I always purchase boots in the summer because you can get some great steals on some pricey boots.  I purchased three pairs of boots and this particular boot was the one I was on the fence on.  They didn't look like anything special but because I love the brand I thought I would give them a try.  I received them in the mail today and I could not be happier.  They leather is soft and supple, the color is gorgeous and the fit is absolutely perfect.  I walked around in them in my home and they are super comfortable.  When the price goes back down I am snatching up the black pair as well.
