They lasted for two years mostly in the box and broke the third day of work with constant use. One of the zippers broke and the ankle is awkward. The ankle doesn’t fit correctly and folds over on itself. I tried contacting my customer support but have not received any feedback. I have a pair of Danners and this pair lasted me for over eight years with constant wear. I don’t recommend buying a pair of Xena. It’s a waste of money.

I really love these boots. Only a narrow calf left so it was worth a try. Beautiful boots.

I wish these had fit, alas too small. :-( The return/exchange service is second to none. I returned the beautiful boots and am purchasing a different pair. Thank you Xena!

So pumped for a safety toe riding boot!! I wear an 8.5W in Gravity and an 8.5 in Omega. I needed a 9 in Nova for a similar fit. They are so stylish that I get a *lot* of questions about whether they are safety shoes, so I started carrying the Xena card in a clear pouch with my company ID. They are a great way to talk to lots of people about Xena and all they have to offer.

I'm about a week shy of wearing the absolute **** out of these boots for a solid year. Working in trash, in an extreme desert environment, through rain, snow, mud and high temperatures. They were endlessly comfortable, always productive and safe, and are only now desecrated through torn hems and the steel toe causing blisters. They lasted so long through wet and dirty trash. I certainly did not take the best care of them through the hard work, and would guarantee they'd last longer with proper maintenance. Most grateful for the recent release of the Nova 2.0, on to my next pair!

A make co-worker sent me this company via LinkedIn. I fell in love with the style, Women ownership and I wish I could say the boots I purchased too. As an EHS professional, I have worn safety boots/shoes for almost 2 decades. I followed the sizing recommendations, but they are just unbearably uncomfortable. Given the price I was expecting to be blown away. They’re beautiful, quality and stylish, but just not practical for an actual working professional. Now they’re just going to waste in my closet, because they hurt my feet bad enough that I can’t even wear them on an ‘office day’. 😢

This boots are the stylish safety boots I ever worn. The only issue I have had was with my left ankle, the inside of the boot may need alittle more cusion because the material and a stich seam dug into the side of my ankle, I resolved it by getting an ankle guard and an extra layer of padding. Besides that I love them and have bought another pair from Xena and saving up to get another pair as well. Also I had bought these last spring 2023 so it was out of there return or exchange policy.

I have these boots for 3 years now and people stop me all the time to ask if I have safety boots on! I say yep from my favorite company and I send them to your website to check out your stuff. Love your products and what you stand for!!!

My 1 star review is because it is not size inclusive for us girlie's with bigger calves. I returned the 2.0 version, was only able to squeeze in my right. Apparently one side of my calf is bigger than the other. But hear me out I was desperate so I order it again, one size bigger since I loved my very first pair of the previous version. At last I can squeeze in my left calf. Still a very tight fit, can't wear it over jeans or anything thicker than leggings. Every hour I do have to unzip the left side to make sure it doesn't cut my blood circulation.

These boots are perfect! Do not even look like Steel Toe shoes! I work in the office and they go perfectly with all my outfits and the great thing I don’t have to change shoes! I wear a 7.5 and ordered an 8. These boots were not hard to break in at all. The material/style is great! Cannot wait for more options/colors to become available.

Love these shoes. Good traction, comfy for steel toe shoes, great seal on sole, and cute. I get asked if they are safety shoes and I am proud to show proof. The only thing I would critique is the zipper. The tab for the zipper have broken off on both boots. But it still zips so just had to replace the tab to pull zipper up/down. But I have had these shows for over a year which is pretty good for the use I put them through compared to other common work shoes.

LOVE the boots. I originally ordered the Spice boots but they did not fit my feet well at all. The return process was super quick and easy and I'm glad I exchanged them for a different style! I ordered the Nova 1.0 Slim, I ended up ordering a whole size larger than I usually do (would have also ordered wide if they were in stock in my size) and they fit great! The calves were actually too tight when they arrived but have broken in nicely. Very comfortable and perfect for this nasty cold weather we're having right now! Great experiences with customer service and in love with my gorgeous new boots!!
