I've been on the hunt for the perfect tall black boots for a while now, and I was just about to drop a lot more money on a pair when I came across these. I LOVE them! They are very comfortable and fit my average-sized calves perfectly. I can tuck jeans into them but they are still snug when I am only wearing leggings or tights. I will use another reviewer's suggestion and glue down the straps. My only issue is that they seem to run a little large; I usually wear an 8.5 or 9, and these boots still feel a little big even though I ordered an 8.5. Also there's something a little strange about the shape of the heel... I can't figure it out but I hope once they are broken in it will be better. Overall, a very comfortable, deceptively expensive-looking boot!

I liked these boots BUT the area near the top of my foot was really wide - there was an open space there. The buckles were cute, but I felt they were a bit "busy" for a work boot. More of a fun going out boot I would say, so if I needed them only for that, I may have kept them.

I really like these boots...the buckles add something unique to a comfortable flat boot. The shaft is slightly small compared to most boots, but they fit my calves just fine. The inside of the boot has a cushy, foam lining-which adds warmth and comfort. I feel like I can wear these with just about everything!

ok, everything everyone said on here is true....the buckles do stick out...and the ankle part of the boot does cave in a bit.....but here is what I did: to flatten the buckles, I put crazy glue on the band against the boot, and I paperclipped each buckle strap to the band and left it overnight...the next day, it looked just the way it should, like in the picture!! As for the ankle part, well, most boots tend to do that....when you tuck your jeans in, try to fill the ankle part in..

The boots fit but the straps stick out so much they look very strange. The picture shows them against the boot...that is not how they lay at all. Bad design, I guess.

These boots are amazing. The price does not reflect the quality, you would never know this an under $100 boot. They are very comfortable and look great with skinny jeans or leggings.
Great boot but not for calf with a little meat

I fell in love with those shoes when i bought them and even as i took them out the box and proceeded to zip them up my legs BUT they stuck 7/10th of the way up. Obviously I had a wide calf that i never knew about. Really great looking boots but not for folks whose calf aren't small. Uggh!! Broke my heart to send them back.
Great Fit and Very Comfortable!

Love these boots! I think they make my calves look great and fit perfectly with skinny jeans or even leggings. I bought the brown and they look awesome with my leather jacket--even though they aren't real leather, they don't look cheap. My one minor issue is that the buckle straps kind of stick out from the side of the boot. I wish they laid flatter like they do in the picture. But all around, flattering and comfortable and a great boot for the price!

Purchased in Black, and it arrived the next day. The size 8 fits true to size; it was nice & snug on my size 14 calf with pants tucked inside of boot. Very easy to walk in, and kept my feet nice & dry in flood waters......The ONLY downside is that the boot left black streaks on my floor. Would definitely purchase again!

I just got this boot in the mail today. I generally wear a 7.5 or an 8, (as much as a 9 in some cases) and I went with a 7.5. However, they were gigantic! There is at least an inch and a half between my toe and the end of the shoe. They're at least a full size too big. Also, the calves were enormous as well. Granted, I've got scrawny little legs, but even with jeans worn inside the boot they looked ridiculous. I'm going to try a 6.5 to see if those will have a properly fitting foot area and a non-humongous calf area.
The look of the boot is really quite nice, and they are very comfortable, too. So I'm going to be super disappointed if the smaller sizes don't fit either!
Looks great, just not on the foot

I loved this boot because of the buckles on the side. When I got them, they still looked great, but when I put them on, they were not as wonderful. They were big through the ankle, so they kinda puffed out when I stood. The shaft was true to size, and even a little tight when I had skinny jeans on. I have small calves (13 in) so I was surprised by that. Bottom line: They are cute, but not extremely flattering on. Plus, they are not leather, so for the money, I decided they were not worth keeping.
