I checked emu boots in stores that carry them in the local mall.  I was very impressed with the quality and compared the price with Ugg Boots and decided to purchase the mermaid emu boots on Amazon.  My AWESOME man bought me Ugg Boots for my birthday:)  Once the emu mermaid boots arrived I was excited to have two pairs of SUPER cool boots.  OMWORD!!!! These boots are AWFUL! the fur is so cheap, I went down a size as suggested and they were still huge!  There was fur everywhere!  I tried to give them away and NO-ONE wanted them! I had to pay to ship them back! These are a true testiment of you get what you pay for! EWWWWWWW
