I ordered two pairs - the "bordo" (red) and the grey. I ended up returning the grey and keeping the red. Here's my reasoning:

The style itself is nice. It's real leather, and the rubber soles are practical. The shape of the boot is also flattering. The leather itself starts out a little bit stiff, but after just a bit of working it with my hands (bending it a little, etc.), I could feel the leather already loosening up. I'm confident it will get more supple as I continue to wear them.

The reviews before me are correct - there is a weird gap at the opening due to the folded leather that they use for the elasticized back. I already have large calves, and the folded leather creates a swashbuckling effect. Not sexay.

That said, I kept the red boots because they still look really good with jeans tucked in. The gap doesn't look good when wearing tights and bare legs, though. I had planned on wearing the grey with skirts and dresses, but that just wasn't flattering at all. The red, however, I had planned to wear with jeans, and they worked out very well for that purpose.

The zippers felt a little flimsy, so we'll see how much staying power they have until I have to have them replaced.

Note re: colors - The grey boots have a contrasting topstitch that's an oatmeal-ish color. The grey is also REALLY dark, so they looked more like black than grey. The red is also really dark (even darker than the picture), but I liked that color even more.
