Well, ok, funny story. I was so disappointed when I put one of the boots on and walked around for a while. They were tight through the ankle and pinched.

But I'd bought them to wear with an outfit for an interview and I didn't have a choice. So, I put the other boot on and it was comfortable.

Once I took the clear plastic piece out of the first boot it was comfortable too.

I wore them all day, walked all over the city no rubbing, no blisters, no rubbing. They're gorgeous. They're comfortable.

Just remove all the packing materials.
