Customer Reviews
The shoes look great, the last is really classic, the sole work is beautiful and my personal favorite detail is the beveled heel, a really nice detail you typically see only @ 600€ +.
The Leather is good, not great, visible creasing but for the price I can't complain. The fit in general is okay, I have to admit I enjoy the soft insoles. My foot is 27.3cm long so I ordered a standard UK9. The fit in the ball is nice and tight, the toe area is snug but has some room. However, the heel and middle foot are way to loose in my opinion, I still have a little heel slip and the middle part is barely even touching my foot. Might be a personal thing though.
So in total a great shoe especially considering the price. But beware that even though the website states VAT included you have to pay import tax when ordering to the EU, which I did not expect.
This is my first Black Bird Shoe purchase. Have couple of Allen Edmonds. Was worried about size since the size was not available on their online ordering platform, but the shoe turned out to be perfect fit & very well made. Will buy another one sometime soon !
I have had these shoes for over a year now, and can attest to their amazing comfort and durability. I work at a job that requires me to be on my feet all day, and I wore these every weekday with no other shoes in my rotation, and they have held up fantastically! Very happy with purchase. It is one on 3 pairs or BLKBRDS i own, and each is as amazing as the next.
Beautiful last shape and finish. Fits like glove. Happy with the purchase. Overall enjoying experience.
As usual, fantastic shoes
