Don't get me wrong, these boots are really cute, but a few things really bothered me.  The shaft is really wide as others have stated.  I didn't think this would be a problem with my muscular calves, but they're even loose on me.  Secondly, the bone color is not as it appears online. Tt's more of a brownish color which I was bummed about as I wanted a pair of winter white boots.  The last straw was the quality of the material.  There is no way you'd ever mistake these boots for real leather.  Amazon has great deals on real leather boots.  So, these are going back and I'll continue trolling Amazon till I find my perfect boot.
