I bought these boots because I wanted something that was fashionable as well as practical. These boots live up to the task of providing great comfort as well as warmth on the snow and ice all the while looking stylish and cute. They come to just under my knee (Im not that tall), and I love that once you adjust the laces to your fit you don't have to move them again but can use the zipper on the side to put them on and take them off(and the small heel on the boot gives you an extra inch and a half :P).  They are a pretty good fit, I wasn't sure what to expect so I ordered a half size bigger than I normally do which wasn't neccessary but they are great nevertheless. I am happy with them and would definately reccomend this boot to anyone who lives in the cold.
