East End Porter

Wickedly..Witch..Witch

Teresa - Santa Paula

Love at first sight!!... I had never heard of this brand before, and as I walked along Pine St in Seattle while vacationing, I was drawn to the colorful shoes starring at me through the window. I had already told myself I wasn't going to make any more purchases for the remainder of my stay and well I had to check out the place and I fell in love with the brand, I chose these because of the style. I really love them, the only downfall is that they are hard to put on, and they hurt a little on the insole, but with any leather, you have to break them in.

It’s all about the Peacock

Susan - Berkeley CA

Went into to Grant Street store in SF to look at a completely different style and these were recommended to me by the team there. It was love at first try. Wasn’t even looking for a low boot but these are irresistible in the peacock. They fit like they were made for my feet - slightly wide in the toe with high arch and narrow heel. Wore them straight out of the box for a long day of travel and needed zero break-in. They look fabulous with skirts & dresses as well as jeans and leggings. Can’t wait to see what else you have in store for this line.

Wonderful shoe, good for work and play

Randi - Baltimore, MD

As soon as these came out I had my eye on them. I purchased the Venebles last winter and wore them constantly. These have the same heel so I was thinking I would also be happy with them. I purchased them in my Fluevog regular size 9 and in the black color. They are terrific. Just the right combination of spunk but conservative enough to wear to work. A staple in my wardrobe.

They put a spell on me...

Paige - Virginia

....because they're mine! I love these so much. I have a very witchy pair of Fluevogs with a swordfish toe and 5 little buckles that I purchased in 1991 that long ago became unwearable. I always said that if he came out with another style that I loved as much as that one, I would pounce on them. I like these even better. They have just the right vibe and are incredibly comfortable. I always take a size 8.5 US and 39 Euro. I got these in 8.5 and they're a perfect fit.

While my Venables & Gladstone size of 8.5 felt okay, I ended up with Porter--the glorious green!--in 9 as I have a high instep and the 9 just felt a bit better. I also will wear them with a medium Smartwool-type sock, not hosiery. First wearing was all day comfy, no rubbing or issues.

the green color makes me weep

Wendy - MPLS

I went into the MPLS store to try these in green, that tealish forest that makes me weep. I wear a street 10.5 with widish feet, high arch and narrow heel. The 11 here is perfect. The buckle gives you some room to adjust the shoe. The heel has a nice cup for a high arch and the heel is sturdy. What a win! I do not think the super narrow feet people will be so happy with this lovely statement boot but for those of us more on the wider side with arch needs, this could not be better. For reference, my fav fit family is Wherevers. I have no pain when wearing these at all. I would not say they are especially narrow as I cannot wear any of the Vog narrow shoes like Pilgrams.

I love these boots!

Catherine - New Orleans

I am sad that I had to return them. I normally wear an 11.5, and I ordered both colors in that size. The length was perfect, but the pain across the middle of my foot was awful. I wore them for five minutes, and that was all I could stand. They are narrow. I love the peacock color. It will go with everything. I recommend these shoes if you have narrow feet.
