VALENTE Mens Leather Cuban Heel Boots Black

Sole could do with more cushioning

Very disappointing boots. The pictures give the impression that the leather is high quality, but when the boots arrived I was shocked at how poor it looked. No shine, not very black, and creased badly. The sole is almost certainly not leather as it has a plasticy smell to it. I wouldn’t bet the zipper would last long either, as both it and the whole inside is very flimsy. I’d be happy paying £40 for them, £50 at a push, but certainly not £95.

Avoid, avoid, avoid.

Extremely disappointed with these boots. The style is absolutely beautiful, and is what made them so attractive in the first place, but the quality is very poor. The pictures and video are rather deceiving as it implies the leather is of a good standard and has a high shine. However, when opening the box I was surprised with how dull, cheap and light the boots felt. The sole is almost certainly not leather, it has a shiny coating to it and smells nothing like what leather should. The upper is clearly very cheap and does not crease how leather should. The inside is even worse as there is some kind of foam coating lining the boot. I'm not confident the zip would last very long either.

I don't usually write reviews, but I'm so disappointed I felt I had to, especially if it means preventing others from buying them. The only reason I'm giving two stars is for how stunning they look, but everything else is substandard and worth no more than 1 star. I'd be quite happy paying £40-50 for them in a sale, but certainly not £95. I'm glad I bought a prepaid returns label as I will be returning ASAP.

Overall, avoid at all costs, unless you want to waste your money.

Terrible, zipper broke after one outing
