This boot is really beautiful and classy looking, while not being a high heeled boot (and a non-skid bottom) which attracted me.  Combine that with Clarks reputation, other customer reviews and it being on sale and that was it, I was sold and purchased them.

Unfortunately, I had a rough winter and was sick several times, so the boots remained boxed and unworn for a couple of months.  I did initially try them on very quickly to make sure they fit when I received them. They fit my size 7 foot a very, tiny bit loosely with knee highs on and just right with a thicker sock.  But, they fit me well enough to keep and they looked great.

 When I finally wore them I thought they looked good with my outfit, they come up to just under the knee for me and were roomy enough to zip with skinny jeans tucked in.  The problem is they seem to "buckle" at the ankle on each boot.  They don't sit flat, there's a bulge or buckling of the leather/suede at each ankle.  After wearing it only a few hours it started to hurt one of my ankles where it was rubbing against.  I couldn't wait to remove them.

If I could return them I would, but it's past the time frame to return them.  What a shame since they truly are a good looking boot.

**UPDATED REVIEW 5/17/2014**
I have meant to update earlier on these boots.  When I first purchased these boots it was late in the year for boot wearing in my neck of the woods and I barely had much time wearing them.  I gave them another try this past winter and these became my all time favorite pair of boots.  I wore them constantly.  Apparently the leather that was causing the discomfort at my ankle, where it was "buckling" a bit, well all it needed was a very short break-in period.  After wearing them all day a couple of times the leather became soft and I had no discomfort.  I have recieved many compliments on these boots, including my very fashion conscious 3 year old grand daughter!  I have bumped up my review from 3 stars to 4 stars.  I can't give it 5 stars since I did have a breaking in period and some discomfort.
