Line-level (leather Trooper square-toe platform): owners describe the shoe as noticeably heavy and cumbersome for extended walking — the Hupu owner says comfort is worse than the Rhino derby, and the Shihuo owner calls the weight "very unfriendly" and says the hard outsole makes ordinary daily wear uncomfortable, suiting it more to styling than all-day use.

This is a square-toe platform boot in the Trooper style, listed with a leather upper, leather lining and insole, and a rubber outsole in sizes 39–46. Owner reports exist only for the leather Trooper line, not the Troor itself: they point to a large-running fit and a heavy, styling-first wear. Check sizing before ordering.

Pros
- · An owner of the leather Trooper square-toe line says the square toe and wide, oversized shape give strong styling presence and that the material and construction feel high-end.
- · That same line-level report notes an obvious height-boosting effect from the thick platform; the listing states a 6 cm sole.
- · The listing describes a leather upper with leather lining and insole and a rubber outsole, offered in sizes 39–46.
Cons
- · Line-level owners of the leather Trooper square-toe platform call it noticeably heavy and cumbersome for extended walking, better suited to styling than all-day use.
- · Hupu and Shihuo owners of the leather square-toe line report the fit runs about 1.5 to 2 sizes large and advise sizing down.
Fit notes
No sizing data exists for the Troor itself. Line-level reports on the leather Trooper square-toe platform say it runs large — a Hupu owner who usually wears EU 42 found a 42 about 1.5 sizes big, and a Shihuo reviewer called the fit roughly two sizes large. Both advise sizing down; apply that with caution here.
Buy if
You want a square-toe platform boot for styling and a height boost, and you can confirm measurements with the seller before shipping, since the closest line-level owner reports say the fit runs large.
Skip if
You need an all-day walking shoe, or you want independent owner feedback on this exact Troor model before ordering — buyer discussion of the Troor itself is not available, and the closest line-level reports describe heavy, cumbersome extended wear.

Buying FAQ
Common questions
Does this exact model run large?⌄
There is no buyer discussion of the Troor to confirm it. The sizing advice comes from owners of the leather Trooper square-toe line, who report the fit running about 1.5 to 2 sizes large and recommend sizing down.
How heavy is the boot in daily wear?⌄
No weight figure is given for the Troor. Owners of the leather Trooper square-toe platform describe it as noticeably heavy and cumbersome for extended walking — one calling it worse for comfort than the Rhino derby, another calling the weight very unfriendly to ordinary daily wear.
Does the hard-outsole complaint apply to this version?⌄
The owner who called the outsole hard and uncomfortable was describing a version with a hard wooden-style outsole, so that part may not carry over to the rubber outsole listed here.
What does the listing say about materials and construction?⌄
It states a leather upper, leather lining and insole, and a rubber outsole with a 6 cm-thick sole, in sizes 39–46. Those are catalog specifications, not independently verified testing.
Evidence
Public notes used
Line-level (leather Trooper square-toe silhouette): a Shihuo owner of the leather Trooper says the square toe and wide, oversized shape give strong styling presence and that the material/construction feels high-end, with an obvious height-boosting effect from the thick platform.
SourceLine-level (leather square-toe Trooper platform family, closest matching construction to this Troor boot): owners consistently report the fit runs large — a Hupu owner who normally wears EU 42 bought a 42 and still found it about 1.5 sizes too big, and a Shihuo reviewer of the leather Trooper derby says the shoe felt roughly two sizes large, so both advise sizing down rather than buying your normal size. Buyer discussion of the Troor model itself is not available, so apply this with caution.
SourceA separate Shihuo owner review of the leather Balenciaga Trooper square-toe derby says the sizing feels about two sizes large ("鞋码感觉偏大两码"), echoing the size-down advice from Hupu owners of the same leather square-toe line.
