful looking boot. Very stylish, great color (dark brown/mahogany)
High quality construction

The brown leather is perfectly supple and required very little break in. I also purchased them in black leather, which was stiffer and took just a little longer to break in.

These shoes are a gem; I'm so glad to own a pair. They are super comfortable right out of the box, and I especially love the toe shape. Had an issue with my order the first time around, but the staff were very immensely receptive and resolved the problem in no time.

These boots beat my expectations. Super comfortable, great design and amazing build quality. Love the fact they are hand crafted.

I love these booties. I have them in tan and black. I also have a pair of regular boots. The quality, style and fit are always spot on with Sutro.

This pair was a factory second with a barely discernable blemish on one of the boots. Actually the 2nd pair I received; the first pair had a functional defect. Sam in Customer Service was amazing; first pair sent back, deemed unrepairable, new pair ordered. Excellent customer service!!!! Love the style of the Ocean boots, exactly what I was looking for. Sturdy, good leather, made in the North American continent.

These boots were fabulous right out of the box! Just what I was looking for and I have worn with jeans and dresses. My pair is a factory second with no overtly apparent defects; I am very pleased with the appearance and quality.

Just got these, and they are already my favorite shoes. As a short person, the I think the low-cut style is more flattering and proportional. I’m between a 8.5 and 9. Tried both and kept the 8.5, and they are already breaking in perfectly. Color is gorgeous and they are very comfortable and soft.

I got it as a birthday gift for my friend and he absolutely LOVES IT. He’s super skinny so the smallest one didn’t fit but he just punched a hole and he loves it.

I purposely ordered a 1/2 size bigger on this shoe, I am a 7.5 and I got a an 8. I may be wearing these shoes to the grave and in the grave. Beautiful!

Half a size smaller seems to be appropriate even for wide feet. The laces are unique.
Only complaint is that your color Grey looks brown (but it is of very good quality nevertheless).

These boots are excellent. The gray leather looks/feels/smells exactly like you want it to. I ordered a full size down ( as recommended) and the fit is great. These boots are light, feel great, and I get no heel lift like I do with chelseas. They look fantastic.
