I have been watching the red snake boots for awhile, they were sitting in my cart.  I was waiting for the price to decrease, which it did to an amazing $33 and some change w/ free shipping.  I was a little apprehensive about the fit around the calf, based on previous reviews.  But when I tried them on, they were perfect for me.  And they are actually pretty comfy, just walking around in the house w/ them on. The quality was great. Too bad, spring is upon us b/c I would be rockin these babies!!! Is it not tres chique to still wear boots in early spring?
