“I picked these up at a great price during the last sale but I was a bit concerned with how I’d go with wearing heels all day. I’m pretty tall (176cm) so I typically don’t go for heels but I really needed/wanted some classic boots. These are it! I have a mild to moderate bunion on one foot, and these boots accommodated really well. In terms of sizing, I’m usually a 40 and a 40 was perfect in these. I was able to wear them to work (standing on a train), went for a walk at lunch time etc, with no issues. Didn’t require breaking in! Really happy with these!”
“I have been to both stores (Manchester lane and Armadale) as well as purchased online, the service is excellent, they're knowledged in their products and were very friendly & helpful. The metaltail is comfortable, leather is soft and beautiful, the height of the heel is also perfect, i can wear it all day long! really happy with the purchase”
“I bought these online and got my regular size but shoes were too big. I took them into the city store and was so well looked after, no problem exchanging for the next size down. The heel is a little higher than I’m used to but they’re so comfy! Really looking forward to getting my next Bared pair.”
“Very impressed by the customer service of Bared. I recently purchased a pair of Metaltails and they didn’t really live up to my expectations. When I reached out to the Bared team they were understanding and offered to swap out my pair. I was sincerely surprised at the offer and now super in love with my boots again.”
“I thought I got a lot of compliments on my Firecrests, but my snake leather metaltails have definitely taken over that title, so many compliments whenever I wear them! An amazing statement piece that’s comfortable to wear all day long.”
“I was really excited about these boots but when I wore them out on the weekend I ended up getting painful cuts on my leg where the top of the boot is. The boot provided adequate padding on the foot but the leather was way too stiff. I only walked for 15 mins before my leg became red and cuts appeared making it nearly too painful to walk. This is shame because the foot was actually quite comfortable.”
Hi Kira,
Thanks for your review. I am sorry to hear that you are unhappy with the wear of your shoes.
As discussed, as the boots are made from leather they will eventually soften with wear and we usually recommend wearing them around the house with thick socks and wearing the zips halfway down.
Let us know how you go with the gel spots/pads that we posted out to you to try along with the above tips :)
Kind Regards,
The Bared Team
“This is my first pair of Bared shoes and I am just looking for a reason to buy more. These boots have been so comfortable. I feel like I could walk to Sydney in them. They are such a statement and go with literally everything in my closet! I have received so many compliments on them too.”
“Love, love, love my boots! This is my 3rd pair of Bared shoes and my absolute fave at the moment. The comfort, arch support and sleek styling makes for the best boot experience.”
