The boots did exactly what I wanted them to do - complete my super hero outfit.  The look great and had several comments on them.  They are not daily wearers, though.

Only downside was on my end.  After reading reviews I ordered one size larger due to several comments made about the boots running small in the calf.  Buy what fits you and don't lean on the reviews about boots running small.  They are entirely too big and I had to fold them down at the top just so they wouldn't look ridiculous.  Also had to put on 3 pairs of socks, just to get them to not slide all over the place.  I should have bought the right size boot for me.  Usually the reviews are right on about things, especially when you spot a trend.  However, these reviews were way off.
