I bought these boots from another source & returned them the next day.  They are very skinny through the ankle. Even with a zipper (at the ankle) they are difficult to get on & off.  I bought them 1/2 size larger or I probably wouldn't have been able to get them on or off.  They are very tall.  I'm 5'2" & they hit right below my knee cap.  They also turn up at the toes (a lot).  I looked like a short elf in Mom's boots.  I'm not a fan of the turned up toes.  I have a pair of Old Gringo Grace with the snip toe that I adore.
