I love, love, love these boots.  They were the third pair I ordered in my search to find a perfect pair of black boots that can be dressed up or dressed down and these hit the mark perfectly.  The size is spot on and the quality is great, the leather is soft yet thick and sturdy, and if you have narrow calves like I do these are great because they actually hug the calf with just a little room instead of banging around your leg when you walk like so many other boots do.  Very happy with these boots!
