The pattern and cut for this boot is completely wrong.  I was concerned when I excitedly took them out of the box and noticed the unusual shape of the sole.  It was too wide at the heel and then too boxy toward the toes -- barely foot shaped at all.  Trying them on confirmed the ineptness of the design -- wrong proportions.  The instep was snug and buckled oddly, and across the width it was a bit tight, then too wide around the toes. (They were too snug in the calves too, but I have had that problem with other boots on occasion.) I haven't seen a shoe this badly designed in terms of the basic shape since for decades, and those were 3 dollar plastic shoes. But this is not coming from Kazakhstan, the company is Canadian!
I am heartbroken because I fell in love with these after I first saw them in a store window a few weeks ago.  I then had to search high and low for the color I wanted in my size (Amazon didn't have it, unfortunately), and finally found it.  I still love everything about the way they look, but they are not $20 boots, they were expensive!  They are going back.
