I originally bought the black pair, liked them so much that I also got the distressed pair.
They work perfect with skinny jeans, with or without big socks or leg warmers.
I liked also that the black pair were matte & the distressed pair weren't cheap looking which can happen when they do that process.
They are comfortable with a wide foot bed and seem to be the stated size. I wear an 8 and I got an eight and it was fine.
I'd highly recommend these for a fun & economical pair of boots!
