Much like another reviewer, I was pleased with the color choice (purple FTW) and the name (I just moved to Chicago). I love how easy they are to get on (and off), and they're not super high or bulky, so jeans fit over them in most cases. They seem pretty warm so far. I normally wear an 8 1/2 and I ordered the 9. I have narrow feet, so I slide around in them a little, but it's not a discomfort. Haven't slipped and fallen yet so that's a plus. Someone else had suggested this brand, and while I haven't had them before and haven't had these for long, I have high hopes for the quality.
