Elements Women's Erika Waterproof Wide Width Winter Combat Bootie

I bought this boot last year in winter time for Shoe Co. I loved it, and today Zipper brock in half, now I don't know how to fix it. I wear this boots only in winter time so technically I worn on 3 to 4 months. not recommending due to cheap quality.

Are they cute? Absolutely. Are they actually wide-fit? Only if I've been lied to about other wide-fit shoes my whole adult life. I tried these on in-store - thank goodness - and could barely get my foot into it. If you're on the borderline of regular & wide width, these would probably be good but if you're on the wide border...avoid.

I bought these back in November because I was looking to replace a much cheaper pair I’d worn literally until they were falling apart. I originally bought those from a fast-fashion store years ago for around $20–$30. After they got pretty beat up, I even used them as gardening boots over the summers so they served their purpose for a long time. When I tried these on in the store, I immediately loved them. At first, I didn’t think I’d wear them much in colder winter weather, but they’ve turned out to be really comfortable and surprisingly warm. I haven’t walked in deep snow with them very often since I usually opt for taller boots for that, but from what I’ve read, they’re also quite waterproof. So far, I honestly can’t find anything negative to say. I have wide feet and found the fit to be just right. That said, if you like wearing thicker socks or have very wide feet, they may feel a bit snug and you might want to consider sizing up. As for durability, it’s hard to say long-term since I’ve only had them for a few months. However, my previous (much cheaper) pair lasted for years, even from an obviously low-quality online retailer, and I’ve only just gotten rid of them now that I know I’ll be keeping these for the long run. Interestingly, the zipper on that old pair eventually snapped in half, but I could still zip them up. I also noticed someone else mentioned that the zipper pull (the little tab) broke on these after about a year also, so that’s something to be aware of. Still, if the boots are otherwise in good shape, that seems like an easy fix, so it doesn’t concern me much. I bought these on sale and was able to use some of my rewards points as well, which made them very affordable. Considering they’re a definite upgrade from my last pair, I’m really happy with this purchase and have even considered buying them in black. I chose the brown pair because I wear brown shoes far more often than black.
