Are these real leather?

No. The upper is faux leather with a synthetic lining, so they are not waterproof and will not age like leather.

How do they fit compared with other combat boots?

They run close to standard US women's sizing in a medium width. If you plan to wear thick socks, consider a half size up.

Do I have to lace them every time?

No. The side zipper lets you leave the laces tied and still get them on and off.

Are they good for long walks?

They are fine for errands and casual days. The thin sole and flat heel give little arch support, so they are not a walking shoe.

What is the shaft height?

The shaft is 6 inches, so it sits above the ankle and works with jeans tucked in or left out.

How should I care for them?

Wipe the faux leather with a damp cloth and let them air dry. Avoid machine washing, which can break down the synthetic upper.

Our take on the Unionbay Women's Ginny Flat Heel Combat Boots

The Unionbay Ginny is a flat combat boot in faux leather with a 0.5-inch heel and a 6-inch shaft. It pairs a lace-up front with a side zipper, so you can tie it once and get in and out quickly. The round toe and military styling keep it casual, and the rubber outsole and synthetic lining suit everyday wear. It is a budget-friendly alternative to leather combat boots like Dr. Martens or Steve Madden's Troopa, which cost more and break in harder but last longer.
