Love these boots, I have pretty bad feet, as far as soreness goes the next day after wearing a bad pair of shoes and these are great, no pain. My only complaint is, I like the stretchy on the back side as I have bigger calves and it is one of the few pair of boots that will actually fit over my calves, but with stockings on they slide down, defeating the purpose of having knee high boots.

Fantastic boots! Like the other reviewers, I also have large muscular calves and have trouble finding cute boots with a wide enough shaft. Not to mention I'm 5'10" and have trouble finding anything that comes above my mid calf. This boot is so stylish (I got all black) and stretches enough to slide right on, even over my jeans. And they hit right at my knee, and I can finally have knee high boots for my stilt like legs! I would recommend this boots for anyone who is tall or has large calves, you will not regret it!

Look great, but it doesn’t last!!
I absolutely love these boots, but after having them for only a month, they leather is sooo beat up with chunks missing! I own many a pair of leather boots and I have never had a pair fall apart like these! Sad.

Great Boot -
I love this boot. I'm 5'10" with a wide calf and this boot seems made for me. It goes right to my knee and fits nicely around my legs. Others have complained about the synthetic part looking cheap, but I disagree, it looks chic, sleek and sexy. A little more arch support would be nice. This is one of the few tall pull on boots that I didn't have to struggle to get on. Like a stocking, you just pull 'em up and go!

Sexy & comfy -
Let me start by saying my legs are huge!!! Therefore, the boots fit tighter (in the leg) than I think they are supposed to. This turned out to be a very sexy look. It's hard to find a sexy look with a comfortable feel. This boot achieves just that. I'm sure because of the material - with wear, the boots will become more loose fitting. I definitely recommend these for ladies with large legs who have a hard time finding knee boots to fit their calf size.

TERRBILE!!!
I HATE these boots! They look nothing like they did in the pics. First of all, the leather is SO cheap looking… and the material on the back appears to be a micro fiber in the pic, but really it’s a rubbery material (just like material used in wet suits). They are HUGE on the calves which is stupid for an over the knee boot. I would NOT reccomend these boots. Don’t let the pics fool you... they are nothing like the pics. I don’t blame zappos.com in any way for this because I have ordered many things from zappos and never had this happen. Also, DO NOT BE FOOLED… these are not the Stuart Weizman boots you may have seen in department stores, they are aesthetically just like them (besides the cheap leather and materials), but fit NOTHING like them... if you want these boots, pay the extra money for the real thing!

The Boot I Have Been Looking For -
Finally, a boot that fits, looks great, and is comfortable from day one. I almost gave up on finding boots that would fit my athletic calves and glad I didn't. These Riderz are made of beautiful leather (calfskin, I think) so they are butter-soft, combined with stretch material that isn't too loose or too tight when I tuck my jeans in them. I wouldn't recommend these if you plan on wearing them with dresses or skirts, due to the longer-in-front look. But I LOVE it with jeans and skinny pants!

Comfy and Tall!
I've been looking for a riding boot that comes to my knee and I'm 5'7" - I also have a good size calf and the elastic backing fits with room to spare! These look nice with the new shorter sweater dresses and also with jeans tucked in... the leather isn't the best looking I've ever seen, but all in all I think they're definitely worth the price!

Really, really tall -
The leather on these is not super great, and I also don't love the microfiber back. However, the fit is nice at the ankle, which is hard to find in boots with wider calves. They are *really* tall. I'm 5'8" and they come up over my knees. I don't like them over jeans because of that. However, they look great with skirts and dresses. I'm keeping them, but they aren't the boot of my dreams.

Perfect fit!
These are perfect for anyone with an athletic calf. I have really struggled to find tall boots with a wide enough calf that still look cute. I get tons of compliments every time I wear these. I did add an additional insole to make the boot a little warmer and more comfortable. With that addition, I have a perfect pair of boots!

Cute boot, but lacking quality -
I have wide legs and have had trouble finding a pair of knee high boots that actually fit. I was very happy that not only do these boots fit, but they are actually comfortable. The dark material in the back makes my legs look thinner, which I love! I have had many compliments on these boots. However, the material looks cheap and after wearing them twice (!) the toe of the boots were not only scuffed, but the material started flaking off. Very disturbing considering how much I paid for them!

Oddly Fitting Boot -
It is a wide calf, I think it would fit anyone's calf. I guess technically it fit, but I am too short for this boot. I am 5ft 2in and the boot goes over my knee and then bunched at the ankle. If I were taller, these would be cute boots. The leather felt nice and they have a cool dressy, casual look. Also, the foot part was a bit tight. I think this would stretch with time.

Cool -
I own this boot in brown and they look good with skirt and dresses. The brown is not a true brown color, more of a greybrown. Goes with everything. I have an 18" calf and a US size 7 so this is the first time I have found a boot that actually goes all the way up to my knee. After having used them about a month, they slide down a bit (only using them with hosiery). I also have high rise with a between M and W foot and they fit great and are true-to-size. I like the cool look of them and will buy another color too! As always, Zappos has the most outstanding service!

Nice knee high boots - I liked the style of the boots but I was somewhat disappointed in the quality of the leather and the fit. I expected a more supple, soft leather and a tighter fit in the calves, especially because the back is made with a microfiber, which should fit tighter. Maybe they would be better suited for those with larger calves and those who want to tuck in a pair of jeans. I intended to wear them to fit snug with a pair of tights.

Nice boots, but might have to return them -
Love the length of the boots. They came all the way up to my knees - this has NEVER happened before being as I am one blessed with healthy sized calves. Anyway, I might be returning them because of two things: first is that it makes a noise when I walk. I don't mean the heel noise, but it’s a squish squash noise coming from the inside of the boots. I find that a bit distracting. Secondly, I feel the leather looks a little bit cheap for the cost of the boots. Still trying to make up my mind though because the boots definitely do look good with skirts and dresses.
