April 9, 2010 I am glad I bought this boot. I love boots, but I really only like certain styles. Styles that mix comfort, class, funk, and height. This boot is a winner. I was only hoping they were a but more height than they are. I can deal. Really impressed how light the boots are and the clean beauty of the shape and color of the leather. If you must wear leather, at least make it nice looking. I got them in the mail, very quickly. Put them on this morning. Wore them out in the city all day....carried bags. They are great. I got the green...which is now sold out. I'm happy I like these shoes because I would like to buy more from this brand. I like their styles. Oh yeah. I read a lot about this brand running big. I love how helpful reading reviews is. Thankfully in this case it was true. The shoe runs a little big. They only had a 9 left. I generally fit more of a 9.5 or 10. I wore thin socks with these today, but the 9 fit very well with thin socks. So it seems they do run big, but I wonder if I had a 10 to try if I would like it better?? Anyway, I'm keeping these! And would like more when I get some more money!

I love these boots but it's, what, 5 months later.
I wear this boot a lot, maybe too much, because the soles on the heel are wearing through. How light the boot is, which is nice, is because the soles are hollow. I had this happen before with cheaper boots but EW!  I think these soles should last longer than this for the price...yet I still don't regret buying them, I wish they weren't breaking already. I am going to try to maybe mend or protect them but the question is WOULD I be willing to buy them again is this is all the wear I get. But DAMN these look so good with everything.
