Swing-815

Honestly I’ve wanted these shoes for YEARS. So, when I finally got them irl, I freaked out cuz of how beautiful they looked. I added a pair of insoles into em, and they are quite comfortable. I’m a true size nine with wide feet, so I got the ten. I’m not sure if I should’ve tho, cuz they’re quite loose, even after adjusting the buckles. My calves measure 15 1/2 inches or so, and they just BARELY fit them. I can even wear thick leggings with these, but I’m not gonna push any further cuz it is quite tricky zipping them up.

Now onto the cons. The shoes out of the box came with TONS of imperfections. Like scratched buckles, a ripped piece of leather, loose thread and a stain on the edge of the sole. Not to mention the fact that the boot is starting to separate from the platform, though I did know that would happen. For the amount of money I paid for them, it’s incredibly irritating tbh, so I’ve just made the decision to never buy another pair of Demonias near full price again. The quality control is subpar. In terms of walking, I have no idea how others have said these are comfortable to walk in. They’re easy yes, and very sturdy so you won’t fall over, but walking in them feels like you’re clip-clopping with each step. The heel should’ve had a sort of slope like the Dynamite sole to mitigate this. It didn’t help that my first outdoor walking experience with these was on a college campus. I’m hoping that with time and wear, the sole is gonna be worn down into the slope shape to…

They're good but very squeaky and loud when you move them, also kinda tight since I got a 7 instead of a 8, but I got the matt black ones in the same size and those ones fit better. Buuut, the part connecting to the heel come up easy, which sucks.

I got these in on sep 15th of 2023, and forgot to review them. They're still in pretty good condition since I've only wore them a few times.

I added. New photo, and an old one when I first got them, plus the part where it's coming off.

Bought these for an upcoming cosplay. I'm super excited about wearing these boots with it. My Demonias are some of my most comfortable shoes and comfortable shoes and cosplay don't always go together.
