The is my 2nd style of Mea Shadow & this brand is #1 in my books. So well made & such superior leather & style. The suede has such fine nap & the toe & heel have been polished to look worn - very nice detail. The leather straps are gorgeous. Nice height for skirts or tights & skinny pants. The inside finishing is where Mea distinguishes itself. Fully padded & reinforced.  They are like walking on pillows. And the heels & toes are all reinforced to not crush from wear. The boots are luxurious & comfortable.  I feel rich wearing them. Will suit dressy & casual looks. The straps come un-done where the dark silver "buttons" are & the straps are also riveted to the boot in the front to keep them from drooping.  These boots are so well designed & made!  You'll be very grateful!!!!  I am looking forward to buying more & more Meas!  I'd like to give more than 5 stars to this brand.
