I didn't like these boots at all.  The "leather" did not feel like leather to me,  instead a very thin, flimsy leather-like material.  You can't tell from the picture how thin the "leather" is.  The fit is weird.  I don't have skinny calves but the fit is very loose and sloppy.  I just measured them; I have 13 1/2 " calves which I think is pretty average.  In any case, my other boots don't fit like these do.  I would not recommend these boots.
