"These boots were amazing looking when they arrived at my house, unfortunately I wasn't able to zip them all the way up and I ordered a wide calf. I don't have enormous calves they just weren't roomy enough. So sadly I had to send them back. But measure your calves first and if they will fit, get them they are so cute!"
Pros: Stylish, affordable
Yes, I recommend this product.

"I bought these online and the only size available was an 8 1/2. I actually wear an 8, but the 8 1/2 works perfectly fine. The uppers are a bit stiff, but I'm sure I'll have them broken in soon. Good value."

In addition, the heel was made out of a hard plastic which was slippery to walk in."

"These boots are beautiful. I like the simple styling and deep color. The fact that they are wide makes them more comfortable. I have large calves which is why i purchased these. At first, they were tight, but now they've broken in. My only concern is that they dont go all the way up to the knee."
Pros: style, price, size
Cons: 3/4 length
Yes, I recommend this product.

"I bought these boots for my teenage granddaughter and they fit her perfectly. It's so hard to find boots in her size (11W) that fit her both in size and width. She has 14-1/2" calves and these have enough room to tuck her jeans into the tops. She likes the fact that these boots go with everything, from jeans to jeggings to skirts, from very casual to dressy."
Yes, I recommend this product.
