The pictures don't do these justice. I got the congnac brown and they are perfect. i had been looking around for boots of these style, and these are everything i wanted. i took away a star because they are narrow in the toe area, so the first couple of wears were uncomfortable, but they're starting to break in nicely. Also, they have no arch support and the bottoms have no traction but some arch supports and being careful walking solves that.
