'Harken' Leather Chukka Boot (Men)

I've always liked the looks of the Steve Madden shoe line and this shoe was no exception. I bought two pairs, one in black and one in brown to go with most of my attire. The shoes were very comfortable on the carpet and tile in my house. So, what could be wrong? The shoe has a "flop" sound when walking on a hard surface. But, this is pretty typical for boots, Chukka's in particular. Parenthetically, my Timberland Wodehouse Chukka do the same thing. Given the mechanics of Chukka boots this is a good looking boot that is also very comfortable.

Every once in a while a classy looking shoe comes along that I would like to wear. However, when it gets to sizing, "they never have my size-14". In the case of the Steve Madden 'Harken" leather Chukka Boot, they had my size, albeit, the maker said to order one size up because the shoes run smaller. So, I did. From a "14" I went up to a "15". The shoes fit perfectly and wear well with levis or slacks. I got an immediate compliment from one of the most fashion critic person's on the planet, my wife.

Excellent shoe. Very stylish and comfortable. My only issue with the purchase was that the website said the shoe was “true to size” so I ordered it in my normal size 10. When i got them they were a bit large. Exchange process was very easy over the phone. Received a 9 1/2 just a few days later.

I purchased these for my partner and he loves them! and he is very particular! There was no need to break them in. The boots were comfortable from the moment he put them on and he wore them to an event where he was on his feet for 5 hours! The boots are versatile and can be dressed up with a nice pair of khakis and look great with denim too!
