style: i liked it enough in the pic's and enough in real life.  a bit thin / dainty all around for me in the end.  white stiches on black leather looked good on the sole.  good looking boot overall.

construction: laces that come with the boot are too short to tie all the way to the top, though i wouldn't want to lace them all the way up anyway.  felt sturdy, but leather is thin and the boot is very light.  the sole is what ultimately drove my decision - just too thin.  i feel like a boot needs a good wide, thickish base.  this sole is just about wide enough, but way to thin.  i would put on a better sole myself, but i couldn't justify it with a new pair of shoes.

fit: true to length, but the "D" size for my completely normal / standard / medium width foot was too tight.  i've never had a wide size shoe in my life and would need such a size for this boot.

sent them right back for a refund.
