Comfy but no ankle support -
I'm used to my
boots giving me at least some ankle support, so I was surprised to find how floppy at the top this pair is - there's gotta be at least a quarter inch gap between the inside of the shank at the top and my leg. It doesn't feel like you're wearing a boot - more like a clog or
mule shoe. The platform heel though is nice; the color is the same as the rest of the shoe so it blends together, and provides excellent support. I'm a little worried about how the suede will stand up to the snowy, slushy, messy weather where I live, but there's a lining on the inside around the bottom half of the shoe that adds extra protection.
