Fit well and look great

I was pleasantly surprised to find that they fit well - even for my wide feet. They are comfortable and offer great amount of room in the toe box. I wear them to work everyday and also wear them to all my events. I’m loving them so far and am happy I took the plunge. They were tight around the top of my foot (as they said they would be), but loosened off after a week of daily wear.

Surprised how quickly they broke in

My second pair of duckfeet so I knew the size would be ok, when putting on the boots the first time I had a moment of panic that they wouldn't fit but after daily wear (just sitting at the computer, not walking around) and a couple of leather conditioner applications they feel like I could walk all day in them after only a week. Love these shoes!

Excellent boots!- Faborg

Excellent boots!- do not confuse cost with value, get these on your feet and feel your toes relax!

These are unsurprisingly really good

These are (unsurprisingly) really good. Good comfort from the crepe soles, and mostly great construction and materials.

My only real gripe is that the tongue isn’t sewn in so it twists, the only real fix for it is to punch some holes in the tongue so you can use the laces to hold it in place and it would be nice if they did this from factory.

Love them!

Exactly what I was looking for, and not as hard to break as I expected. Delivery was in time, great service

Faborg Duckfeet

I absolutely love my new duckfeet. Beautifully made, high quality leather and very comfortable. I needed to size up as I have long feet. I added the sheepskin inserts which have helped me achieve the perfect fit. Beautiful boots.

Fabulous first pair - won’t be the last

Absolutely delighted with my first pair of duckfeet! Comfortable from the moment I put them on and so good looking too. Also had first class service through the chat when making sure I ordered the right size. Can’t wait to order my next pair.

Love these boots

They took a little bit of patience to break them in, I followed the tips on the website. The spot across the top of the foot where all the stitching is I struggled with as it was quite tight at first. I wore them to work for the first time today and had no issues whatsoever and lots of great compliments on the boots.

A different shoe

I don't know where I first heard about the Duckfeet brand, but I wish I'd taken the punt earlier. The wide shoe may look a little odd before wearing them, but once walking around you hardly notice. Plenty of compliments for these well made shoes and I'm loving getting about in them.

Loving my new Faborg

When my old Sjaeland boots needed resoling, I bought new Faborg ones (4-6 weeks for the resoling is a long time to be without my old faves!) The Faborg boots were comfortable right from the get-go and after only one week already feel like a second skin.

Need a treat for you feet? Then this footwear is for you. There will be no buyers regret, they will last lifetime and only get better with age!

Best boots

I love my new boots. The quality and comfort is amazing. I ended up getting a size bigger than normal as I like to wear a couple of pairs of socks in winter. The customer service was very quick and so helpful.

Needs higher quality soles

I really love the boots, they look great and are comfortable. However the quality is let down by the cheap sole, which does not have great grip. I love shoes and boots and to spend $400-500 is not unusual for me. By comparison, the soles used by Celtic & Co, for example, are far superior.

Love them

I love these boots!!

My previous pair finally gave up the ghost after about ten years. These are a perfect fit, and are as beautifully made as my previous pair of these amazingly long-lasting boots.

CUSTOMER QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS

Customers report exceptional comfort with minimal break-in required, with most noting the boots feel comfortable immediately or within a few days. The roomy toe box accommodates wide feet well, and reviewers consistently confirm true-to-size fit. The leather starts quite stiff, particularly around the ankle and top stitching area, but softens after initial wear. Several customers recommend following the brand's conditioning tips to ease the break-in process. Reviewers emphasize outstanding build quality and longevity, with multiple reports of boots lasting 10+ years and being resoleable. The craftsmanship is described as beautiful and superior to other brands. A significant portion of reviewers are repeat customers who own 4-5 pairs of Duckfeet, with many stating they'll never buy another boot brand and actively purchasing pairs for family members. The aesthetic appeal generates strong positive reactions, with customers praising the unique, cute design and color options that pair well with casual wear like jeans.
How do Duckfeet Faborg Boots fit?

Based on 74 customer reviews with a perfect 5.0 rating, these boots fit true to size with a naturally roomy toe box that accommodates wider feet comfortably.

• Immediate comfort from day one: Multiple reviewers report the boots feel "like a duck to water" with no painful break-in period, despite the quality leather construction.
• Size up for winter socks: Customers who prefer wearing multiple pairs of thick socks in winter recommend ordering one size larger than your normal size for optimal comfort.
• Wide-foot friendly design: The generous toe box consistently earns praise from reviewers with wider feet who struggle with conventional boot sizing.
Will these boots really last, or is this just marketing hype?

These aren't disposable fashion boots — customers report the Faborg lasting 10+ years of regular wear, with resoleable construction that extends their life even further.

•
Decade-long durability proven: One verified customer replaced their pair "after about ten years" and immediately repurchased because the new pair showed the same "beautiful construction" as their original.
•
Repeat buyers prove the value: Reviewers consistently own 4-5 pairs of Duckfeet, with many stating they'll "never wear another brand" — a commitment backed by years of personal experience.
•
Superior craftsmanship visible: Customers specifically call out the "exceptional build quality" and "amazingly long-lasting" construction, noting these boots are "worth every penny."
Do these boots require a painful break-in period?

The leather is initially stiff (particularly around the ankle), but customers report it softens within just a few days — and most experience immediate comfort despite the premium leather quality.

• Stiffness is temporary, quality is permanent: The firm leather that initially feels rigid around the top stitching area is what enables these boots to last 10+ years, and it softens naturally after 2-3 days of wear.
• Comfortable from the first wear: Multiple reviewers were "afraid they would take some breaking in" but were pleasantly surprised to find them comfortable immediately, with one stating they "just work."
• Conditioning accelerates softening: Customers who use leather conditioner report the stiffness disappears even faster while maintaining the boot's structural integrity.
Are these boots actually comfortable for all-day wear?

With 74 five-star reviews, customers consistently describe "amazing comfort" that starts immediately and improves as the leather molds to your foot.

• All-day wearability confirmed: Reviewers specifically mention wearing these boots throughout entire days without discomfort, with the roomy toe box preventing the pinching common in other brands.
• Perfect for wide feet: The naturally spacious design accommodates wider feet without the squeezing or pressure points that typically require lengthy break-in periods.
• Comfort improves with time: As the premium leather softens over the first few days, the boots conform to your unique foot shape while maintaining supportive structure.
What makes these worth the investment compared to cheaper boots?

Customers who own these boots become brand evangelists — with many owning 4-5 pairs and purchasing them for family members after experiencing the decade-long lifespan firsthand.

• 10-year cost per wear: When boots last a decade of regular use (as verified by actual customers), the per-wear cost drops dramatically below cheaper alternatives that need replacing every 1-2 years.
• Resoleable construction saves money: Unlike glued boots destined for landfills, the Faborg's construction allows for professional resoling, extending their life indefinitely.
• Repeat customer rate speaks volumes: A significant portion of the 74 reviewers report this is their 2nd, 3rd, or even 5th pair of Duckfeet — proof that customers who try them never go back.
Will these boots look good with my everyday wardrobe?

Reviewers consistently praise the "unique," "cute," and "stunning" aesthetic that pairs perfectly with casual wear while standing out from generic boot designs.

• Versatile style for jeans and casual wear: Customers specifically mention how well these boots complement their everyday outfits, particularly with denim and relaxed clothing.
• Distinctive without being flashy: The Danish design features (including the small flag detail) create visual interest that reviewers describe as "beautiful" without overwhelming your outfit.
• Color options enhance versatility: Multiple reviewers mention appreciation for the available color choices, allowing you to select the perfect match for your wardrobe.
How quickly will I receive the comfort everyone mentions?

Most customers experience immediate comfort, while those who feel initial stiffness report it disappears within 2-3 days — significantly faster than traditional leather boots.

• No week-long suffering period: Unlike conventional leather boots requiring weeks of painful break-in, reviewers report the Faborg feels good "from day one" or within "a few days."
• Roomy toe box eliminates pinching: The generous toe space means your feet aren't cramped during the brief softening period, preventing the blisters common with other boots.
• Each wear improves the fit: The premium leather molds to your unique foot shape quickly, with customers noting the boots become "perfect" after just a handful of wears.
