I was looking for high quality boots that would feel comfortable and last me at least five years. I haven't broken in these boots yet, but right now they feel very uncomfortable. The top of the boot is very slouchy and not tight at all, so if you're looking for a boot that will wrap tightly around your legs, this isn't it. By sloucy, I mean that the sides of the boot will kind of bend halfway, especially while you walk. This is one of the reasons why it's so uncomfortable for me.

The boots, as expected, have a VERY strong leather smell. I've had it for months and it still smells strange.

If the boots were around $50, it'd be more reasonable. But $200 for these shoes... definitely NOT worth it. I bought these boots for the Amazon price, so I'm kind of dissatisfied. I really wish that instead of choosing to keep them, I would have returned these boots =[. But alas. Don't make the same mistake I did! The same price tag for these boots can buy you at least two pairs on another site, such as Shoedazzle, with the same design and without the weird funky leather smell.

If you are looking for real leather quality boots, these boots might be worth it, but otherwise /: you're better off looking somewhere else.
