Franco Kiana Tall Boot

I received these boots a week ago. I work from home and everything is locked down, so I have only worn these out to go pick up lunch twice. Because of where the groove is placed in the rubber of the heel, the heel doesn't land evenly, and the rubber of the sole is already splitting. From less than a mile of walking. The placement of the rubber on the bottom of the heel, for aesthetic purposes, compromised the structural integrity of the shoes. It's such an unbelievable design mistake I have to really question who thought it was a good idea. Franco Sarto did offer a return when I called-- I'm super bummed because they're pretty and they fit my feet (with a bunion so they're wide enough) REALLY well, but they're nice shoes, they shouldn't be having this problem already. They're the perfect shaft height for someone who is 5'9" and the arch is well placed and the balance of the foot is supported. These are made in India, btw.

Bought these to replace an old pair of knee high camel color riders I had from Franco that my dog ate two years ago. So comfortable and so cute! Love them!!! Happy these showed up this year because they are almost the same as my older boots, but these are even better. Don't hesitate, true to size, comfortable block heel!

The Franco Kiana Tall Boot in Bordeaux is gorgeous and highlights my 5'10" frame. I am so happy that I purchased them. So excited to wear them this season. Will purchase another pair after the holiday! Thank you, Franco Sarto.
