These boots are amazing! I live in Cleveland and am a few months into winter now and these boots have been the best! Inches and inches of snow, and I feel nothing. The bottom has great traction and I haven't slipped or fell once yet, so it's a record for me so far! The style is sleek and even in my size 11 I don't feel like I can't wear them to work etc. for fear of being too bulky looking. And I love that I can just slip them on without zipping anything up. I love these boots!
