I had low expectations for these boots. My calves are gigantic since I've been a waitress for 10 years. I ordered a size up in fear the calves wouldn't fit. They are a touch too big since I ordered a size up, but that means more room for thick socks!

When I was putting them on, one of the front panels ripped. Looking at it, the panel was only held on with fairly weak thread. That part is mostly for looks so I'm not even mad about it. Since it ripped on a seam I can easily fix it.

There are pockets on the sides of both boots. They are just large enough for my HTC U11 phone. They also have little slots for cards and cash. So handy since most girl clothes don't have pockets.

There are no heels! That's a plus for me as I am pretty tall and intend to wear these on a camping trip. They are padded inside and keep your feet and calves nice and toasty. I am so excited to live in these shoes for 4 days. Will update my review after I get back.
