My wife was very excited to get these boots. They were the perfect length for her foot, and they are very nice looking. The problem was the actual shoe part of the boot is extremely wide from top to bottom, meaning if you have thin legs/feet, there will be a giant gap that looks very awkward once the boot is laced up. if the whole thing was flimsy from top to bottom, this wouldn't be a problem, but the part where the foot goes is solid and cannot be adjusted, so when the upper part is drawn in the shoe poofs out. It's hard to explain but it basically means if you have skinny legs/feet this will not look good on you. We shipped them back and the company gave us a full refund so we were only out the shipping costs which we were satisfied with. It would have been sooo nice if they had fit her right though...
