Beautiful boot and a great deal. I purchased on sale for 29.99 and they are 90 bucks at Macys! I found they ran a half size too big. My regular size 8 was too big and I knew the real leather would stretch a bit so the 7.5, though the tiniest bit small, will be fine after a couple of wears. I should also add that my calves are tiny. 14 inch shaft is way too large for me and these fit pretty good. Not ideal, but for the price, I'll take'em!
