I was all over the place trying to decide if I was going to bite the bullet and buy these boots. Oh My Gosh! I LOVE them! I didn't even have the box lid off and I could already smell the leather. They feel amazing!! There is adequate cushion in the sole and the scalloped edges are a beautiful touch. I guess I would consider myself petite, so I loved that the shaft was somewhat narrow. However, they were a cinch to get on and off. I was so pleased since I usually have the problem of looking like I'm wearing galoshes because they look so big around my calf. I cannot wait to wear them with a pair of shorts or a skirt for summer and then with my favorite skinny jeans once the weather cools! Glad that I snagged these when I did because I am going to wear the heck out of these boots!!!
