I've purchased these boots for a trip to the east coast in winter, just received them. They fit like a glove, very comfortable and cozy. They are exactly what I wanted -- thermal rating -20, waterproof, suede, faux fur inside, low heel, zip easy to put on and take off, good price and quality. I like the way they look, not clunky as some other winter boots I've tried on. I shopped around a lot and finally decided on these and I love them, don't want to take them off! I think these will be great for lots of walking in the cold weather and they'll blend in much more with my outfits than the clunky brown hiking boots I was thinking of wearing. Once I actually get out in the cold and snow to road test them, I'll come back and update this review.
