Hi I’m considering a pair of Fly London boots and have seen these, has anyone got either? Are the comfy? True to size? Thanks

I have the second pair (plus another knee length pair). I find them comfy, warm, and enough depth to the toebox for my orthotic. Which means I describe them as true to size, as I wear orthotics all the time, in all my shoes, but may actually mean they are on the big side. The only issue I have with fly boots is they squeak and fart terribly and make me very staticky. I believe in both cases the rubber soles are to blame. I believe the squeaking and farting is due to air being forced in and out of the air pockets in the rubber as you walk. However, that rubber sole also makes them comfy for me, so I tolerate it. (I want the lace up ones as well)

I've got the 2nd ones and mine have never farted! I find them very comfy.

I would say they are a wide fit and size down if you're in between sizes. I'm normally a 6.5 but the 6 is perfect in Fly Boots.

I love the look of fly boots but mine fell to bits within a month :(

I have the first ones. They are super comfortable. I am size 4.5 - 5 snd have them in 5. I have had a number of different types over the years (Salv, Yama, Yoss, Phil, Sade and others). They fit well and don't make squeaky noises on me. I love Fly London boots especially as they're so colourful Smile.

I have 4 pairs of Fly boots. I love them all though one do squeak as above. I got one pair resoled recently and will get another 5 or so winters out of them. I also have two pairs of shoes from them and I adore them. Some I've had for years, some I've got this year. 👍 all the way! I find them true to size.

Thank you. I think I might order both and then choose! Or keep both.....

I love my fly boots walked miles in them so comfortable- I found true to size but I wear them with thick socks

Love Fly London boots and have had a pair but I found they didn't stay watertight for long. Around the toes seemed to be the worst. So only wear them in the dry now. Lovely and comfy though.

I have a pair of salv boots. They are the most uncomfortable boots I have ever worn and they squeak. I hate them

There are loads of reviews about them not being at all waterproof, which for a winter boot is a bit daft in my opinion!

They are lovely to look at though.
