I got these at a great price as they were a customer return. I normally wear a 6 in boots and that's what I ordered. They fit very true to size. Also I would say the boots I received were most definitely more of a dark taupe than a grey which came as no surprise to me as I read many reviews warning of this. I actually love the color and was hoping they wouldn't be a true, cool grey. I'd say all the reviews stating they are narrow in the calf with a large ankle is accurate. In my opinion it looks great and is part of the design. They are also narrow in the foot, so perfect for us scrawny-legged, narrow-footed gals!

My calves are 12.5 inches at the largest part and these boots are perfect for me, which is VERY hard to find....especially in a casual boot! There is slight gap between the boots and my skinny jeans but the style of the boot seems to call for that, and I'm not sure if I'd like them if they were snug at the calf yet loose at the ankle. The style is very relaxed, with a rustic lived in look. They do not have a tailored cut....its pretty much straight from the top all the way to the ankle. I can see wearing them with a ton of casual clothes. For me is will be skinny jeans/leggings mostly but they would also look fantastic with a casual dress to add a boho/western flair.

I will be keeping my eyes open for more colors to go on sale for sure.
