I love these boots! Perfect fit and very comfortable. They are so cool looking. I have been reading reviews all over about these and was wary. Some people loved them and some people couldn't get their foot in the boot and it didn't fit their calves. Well, I had no problem. I'm 8 1/2 and my calves are pretty full.

I get lots of compliments on this boot from my high school students. I have seldom found a boot that fits big enough in the leg, but here it is. Added bonus, it really keeps your feet dry -- even if you step into a deep puddle! I live in the Puget Sound region and it has been put to the test! My only criticism is that the buttons pop off if you like to tuck your leg up under you when you sit like me.

I love this boot's versatility - jeans, skirts, rolled jeans, leggings, cropped pants, skirts with stockings, you name it! I wear a size 11 narrow, and finally have found a boot that is narrow enough in the heel to not slip. Also, I love how lightweight it is. I can see myself walking in the city for hours without any foot pain. They are very comfortable, and hit my arch at just the right spot. Toe room is just right. I like the sleekness of them, but also the details that give them an edge. I find that they are not too high and not too low. I can wear them under my boot cut jeans without it appearing that I have boots on. The only down-side for me is that I have a narrow calf, and they are bit roomy, but not as roomy as other boots I have tried. I am excited about adding these to my winter wardrobe. Oh, and the fact that they are waterproof is such a great bonus! Thank you Zappos for great service as always. I call you all my personal shoe store, and recommend you to all my friends. You make a size 11 narrow girl feel like she is not alone!

I love these boots! Very comfortable--I could walk for a while in them. The top is a little tight on my calves, but I have pretty muscular calves and after wearing the boots a few times, the leather is beginning to stretch a little. I would recommend these boots.

Cute, comfortable and stylish, but ran large. Normally I purchase a size 8 so I have room for my custom orthodics, but even with additional insole, the boot was too big. Quality was nice, so I will try a size 7 1/2 in this trendy, but neutral little boot.
Brands I'd also recommend: Timberland, Naot, Gentle Souls.

I'm on my second pair of these amazing boots. Insanely comfortable, breaks in quickly, all weather. The waterproofing starts to give after about a year, but I wear these solidly through 3 seasons (and rainy summer days). These are totally true to size. I have medium feet and these are perfecto. My legs are kind of chubby, and these stretch out after a couple of wearings to zip up quickly. I teach and these are my perfect, 10 hours on my feet, boots.

Very comfortable boot, has a neat army style with the straps that run around the back of the boot. You could walk for miles in these boots right out of the box. They were also very supportive. Just wish they didn't come up quite as high as they did, I like when boots come right at the bottom of the calf muscle, and show it off.

I have wide feet and found these to be the most comfortable of the 4 boots I ordered to try. The foot bed is just shy of feeling like a sneaker and the toe box is a bit wider than the average boot.

The boots seem very well make and look even nicer in person than they do in the photo. My only gripe is that the sizing was weird. I normally take a 7 in boots, I couldn't even get the 7 on my foot. The 7.5s were a squeeze and the 8s were too big. I recommend trying these on in a store before purchasing. They are pretty cute so if you can find a pair that fit, I highly recommend them.

These boots are comfy and stylish, and they have a removable insole that accommodates my orthodics. They look great with leggings and skinny jeans tucked in, and skirts and dresses, too!

These boots are really comfortable and cute, and you can even dance in them! I have broad feet and usually wear a size 38 (US 7.5), and this one felt a teensy bit big, particularly at the toe box. I'm sure they'll be perfect once I get to wearing thicker socks.

The ankle area on this boot is really small. If you've got wide feet or a high instep, you'll be hard pressed to get your foot into this boot, and that's a shame since it is really cute in person.

Great all weather boot without the look of a clunky rainproof boot. This product is very comfortable and the leather gets more character as it wears. Great product and runs true to size! I wear a 6.5 or a 7 so I ordered the 6.5 and find it fits perfectly.

I love this boot. They don't look so thick and wide on your foot as in the picture, but have a great steampunk/military look to them. I ordered an 8.5 (roughly my usual size, depending on brand), and the foot bed fit beautifully with and without thicker socks. But even with just leggings or thin socks the shaft fit very snugly around my calf. I decided to send them back and try the 9, but there was almost no difference at all in the shaft size (a very helpful Zappos employee said there was a 1/8" difference), and then the foot bed and ankle was too loose and it hurt to walk in them. My calves aren't especially large, and it's possible these would have stretched (the leather feels great, though it does scuff very easily), but my calves are big because I walk a lot and can't handle break-in time. I am sending them back.

I bought these for my daughter (she is a teacher) and they are super. Low heel for comfort and being on your feet for all day, but very cute with skirts.

I love these boots. I have them in brown, and regular wear (at least once a week, 3 seasons of the year) has given them a gorgeous vintage scuffed-up look that makes them even more distinctive. People are constantly complimenting me on them, and they're always amazed to learn that they're basically fancy leather high-tops. They're ridiculously comfortable -- of course they are, they're Merrells! -- and they were easy to walk in even from the very first day. I'm tempted to buy a second pair and stash them away.

These were too tight on my instep. If you have a high instep, these will not work for you.
