First of all, what's not to love?  Purple boots made by a great footwear company...They seem really well-made and feel very comfortable.  They are a bit tight in the calf when I first put them on, but they loosen up a bit as I wear them and the leather warms up.  I have always had a bit of touble with calves being tight on boots, so this isn't a problem specific to these boots.  They do have an elastic gusset that stretches, as well.  I really like these boots!
