Even though their not made of real leather, these boots are really cool and surisingly ckmfortable. I was surisped when I opened them to see just how well these things were made and how nice they looked! Exactly what I needed. I bought them for a Costume to wear to Comicon, and will post pics with it later on after Ive worn the boots for awhile and not just to the store and back lol. With Sandles and flip flops I usually wear 7 1/2 and my Chuck Taylors are 8s. So when I used the size chart and the sizing test, it basically said I would need an 8. NO! Their 8 s feel more like 7 1/2 it was very snug on my feet, so I had to reorder an 8 1/2 and Im hoping itll be big enough that all that walking at Comicom won't give me blisters lol so for the sizing Im just gonna take away a star.
