They feel pretty good but run a little small so I had to return to size up

My daughter has a closet full of Demonia shoe's. We have been buying them for her since she was 15! So its seemed fitting that one of her 18th birthday presents be another pair of Demonia's. This time we went for the Riot-14 and of course we were NOT disappointed. I know they are intended for guys but she hates Doc Martin's and wanted a pair of combats. These boots are super cute for girls too. She wears hers with skirts, shorts and just about anything. We love how you offer the size chart from guys to gals! The big surprise was these boots was that they are steel toed and you can't even tell they are. The reason we found out is becasue my daughter was at a skatepark and she hit her toe on a metal pole and her boot toe never collapsed and her toes didn't get hurt! She said she can't fell the steel toes at all! The only thing I would say is if you buy these boots, make sure to also get a tall sock for calf comfort. All in all another home run for Demonia! We will always be a fan of your shoes due to the well made, original, and just plain badass design 🥰! I wish you offered your boots in a extrawide calf becasue I want to buy some for myself but the calf sizes aren't wide enough 😢 so I have to live vicariously through my daughter! Please consider offering extra wide calf on all your over the knee/thigh high boots.

I've owned several pairs of your boots and I love them

Bought to go see MCR, these boots are wildly comfortable before being broken in and construction quality is second to none.

They feel a half size too big, but they're pretty cool

I'm old. I was rocking these kinds of boots back in the early 80s. My kid wanted a pair of boots so I did some research and figured out that Demonia Cult Riot boots were the best "combat boots" available. I bought Riot 10s for my kid. I was very impressed with the quality, they have worn in well, and my kid loves them. Now that I find myself going to shows again (my other kid's band, Slugface. They rock, check them out!) I decided I needed some fresh boots so I don't look so dorky when find myself in the pit, or hanging out backstage. I got Riot 14s for myself, cuz everyone wears 10s. Who wants to be like everyone else? NOT ME! I am actually a size 10.5 but they only come in whole sizes so I went up, cuz small boots suck. Still, they seem a little bigger than other size 11s, but that's what thick socks are for! The steel toes are roomy and do not chafe or otherwise bother my toes (If you wear steel toes, you know this is a real problem with about 50% of the boots out there.) The stitching and zippers are top-notch! These boots are well-made and breaking in nicely.

Happy with purchase. Fits just right and well made.

I've seen this company around for a few years but never ordered from them until now. I ordered the riot 14 steel toed combat boots. I was very pleasantly surprised when I got them, they are very well made with good quality leather very comfortable. I do believe they will last a good long while. After a good break in and with some insoles added these will be great for everyday. I intend to order a second pair as backup.

I had been looking for the perfect pair of boots for when I play shows, and the Riot-14 are just that. Highly recommended for anyone looking for some kick-*** footwear.

Excellent boots, comfortable perfect exactly what I wanted

I absolutely love these boots!!! Runs true to size. Break them in before wearing out anywhere.

Great all around boot. Well made, durable, and is presentable in public. Also the boot holds up to scuffing exceptionally well.

Boots are not only a fashion thing for me but they also make me feel safer on walks by myself. These took a couple of weeks to wear in. Silicone heel cups saved me from blisters, those and large bandaids. These are great quality, I love the look, and should last a good long time by the look of them.

These boots are definitely more simple in terms of design but I feel like they improve my wardrobe significantly

But they still fit great! The toe is nice and tough, but spacious. Despite ordering a size over they don't feel loose and the length is just right!

The first time getting the boots they where faulty returned them. The second time I ordered the wrong size.. third time they were the greatest...Demoia has the best costumer service I have ever seen... I wish more companies were like this...

They're great!! Just as I expected. High quality at a decent price. Broken in in about a few days. Will definitely order from Demonia again!! The zipper on the side is clutch. Sometimes lacing up boots can be a hassle but with the zipper it's no problem at all. 5 stars.

i took a risk getting these for my boyfriend and he loved them! he doesnt dress edgy, just has a dark casual style and these add a nice pop of something different than his everyday black vans. when he put them on it seemed like he got 100% more attractive and actually tried with his fit. they look like big clown boots when u take them out of the box but dont let that discourage you; they are normal proportion once you put them on. give em a chance! you won’t be disappointed ☺️

These are my absolute favorite boots EVER!!!!! It didn’t take me long to break them in either. I would recommend just wearing thick socks.
