These boots are amazing! I have super skinny calves and have been looking FOREVER for a pair that didn't make me look like I was wearing leather rain boots. The fit in these is great. There's still enough room for skinny jeans, but I'm not swimming in them. The leather is good quality and the buckle detail is not obnoxious. These are a bit rugged, but have a classic riding boot look to them that will work well for years to come. The grey is actually black, the only grey I found was on the inside. And the leather has a lovely pebbly look, but is still thick enough to stay up and not slouch. If you have narrow feet (and I do) you'll love them, but I can see how someone with wider feet might have trouble with these. Order half a size down, as they do run big.
