I really like these boots- I have them for about a month now and I got them so that I could have something cute and quick and warm to just pull on over my skinny jeans.  I live in northern MN and for instance, today it's -28 and these boots can pull their own!!  They have nice traction and keep my feet nice and warm, and my feet are always on the cold side.  They have worn well so far, being in salt and slush and on ice- for the price, they are pretty great!  They look super cute and fit like a glove, I wear an 8.5 and that is what I ordered and they were right on size.  I put suede protectant on them and that seems to be working well, too.  I would not hold back from ordering these!
