Although these boots turned out to be too short for my foot and my toes biumped against the end of the shoe, meaning that unfortunately t just can't wear them,  I'm still  going to give them 4 stars.  These are the only low-cost yet gorgeous and funky snow boots on all of amazon---- so if you can order a half size up, I would urge you to get them!  They look just like the photo--- which I fell in love with.  I am SOOOO disappointed that I can't walk out tomorrow in the new fallen snow here in Vermont in these sensational boots. . . . but someone with a smaller foot (I am an 8.5 normally, but really need a 9 in China-made shoes & boots) would not have that problem.
