I've been looking for a nice winter boot with a wedge for 2 winters.  FINALLY found one I LOVE!  This boot is the same as the "Doe a Deer" Skechers boot.  What's the difference?  The Doe a Deer boot also comes with a removable boot sweater.  The boot sweater is basically a "leg warmer" that goes over the outside of your boot. So, after all the research, I bought these boots in all 3 colors in the "Doe a Deer" style.  That style is LESS expensive than this style.  And when you take the "boot sweater" off of the Doe a Deer... it's this same suede boot.  What a great deal!!  As for the rest of the boot:  The hidden wedge is very comfortable.  Just high enough to add a couple inches (2 1/2"), but not so high that it's uncomfortable.  The suede is nice and soft.  The shaft of the boot is nice and wide at the top, so I didn't have a tough time putting them on over my skinny jeans.  The faux shearling fur is only at the top few inches inside the shaft.  It does little to provide added warmth or looks (as you can't really see it at all when the boot is on).  It has a nice femanine tapered design... not the wide oval you get with Uggs.  And most importantly, the sole of this boot is nice and wide. It isn't a tiny 1" wide sole towards the heel.  So you still get plenty of traction in slippery conditions.  It doesn't have rugged tread, so don't expect to climb snowy mountains in this boot.  But for running errands in snowy conditions or wearing to work, they fit the bill nicely.  I usually wear a 7.5 in most shoes.  Some reviews suggested this boot runs big, but I wanted it a little big so I could wear thick socks.  I ordered the 7.5 and wore it with thin socks.  It fit fine with room to spare... yet no slipping.  I also tried it with nice thick socks and they fit well, too.  The only downside to this boot is that the insole lacks padding.  With the extra room, you could easily add some basic insoles.  I added fancy gel insoles to mine, and they made the boot too tight.  When I added basic padded insoles, the fit was perfect.  Also, since these are suede, it will be a good idea to treat them with waterproof leather protector.  Otherwise the salt and sludge of winter will take its toll on these cuties.  In summary, you can purchase this boot on Amazon for less $$ if you go with the Doe A Deer Plus 3 style.  That style will provide a removable boot sweater which not only is cute, it will add warmth to the boot in colder weather.  In fall or spring, you can take the sweater off and have a simple and cute suede boot.&nbsp;<a data-hook="product-link-linked" class="a-link-normal" href="/Skechers-Women-s-Plus-3-Doe-a-Deer-Boot/dp/B00829NYOA/ref=cm_cr_arp_d_rvw_txt?ie=UTF8">Skechers Women's Plus 3-Doe a Deer Boot</a>
