I was initially hesitant about buying these boots, but am quite pleased that I did. They look great with a pair of jeans or with a suit. They are quite comfortable... once I found the right size. Be advised, these boots run large. Ergo: I wear a size 10D in Rockport, Ecco and Timberland yet a size 9D in these boots. I highly recommend these HD riding (and walking, for that matter) boots!
