Was very excited for these boots, but unfortunately, they were too tight on my calves. I was able to get them up my legs, but there was no way I'd be able to get my skinniest jeans in them. They also bunched up near the ankle. I don't have skinny calves, but I feel they are a little to the right of average/athletic. The color is great (taupe) and I loved the style and quality, but I am returning them.
