These boots are really cute. They are made of a velvet like material. I have them in the red and the black and in both colors they are very rich and lush looking. The fact that they have a kitten heel makes them pretty comfortable to wear. I have found that the pleaser brand tends to run small and I always order a size up. These fit perfectly in the foot. They are a little tight in the shaft but they did still fit and I was able to zip them up fully. The only issue I had was that the very end of the straps near the buttons were curled up and sticking out a little. I like these boots and they are great for Halloween or anytime of year.
