Pajar

The first order, I sent back as I ordered the size 40, after reading the reviews. I have a narrow foot with a high arch. I normally wear a size 7-1/2 - 8 and a 9 in aerobic shoes. I chose the size 39 and it is a perfect fit. I LOVE the look and color!!! Easy to put on! I will use in NC in the winter.

Again, a pleasure doing business.

very good

Good or bad, I have not had an occasion to wear my boots. The weather here in the Chicago area,no heavy rain or snow of sny sizable accumulation.

The boots where wet inside on the first day of use. By the end of winter, they were cracked and one zipper was broken. When I wrote to Pajar about it they told me that they considered normal for thier boots made in China to go to scrap by the end of one winter and that I lacked common sense to think otherwise.

the shaft was way too narrow and I couldn't even get my foot in. I have small feet and have never had this problem before. There is no zipper or opening and it was impossible for me to get my foot into the bottom part of the boot.

I only just received these so I cannot comment yet on performance. But the pamphlet attached to the boot says the boot is manufactured with a 100% waterproof bladder. It says nothing about breathable and provides instructions on drying out the boot should the interior get wet from perspiration. As to the size: I ordered two full sizes up because 1) reviewers recommended going a full size up, 2) I have a slightly wide foot and normally buy 1/2 to 1 full size larger for width, and 3) I plan to wear heavy wool socks with these. I am satisfied with the fit with heavy wool socks and the shoe with the heavy socks is a little over 1/2 too long. That's really fine.

I loved the look of these boots (on-line) but in person, I found the foot to be an odd shape and fit - sort of a flat wide foot that also seemed to dig into my skin - though not because it was too tight - just oddly shaped. sent them back

These boots are exactly what I expected, they are really warm.

A friend bought her daughter a pair of Pajar boots to wear at college in Michigan and her daughter raved about how warm her boots are. I haven't had a chance to wear mine outside yet, but they do feel very cozy with the thick lining. As for fit, I ordered a size 37 (US 6-6 1/2) and normally wear a size 6 1/2, and these fit fine in the length, and I will probably wear a medium-weight sock with them. I don't think I could fit a heavy sock into the boot though. I do agree with some of the other reviewers that the boots are a bit tight across the top of the foot where the leather "shoe" is stitched to the canvas upper. It's not so tight that the boots are cutting into the top of my foot but it's snug. If you have a wide foot or high instep it might be more of an issue. Hoping for snow soon so I get to wear these!
