Once again, MIA has made a stylish, attractive boot that is also comfortable. The leather looks very nice, but does scratch fairly easily. The color is a beautiful, neutral shade of tanned leather. Love the laceings on the back... it allows this boot to work with so many different fashion looks.

I will say that the shaft is fairly narrow. I don't have large calves, but this boot is snug on me. As well, there isn't a lot of room for getting your foot down into the shoe portion; you will need to unzip it.

I am a tad over 5'3" tall, and with the top folded down to the seam, this boot comes as high on my knee as I could wear it, without it rubbing the knee when I walk - an issue that another petite reviewer had commented on. This probably would not matter if you plan on wearing it up over the knee.

Overall, nice boot, and considering I paid half the retail price or less, it was a steal.

Love MIA! It's the most reliable brand I have found for consistent sizing, and being a great fit from one style to the next.
