Product Reviews for Scott R Shearling Lined Derby Boot in Bronze Rub Off Grain Leather
I have two pairs of Scott boots, one in the bronzed brown finish and a special make in a dark chocolate brown. Have worn them religiously as my go to winter boots for 7-years now and no exaggeration, they look at good as new.They are a very robust, super warm, and surprisingly versatile boot. They are an investment yes, but given their longevity and the fact that there really is nothing quite like the Scott boot in the market, I would not hesitate recommending them to all who value winter warmth with style!
Purchased last winter after trying out in Covent Garden shop, my advice would be to up a size or least a half to account for the shearling finish. Great for autumn and winter use , easily best boots I’ve purchased after many years of searching and the colour and finish are incredible.
These are really nice. Stunning soft leather and a lovely full boot lining.The only trouble is that they're very narrow at the vamp. I have Cheaney Chelsea and Chukka boots in the same size and width (F) which are great. But I had to (painfully) force my feet into these in such a way that I thought the leather might tear - yet there was still a looming amount of space at the toe. Unfortunately one to be returned!Size up!
These are the best boots I've ever had and I've had a fair few. Perfect fit, great build quality and super comfortable from the 1st wear. Well done Cheaney!
The boots themselves are what I expected from Cheaney, however, a problem I have add with recent purchases is sizing. having owned a pair of Pennine 2's for years in size 9 which are a perfect fit all the boots I've tired in this size have been too big and the Scott's are no exception. Cheaney have also allowed for the lining and therefore the boots are I would say a full size too big, possibly a size and a half. Sadly I couldn't order a smaller size as sold out. In summary beautiful boots but I would recommend ordering at least a half size smaller.
Looking at the price, i was a little unsure considering i had never seen them in person and was doing my purchase from US online.I must say these are right on top of my 15+ boot collection. These are beautiful and solidly made, i have enjoyed them for this past month and cant stop admiring them and the fact that they are so comfortable.This was my first British Boot, it has ensured that it will definitely not be the last.
Having bought these boots I did feel a degree of trepidation, would they live up to my expectations? I needn't have worried, customer service was spot on and when they arrived they were beautifully presented. They looked a pair of quality boots and were very comfortable and well fitting the first time I put them on. I love them, they are warm, very very comfortable and high quality, I have now bought boot trees for them and am happy that when they do start to show signs of wear I can get them refurbished. In short they look good, are very well made and are extremely comfortable from the moment you first wear them, not cheap but ooze quality.
If you are looking for a distinctive, warm and incredibly comfortable boot that you can wear all day everyday then I can’t recommend these boots enough.
Visiting london last december to visit family. Stupidly was wearing chuck taylor sneakers. Feet killing me after 45 mins. Just happened to pass by a Cheaney shop - and these were in the window. Gorgeous. Shearling lined. Dainite sole. Pebble grain finish. Storm welts. I wore them out the shop and walked all day (13 miles) around London. Feet super comfortable. I live in USA where these have the added bonus of being super rare. cannot recommend highly enough.
I agree with those who've said that these are a wee bit tight and tighter than my Scott in almond grain. However I think it's the leather which will mould to the foot with wear. The leather quality is superb, the look of the boot is fabulous and the build quality is up there with the best and I love the fact that the shearling lining is throughout and not just lining the shafts.
Got these nearly a couple of years ago. I read the review that referred to the fit not being right. My experience was that they felt snug, due to the fleece lining (which is fantastic). The boot is tough as, well, in this case a new boot. I don’t think I’ve worn a shoe or boot as much as this one. Even when the weather’s probably been inappropriate I’ve carried on wearing them, just because over time they’ve become the most comfortable things I can put on my feet.I sent them off for refurbishment after nearly two years of pounding and asked for a commando sole this time. I’ve just got them back and the refurbishment is immaculate. The fur lining (which had been flattened down and worn out in places) has been replaced with new. The boot has been fed and polished and they’re now better than new. Better because the leather has softened and moulded to my feet and everything that was worn out has been replaced.I’ve never been happier with a boot or shoe.Cost per wear in my case means the best value item of clothing or footwear I’ve ever had.I’ve every reason to suppose these will last for decades.
Happy customer...having worn my new boots out a few times now, I would say the fit and comfort is no different to any other new pair of leather shoe/boot - in that they'll soften in time. I would agree with the other review, they are a tighter fit than my other Cheaney boots (Hurricane R), but I think this is as much to do with the fur lining, which I hesitate to say will flatten down in time. The style of these boots are great, I'd been surfing the internet for months looking at alternatives, and I struggled to find any other boot which had that 'je ne sais quoi' which I was looking for. These are perfect. The quality thus far looks great, hope to be walking around in these for the next 20+ years!
I bought these boots 3 weeks ago and they dont quite fit properly. They are too tight across the top of the foot, which is the last thing you want from heavy boots. I have only worn them indoors and already the stitching has started to come away on the front of the right shoe. These are very expensive boots, so the stitching is more disappointing than the fit across the top of the foot. I will be returning them to the store.
