Ordered the boots late Saturday got them the following Friday. I was so excited to get them! I love boots!
These are a gray color even though it says black. Picture is spot on. These boots are rockin'.

I bought an 8.5 based on other reviews. I am happy with them. I have the Zerge Madden Girl Boots size 9 in cognac and they are just a bit too roomy (very comfy though). Glad I sized down half a size on these.

There is a bit of extra room for me in the calf area but that is okay. My calves are 14 inches around if that helps anyone. The buckles at the top can be tightened but not much. I don't really want them to be skin tight. These boots make my calves look really shapely. They are a bit shorter than my Zerge boots which is a plus, those are right in the back of my knee. These are pretty perfect.

Very happy with the structure, color, shipping, and sizing of this boot. If my opinion changes I will edit my review.

Hope that doesn't happen!
