★★★★☆Engineering R&D
These boots look great. They took a little bit of break in/get used to time. But they're pretty comfortable. They're not as comfortable as lace up, chunkier boots but they're acceptable. It just depends on if you prioritize style slightly higher than comfort. I get new steel toes every year and I'd normally prioritize comfort way over style but I wanted to try these out and so far I'm pretty happy with them.

I love these boots. They took a couple of days to break in wearing them around the house, but they are so comfortable and durable!

★★★★★Environmental
Absolutely love the fit and feel of them. I was shocked that not only could they comfortably fit my wide feet, but a thicker sock is actually ideal! Would probably buy a second pair if they expanded their colors - maybe a different gray or a taupe? So happy with this purchase and glad there's no hot pink lining! Very comfortable to walk around in, and gives a satisfying click on metal grating. Now they just need to figure out safety vests that don't start at men's size M!

★★★★★Hippotherapy
These boots tock all the boxes. I volunteer at Equestrian Connection in Illinois every weekend. Steel toe boots are a must when you're walking next to 1000 lb horses. They're lightweight, stylish and comfortable.

★★★★☆Sappi North America
These shoes are so cute! I am very impressed with the versatility of these shoes. You can go from the hotel, to the airport, to the lab, to meetings, and onto the plant floor without ever having to change shoes. 10/10 would recommend to a friend. The ONLY reason why I did not give these 5 stars is that mine weathered a little too easily. As a result of this, I try to save them for important days when I need a little extra confidence boost :)

★★★★★Architecture Firm
Great, comfortable, stylish boot.

★★★★☆Door and Window Warehouse
Beautiful and cute. The only female steel-toes I have been able to find that I love. This is my second pair. They do scuff quite easily (at least with what I do) and I needed a replacement within a year because the boot lost all of its support in the foot and ankle. But when I needed a new pair I went right back and bought another. Not to mention the adorable notes and personal experience you get with this company. I hope Xena can continue to develop their boot to make them more durable and stronger as well as last longer, but until then I will still be a customer :)

★★★★☆Anderson window and door
Great shoes, well made and comfy. One of the straps broke on the second day but it’s in a place where I can sew it. They definitely run small! Size up!! And if you want to wear insoles size 1 full size up! Please take their advice and break them in before you wear them, overall great shoes though.

★★☆☆☆Aviation manufacturing
Boots are very cute and work for the job. Pretty uncomfortable; was expecting to be better than typical steel toes.

★★☆☆☆Deployment Engineer/Construction Engineer
I REALLY wanted to love these. I even spent extra of my own money, beyond company reimbursement to get these. They were too narrow at the toe as if the steel toed cap is shaped like one of those horrible center pointy-toed shoes that used to be fashionable. The widest part of the shoe just before the toe cap is fine, actually maybe a little too wide. I went up a full size from what I originally ordered (and returned) and it didn't make a difference at all, they actually felt the exact size same as the ones I returned. So basically too small but only in top of the toe. They also scratched easily, within the first week, and I didn't do anything intensive actually barely wore them, actually not sure how they got scratched because I wasn't near any machinery, it almost looks like the outer coating layer/sealant of the leather just got completely scratched off. They also significantly discolored any socks I wore with them for the first 2 months which ruined a couple of very expensive pairs sadly. Also smelled horribly for the first couple months. Not like a leather small. The price tag was too high for the product I got and I'm sad.

★★★★★Electrical Engineering for ship maintenance
The boots look great and are quite functional. The toe box is a touch narrower than I'm used too. I've previously been in Keens with one of the chunkier toe boxes in the market, so its been a little bit of an adjustment. Overall I'm pretty happy with them. I feel put together when heading to meetings and inspections at the worksite or in the office. Have yet to wear them through any serious weather here in the PNW, but I imagine they will have some water seep through the zippers.

★☆☆☆☆Avionics Technician
I loved these boots at first, they are unbelievably comfortable and light plus I love that they are so stylish. However, after two months the left side zipper pull fell off while I was working. I thought it must have been a manufacturing error so I didn’t bother with contacting customer service but then only a month later the right side zipper pull fell off too! This is not just inconvenient, it’s a safety hazard. Especially as someone who works in the aerospace industry, those little zipper pulls would be considered FOD and could down an aircraft. As for now, I’ve placed zip ties on my zipper sliders until I can order new boots. Very disappointed, as I’ve loved every other thing about these ones.

★★★★★Nuclear Defense
I could not love these boots more!!! As a manufacturing engineer, I spend lots of time out on the plant floor walking around, so comfort is critical. And these are the most comfortable safety shoes I’ve worn. But it gets better - they truly are a beautiful, high quality boot. I spend equal amounts if not more time in my office, so I like to wear somewhat dressy clothes. And these boots compliment a dress pant/blouse outfit just as well as something I could find at Nordstrom!! I am beyond happy with my purchase, especially supporting a woman-founded and owned company - so awesome!! Let’s get more girls in STEM!! Oh, the boots did take a few days to break in. I ordered a size 10; my normal size is 9.5

★★★★☆Electrical construction, traffic division
I got these shoes as a more professional looking steel toe when I transitioned from journeyman in the field to project manager. They are comfortable and very good looking shoes. I treated the leather before wearing and highly recommended you do too. The leather is great quality but without creams/protectant they’ll start looking like my loggers in no time. Only arguably major downfall of these shoes is that the zipper is on the outside. I’m currently three months pregnant and I’m not sure I’ll be able to get to the zipper where it is once I’m massive as easily as I could if the zipper was on the inside of the boot. At the end of the day I still throw one foot up on my other knee and reach for a non existent zipper on the inside just to end up stretching down and reaching for the outside of the shoe. It’s going to get pretty comical in another few months. Also- size up half a size as suggested. I’m normally a roomy 7 and got the 7-1/2 and it fits exactly like my 7’s in other boots.

Love these! I'm going to recommend them to all the women I work with.

Love them! So cute and equally as comfortable! Also, perfect boots for riding motorcycles :)

★★★★★
I love my boots. I've worn sorry men's work boots. I always disliked them. Then perusing through my Facebook I see these workboots that look light but protect like any other work boot but look classy. Except these boots are better because you can jump, hop, skip and run staying safe without feeling that ugly bulky weight on your feet. Happy feet productive worker.

★★★★★Manufacturing
Absolutely LOVE my Xenas! Common co-worker comments are "Are those actually steel toes?" or "OMG I need those - where did you get them?" So proud of this small business from my home state of Wisco. It is TOUGH figuring out what to wear as a woman in a manufacturing environment, luckily this is one thing I don't have to worry about! Checks all the boxes for fit, form & function. Thank you Xena team!

★★★★★Precision Machine
Love the look. And they are comfortable. I bough a half size larger and they are a little too long, but feel okay with thinker socks. I don’t wear them all day, one a few times a week when I go out into the plant. I’d buy them again, I would love to have a darker pair someday if they make the Vegan style in dark leather.

★★★★★Plant
Great shoes. Cute and Comfortable

★★★★★Yantis Company
I am a heavy equipment service mechanic in the field. I was hesitant about these at first but I am glad that I did get them. So far they have held up and done well with everything that I go through every day.

★★★★★Outside Machinist at NNSY
I am so pleased to find a boot that I feel was personally catered towards me! The Omega boots are absolutely perfect for the work environment I am in! I can’t wait to spread the word about Xena to the other woman at the yard!
-
★★★★★ABB
I am loving my new Xena's! It is so empowering to be able to walk around in shoes that are safe, and fit your style. It's a little thing that makes a huge difference. I will be recommending these shoes to all my female friends in manufacturing.

★★★★★Electrician
So far I’ve worn them a week, I got them a half size bigger and unfortunately the tie is still a lil too snug. Maybe after a few weeks of wearing them that will work itself out. I don’t have a particularly wide foot but they look great. I’m afraid Id the leather night not hold up to a new construction jobsite but I’m more then willing to take the journey of finding out. I’m a member of a female electricians group and they r waiting eagerly to find out how they work out over time! Adventures!

★★★★★Merchant Marine
Excellent product staffed by outstanding people. I had to do an exchange for a bigger size and they worked with me through the whole process. It spanned a lot of movement as I was out to sea, overseas, and then coming back to the US. It all ended well and I finally got the shoes that fit me great! They are lightweight and beautiful 😍 my own mother had nothing but compliments and even tried to steal them from me.

★★★★★Marathon Petroleum Corp
Amazing work boots. I work with heavy caustic, sulfuric acid, oils and water daily. After wearing these for a few days, they still look great. I got worried the first time they got wet, but as soon as they dried they looked new again. Pretty comfortable, I just wish the “wide” had a wider steel toe, as it’s basically the most narrow part of the shoe, and it can rub the pinky toe.

★★★★★Life Cycle Engineering
I ordered these boots because my company does government contracting work on ships in San Diego. I was in desperate need of a steel toe boot that I could wear while in the shipyard and also wear when I commuted back to the office. I ordered the Xena Omega EH Safety Boot in black, in size 10.5. I'm normally a size 10, but I followed the website's direction and ordered a half size up. I completely love this shoe! My only complaint is that at first it's difficult to slip on, but once it stretches out just a smidge, it's crazy comfortable. I actually plan to order this shoe in brown so I can match my daily outfits.

★★★★★Manufacturing
I absolutely love these boots. They are comfortable, light weight, and gorgeous. I am very happy with them! A second pair is in my near future foe sure.

★★★☆☆Food Service/Management
Cute shoes, great quality, love the loop in the back for easy pull on. You must absolutely follow their advice - you need to get a size bigger than you usually do. These are not super comfortable for long hours and wrecked my feet for the first two weeks I wore them. I highly recommend gel inserts (to which you need a bigger size so the shoes still fit you). I do not recommend these for food service work as you will be sad when you get food on them because they're so good looking :), also they're heavy in weight - not ideal for running around in. Don't forget to get a bigger size!
-
★★★★★Project Manager
I’m in love with my boots! After they broke in a little more I found them extremely functional and comfortable! I love that I can wear them with any outfit. I sized up half a size as recommended and they fit great! I appreciate a more stylish option for women that aren’t pink or unavailable in smaller sizes!
-
★★★★★Construction
I am so glad I bought two pairs - one black, the other brown - before starting my new job on a construction project. They are sleek, comfortable, and are appropriate for any situation. I also have extremely small feet (size 4-1/2) and none of the other “big brands” made professional steel-toed boots small enough for me. Xenia’s sizing made it a no-brainer to choose their boots!
-
★★★★★Human Resources Mgr in a Warehouse Environment.
Love how stylish these boots are. Ordered them in black. The fit is great and complement my professional attire when I need to go into the warehouse.

★★★★★Oil Refinery in Chalmette Louisiaa
I love these boots. They look and feel great. I ordered a half a size up and they fit perfect. My coworker asked me if they were real steel toe boots, he said they looked too good to be real and he also said that women get all the good stuff. I had to walk through floodwaters during a downpour (normal for Louisiana summers) and the boots got soaked. I was afraid they were ruined but after a day of drying out, they were fine again! Thank you Xena!

★★★★★Manufacturing Engineering
LOVE THEM! I always struggled with feeling like I lost my femininity having all the necessary PPE on in a plant. These shoes motivated me to dress up a little more and feel more feminine again!

★★★★★N/A
Ok, full disclosure, I normally don't need steel toed safety boots in my job, but I do want protection when I ride my motorcycles. I also wanted a pair of ankle boots so I ordered these. The leather and boot is very high quality (shoe addict here). The first time I put them on they were hard to get on. I used a shoe horn the second time and it was easier. By the third time, they had molded to my feed and shoe horn is no longer needed. Motorcycle gear shifter tend to eat boots. So far these are holding up just fine and are very comfortable! Solid five star rating here!

great to walk and sit in.

★★★★★Manufacturing
Amazing boot! It took a second try getting the perfect fit but it’s great for everyday wear to work. Other boots felt like big cinder blocks on my feet.

★★★★★UPS
First off, I do love my boots. They're great. I'm on my feet on concrete for my whole shift, and I love them. There are two teenie tiny flaws, that may just be me. Around my ankle/heel area feels a bit loose, not like my foot is going to come out or anything just like there is a bit more room there. I also did get some rubbing I guess were my foot met the steel. Honestly both problems will probably be fixed with a thicker pair of socks, but thought I should mention them.

★★★★★Manufacturing
Stylish and safe!

★★★★★Wastewater
They are fantastic. These shoes have a nice weight to them, but are not in any way "clunky" or difficult to walk in. And they are so beautiful that I've worn them to an outdoor concert where I ended up stepping on a nail or staple or some piece of metal! My foot was so protected! I'm so glad they are so versatile and that I can wear them outside of work too. I love these!

★★★★★The War Memorial
We are in the process of building a world class cultural center. We visit the construction site often and I wanted something stylish but safe and durable. These boots fit the bill! I am so happy with the fit and can walk through the site with ease. Thank you Xena!

★★★★★MEP CONSTRUCTION
I love them!! They are really de most comfortable and beautifull safety shoes I have ever had. I work in Costa Rica, and the wheater changes a lot in just few hours, going from Sunny to rainy but with my Xenas, I always feel great!

★★★★★Manufacturing
I love my Xena's! They are so comfortable and stylish. As a Safety Engineer - I need to lead by example, I'm also questioned more frequently. So many people didn't believe these were safety shoes because of how amazing they look!

★★★★★Austin County EMS
Shipping is fast, the boots are quality leather and absolutely beautiful shine! I am so happy with the fit, and I did have to exchange my experience with the exchange was so easy! An Amazing guy walked me through it over the phone so customer service is top notch! I will buy again next time and have already recommended them to my coworkers. Best service,quality and comfort! 5*!!!

★★★★★HVAC
These boots are amazing so far. I’m between a size 7 or 7.5 and based on the reviews I ordered 7.5 which fits perfectly. They are not too heavy and very stylish, does not look like the typical bulky construction boots. I’ve been wearing them around the house for a couple hours and I’m excited to wear them out in the field to find out how it feels after a long work day. The shipping was also very fast, I got them in 2 days. I would definitely recommend!

★★★★★Amentum
I absolutely love the Omega EH safety boot. What I love the most is how you can't feel the steel toe like you can in most other boots. And I can still look cute at work in my coveralls! Thanks for making me still feel like a woman while at work! These boots are badass! And I will be ordering more I'm sure of it!!
-
★★★★★Supply chain
The boots are very stylish and comfortable. People at work can’t believe they are steel- toe shoes.

★★★★★Personal Use
I have been looking for a while to find boots that fit my needs, and I was so happy to find these. They fit perfectly, look amazing, and are extremely sturdy. The quality is amazing!

★★★★★Manufacturing
I LOVE these boots! Currently have my 2nd pair and getting a 3rd when the limited edition pair comes out in the fall! Ended up going with a wide size this time around and it was a perfect fit. Feel like I can rule the world in these boots!
