I was wary of the mixed reviews on these boots but decided, for the price, why not? I had seen a very similar pair of boots at a large department store last Christmas and fell in love with them, unfortunately they were out of my size and I could not find them anywhere else. Those boots were also $75 dollars. When I found these online I was ecstatic. I understood going into this purchase that the quality might not be the best, you get what you pay for right? But even if they only last me a year or two I feel I will have gotten my money's worth. I ordered the black and, after three months, am glad to say I am happy with my purchase. They fit true to size, are super cute, and you can't beat the price! I wear mine at least a couple times a week, and they have shown no signs of wear, stretching out, or falling apart yet as other reviewers have stated. Since I wear them to work quite often (a bakery where I am on my feet for long hours) I put some Dr. Scholl's inserts into them as they do not have a lot of support. They still fit great and are quite comfortable! Am seriously considering another pair in another color!
