These are very comfortable and feel very well made. They don't have a lot of arch support, but I have big arches and was not uncomfortable. You can also add arch support. They are big in the calf, but I don't think it makes them look bad. If you are looking for something to hug your leg closely, these are not for you. If you are looking for boots you can fit your pants into without a huge hassel, these should do the trick.
