It looks like about a 50/50 split between positive and VERY negative reviews, so I thought I'd weigh in.  I got these boots for $50, so the bargain is almost impossible to beat.  The color of the leather is consistent and even on both boots, and both match perfectly.  I saw some reviews indicating that several people didn't find that to be the case.  That's a real shame. I hope those buyers sent them back to the manufacturer, and I hope our boy Steve was happy to replace them.

They are a little more orangey/reddish than they are brown, and I'll admit, I was hoping for a deep, rich brown color.  But again...at $50, how can I complain?  The heel height and overall fit are VERY comfortable.  I even have full calves, and they fit over them just fine. They're going to look great under jeans, cords and skirts.  No regrets here whatsoever.  I'll be keeping my eyes open for the perfect dark brown boots, but these -- while they weren't precisely what I expected -- also are by no means a disappointment.
