text: I rarely take the time to write product reviews, but decided to do so in this case. I purchased these boots in black in my usual Naturalizer size. They arrived exactly as pictured and fit quite comfortably right out of the box. HOWEVER, after wearing them for only one day I am returning them for a refund due to what can only be described as a surprising defect. Although they fit me perfectly, after only a single day of wear the reinforcing internal lining of the toe box area on each boot buckled, leaving a very visible valley or indentation directly down the middle of the toe area of each boot. This indentation is unsightly and uncomfortable, and extremely surprising to me considering the brand name.  In the past I have always found Naturalizer products to be of high quality and unquestionable comfort. In fact, in all other aspects these boots are excellent, but the nice initial appearance lasted only a few hours before the defect appeared.  Reluctantly, I am returning to square one in my search for boots.
