Got these boots two days before a snowstorm, just in time.  Having worn them today in slushy wet 5" deep snow I can say that they are warm and they are waterproof.  The style is cute and looked good with jeans, but I think will look equally nice with a long winter skirt.  Two comments about the fit; I wear a 7 1/2 and they seem long in the toe box.  My feet do not slip in the heel and thick socks will be ok.  They just seem longer than most.  Second, there are snaps on both sides placed right at the ankle bone.  This snap has to be closed on the inside by the zipper and I found it is difficult to snap, but if you turn your ankle away from the snap it takes the pressure off that little bone and it snaps more easily this way.  I like them and am keeping them.
