I have purchased bearpaw boots in the past and have been well pleased with the style and quality.  I needed a pair of while boots for my collection and saw these boots and thought they looked fun and they are!  They are warm, made extremely well, and clean up easy.  They run just a little larger and I probably could have ordered a size down, but I wear socks in my boots so it hasn't made too much of a difference.  I always receive compliments when I wear them, whether I dress them up or down.  A really great purchase!
