I have searched for over a year for a warm boot like this with a heel. I  took my chances on these and ordered a size 5 since I usually wear a  5 in boots, however the padding in these boots made them just too tight all round and put my foot to sleep. I reordered a size 6 and although they are still very snug, I love them. Because of the padding inside I wear just a nylon sox with them. I liked that they can be rolled down, and planned to wear them like that, but they are too short to roll and don't look good rolled down but look great just as they are. They are comfortable, padded, warm and well made. I live in Hawaii and ordered them for a trip I just took to Seattle and they were perfect. I received many compliments on them. I am not sure I will be able to wear them here in Hawaii since they are so warm, but maybe on a cold night I will try them. Perfect for skinny jeans and mini skirts. I think they are narrow enough they probably would even fit under boot cut jeans. The boot looks better on then in the photo, and the heel is a nice bonus for height. I ordered the sand and it is a perfect neutral color. They are a bit hard to get on and off due to no zipper, but I think they will break in some and it might get easier. If I lived in a cold climate I probably would order another pair in a dark color, Order up to the next size and you will love these boots...very classy  looking. Feels like I am right out of the Sundance Film Festival!
