Nice boots, I love the dark chocolate color. For my taste, the ankle opening (mouth) is wider than I thought. In fact, It's almost like a pull-on boot, It doesn't taper to the calf (I thought it would have some "fit" to it given the side zip).  Maybe I missed it in the description.  That combined with a slightly large fit, makes them wearable, but not my favorite.  I'm overseas right now and it's too much trouble to return them or I would.
