I've just gone through my second winter with these boots and they're still wonderful!  the leather gets softer and softer, the fit gets more custom and the compliments keep on coming.  Everyone is looking for a basic pair of black, flat, over the knee leather boots and THESE are it! for an affordable price, you are getting it all.  These are great with jeans, leggings, shorts, pulled up over the knee, slouched down below the knee and folded over.  They are a wonderful staple pair of boots to any wardrobe.
