I had done a fair amount of research before buying these boots. I was looking to replace a beautiful pair of italian leather flat knee-high boots that I had owned & loved for a few years and finally decided upon this pair. The price of the Daphne boot was right and the small wedge heel was appealing.

Good points :
* The top of the boot truly reaches the knee.
* The calf of the boot is not constructed as generously wide as most that I have tried on recently. This is a plus, I am 5'8 and 128. On my frame many boots appear unfilled and unstructured. I have found the designers have been catering to those with greater, bulkier legs than my own. Not the case here. A good find!
* They are an extremely confortable pair of boots. The soles are made of leather and lend to flexibility. You can definately wear them all day and into the night and your feet do not feel the least bit tired.

Bad point :
* The leather quality... Are they leather? Questionable. Either a low grade or perhaps a good "pleather". Imagine wrapping your legs in a bread bag all day and releasing them... Sorry, but there is an issue here with "breathability" and well, these boots do not smell nice. A problem I've never experienced before.

Overall - I would not recommend them.
