I got a great price on these boots but they are well worth more than I paid.  The quality is excellent, love the suede and the leather band at the top and the cork at the sole.  The color is great, kind of a grayish brown but more on the brown side.  The boots look awesome over skinny jeans or leggings or inside boot cut jeans.  I can wear them with just about anything and they are SO comfortable.  I know some people have complained about the strap and button but it has not bothered me at all.  The diameter of the boot at the calf is good for me, not too tight or roomy.  I would say my calf is of average size.  I went up a half size from my normal 8.5 and they fit great.  Don't think I would want any smaller.  Heading up to Vancouver/Whistler next month and I know these will do wonderful in the snowy conditions!
