I love these boots! They are toasty warm and soft. The minute I put them on it was an "aaaahhhh moment".  My feet are cranky and most shoes are terribly uncomfortable. Doesn't matter if it's boots, running shoes, heels etc. So I have to be particular or I have wasted my money once I wear them and at that point can not send them back.

Now for the practical, they are NOT boots to be worn in the rain and in snow. These are for dead of winter warmth. They will keep your feet and up your calves warm. Where they will meet on your leg will depend on your height. I'm 5'1 and they come up to 6 inches below my knee cap. (I measured :0) ) The toe bed is plenty wide and does not come even close to irritating the bunion.  I can wear thick socks if I'd like and still be comfortable.  And now for the best part......they are a beautiful , just beautiful boot. I love that they are not like anything I see anybody else wearing. The beading is bright and really pretty. I love the sassy tassel on the side of the boot. Let's just get to it.....I feel Kool when I'm wearing this boot.  Compliments galore whenever I wear them.  If you are considering these....order them! You will not be sorry.
