"These boots are fantastic! True to size, well made and so comfortable. The first time I wore them, I was in them for about 10 hours and my feet didn't hurt at all! I don't recommend wearing them in the rain though. They aren't waterproof and they get water spots on them very quickly." http://www.amazon.com/review/R2JZVAM5NXDVTQ/ref=cm_cr_rdp_perm
Oops, and I just dissed Blowfish earlier about making a boot that wasn't waterproof. So, I had to revise my theory on boots. If they are super hot, like the Nine West Nuri... then they can get away with being non-waterproof. But if they are built to look cute and somewhat durable, like the Blowfish boot, then they should also be a decent amount of water-resistant.
But, it could also be all my bad for not treating my boots. I guess if I loved my shoes as much as I say I do, then I would have treated them with some water-resistant stuff, right? I guess I just haven't thought about it until now. Ironic, I know, since I live in a rainforest. Any recommedations on water resistant stuff out there?
Oh well. Back to the Nuri boot. I wrote this review over a year ago, and I still totally love these boots. They have stood up well to my wear and tear and are still cute and in great condition. I don't wear them on rainy days, because I don't want wet toes, but as far as durability and comfort, they are at the top of my list.
I also get tons of compliments when I wear them. They go great with skirts and skinny jeans, and they are slim enough that you can tuck them under regular jeans as well. I did that for a really long time until I worked up the nerve to wear skinny jeans again. Now I love them (the skinny jeans).
Anyway, Nine West can do no wrong in my book. I haven't found a pair of Nine West shoes that aren't true to size, comfortable or amazing... so they are my fall back brand. Boots like the Nuri just reinforce that opinion for me.
