These boots are cute and comfortable, and after spraying rain/water proofing substance on it (can get a can at Payless) it was able to carry me through a very wet rainy day with some minimal wetness at the heel, which was surprising to me.  One of the reasons I gave it 4 stars instead of 5 is because the leather isn't of the best quality and the sole is kind of thin.  But I was happy that it kept my feet dry throughout most of a long day and stayed in good shape.  That's what I look for in a pair of everyday shoes.  Of course I won't venture out much often with these on if I know it will rain, but at least I know that if it does, my feet will stay dry.  Fashion-wise they look good with anything, especially skinny jeans because the opening isn't exactly ankle tight.  Straight-leg jeans will not fit will because the material will be hard to insert around the ankle area.
