Leather is nice, smooth and shiny but a bit stiff. Can't expect much from cheap boots. :) They look awesome and I love wearing them. However, I found that after 8 hours of intense walking, I had a slight blister on my left foot's ankle bone. Not a big deal, I overworked these shoes! :)

They are so so cute and I got tons of compliments on them. Also, having such a short shaft, they totally elongate my legs. Love them!
