I've purchased other madden girl boots and been happy with all of them so far! These aren't top of the line, but for the look and price, I'd say they are well worth it! I found that amazon had the best price for these particular boots. I ordered my usual size, 7.5, after reading other reviews that they run true to size, and I agree that they do. Other madden girl boots like the zandora seem to run big. They slip on easily, and my calves are not super skinny. Love them with tights! Probably my favorite part has been how comfy they are...it feels like I'm not even wearing shoes! I bought them in gray and really love the color.
