I have big feet. There, I said it. I have a hard time finding quality, affordable shoes. I love these boots. I got the black ones to go with everything. The foot fits exactly to size (12 W). THere is a heel, but it is thick and comfortable.
They are described as fitting as larger calf. I am tall so boots don't always hit my calf in the right place. I do need a larger calf boot. These were tight in the calf. They have an elastic gusset and I hate to fuss with an item return, so I stretched and worked with it and even though they are a little hard to zip up over my calf, once they are zipped, they are comfy. If they were a wee bit bigger in the calf, I would have give 5 (or 10!) stars.
