They fit my wide feet (even though the boots are a medium width) and are flattering to my chunky ankles.  It's a bit of a job getting over my high instep, but will eventually go on. If you have narrow  feet and slender ankles, they will probably not work for you.
 I like the distressed, but not shabby, leather.  The lovely footbed padding stops short of the ball of your foot, though, which is odd, because the heel is high enough to need more padding in ball of foot. Also,  I have to admit that even though I love them, my feet hurt at the end of the day--I would never do any real walking wearing these.
