First, I would like to say that the boots are extremely warm, cute, and comfortable. The only thing I have a problem with, is the noise they make, and the removable liner. I could live with the noise, and it probably wouldn't be so bad if not for the liner. It Velcros in at the top front and back of the boot opening, but doesn't have any velcro to keep the liner in place at the bottom of the boot. I'm thinking possibly at the back of the boot in the heel would be adequate. The noisiness stems from the liner being loose and moving around when you walk. I may keep them, but I am slightly disappointed. Shipping took along time also. I ordered a size 8 and I'm usually a size 8 1/2. Size 8 is too big...possibly part of the noise issue. I'm going to buy some insoles and see if that snugs things up.
