This really is a steal to find a leather boot at this price point! It's not top notch quality but its pretty darn good! Style
Gets 5 stars for sure I got the brown with cognac accents and am pleased. This is a deal all the way around great color, very fashionable and comfortable. I feel it runs kind of big I find most boots fit me loose in the shaft area and these were no exception. The foot bed also had a little extra room in my normal size 8. I exchanged for a half size down so hopefully that will snug it up a bit. Either way I will keep the 7 1/2 b/c you are lucky to get low quality synthetic material at this price and the style really is unique and in right now and simply they are sooooo worth it! If u get the sizing right these are keepers for sure!

Received the 7 1/2 and as I suspected they fit much better and are more snug. They are a bit difficult the first couple times to squeeze your foot into the actual shoe area as the ankle area is snug as another reviewer mentioned but it  got easier as I put them on a couple times. The size 7 1/2 fit much better still a little loose in the shaft area but not sloppy like the size 8 was.
