I have been looking for the perfect dress boot for over a year. I always return them for one reason or another. I had never heard of Miz Mooz so I thought I would give these a try. I am glad I did, I love them. I think I found a near perfect boot at last. These are very comfy I did not need to break them in at all. I work long work hours and my feet felt great at the end of the day. I would have liked them to be about two inches taller but they still look great with skirts. They are not knee-high for sure unless you have short legs. These boots look even nicer in real life and seen to be good quality.
