I really do l like these boots. I am loyal to Timberland's brand. However these particular boots are shorter and thinner than I expected. The suede, especially is very very thin. When I grab the leather at the top of these to zip them up, little marks are left on the thin leather. I don't have a particuliarly large calf, but I've noticed that there really isn't any room to wear my pants inside of these boots. I've had them for about a week and a half now. The boots are nice looking, but so far I can only wear them with skirts/ dresses or no one will see them. Maybe I've been spoiled by the earlier versions of Timberland tall ladies boots or maybe I've gotton used to the quality of the UGGs that I've been wearing. Either way, the quality of the shaft of the boot was not what I was expecting.
