I love the looks of these boots! But they have a few places because of how they're made with the leather in the front of the calf and the elasticized fabric on the back where they rub. They're very comfortable in the foot area. The upper feels good when they're first put on too, but after a few hours, the rubbing becomes noticeable. Also, people with thicker calves will probably want to avoid these. I have very stick like calves and they fit me fine without feeling tight. The fabric part could stretch quite a bit more than it does on me, but I think that would make the rubbing issue worse.

I have one other pair of boots from this brand and they're great! They're a different design though.
