I do not like the heel of the boot. The toe/instep portion of the boot is made out of this non-slip material which I LOVE however, for some reason they decided to add a heel in the back and that tiny heel is quite slippery and that kind of ruins it for me because I will now have to take these to the shoe repair and have that slippery heel replaced for one that is non-slip. Other than that, great boot, VERY comfortable and I was able to get it on sale with super saver free shipping--THANKS AGAIN AMAZON.COM!!

12/21/11 UPDATE: these boots were sent with a stain on them, the stain was in a place where I did not notice the first time I tried them on and I was already wearing them out in the street when I noticed the stain. This does not change my views on White Mountain boots, super cute and comfortable AND at a great price (I got them when they were on sale). Anyway, CAREFULLY INSPECT the boots once you receive them!!!
