I was a little skeptic about buying these because they're not necessarily my style; however, I decided to purchase them since I'm trying to change it up a bit. I was actually delightfully surprised when I tried them on. They fit my calf and actually 'fit' my existing style more than I thought they would (yet, still a little 'wild' for me). It didn't take any time at all to break them in. I got a lot of compliments on them too!! Definitely would recommend!
