Beautiful, comfortable, dressy boots - The heel is not too high and just the right height for walking. The croc pattern is so "in" right now. They are comfortable, but just a smidge tight at the top against my leg (calf). The "pointed" toe look is very fashionable. It accommodates a wider foot and still looks good. A little bit pricey, but seems to be quality. They should stand up to Michigan's winter well. Looks great with leggings and tights worn with either a dress or skirt.

These boots ROCK! I wear size 8 in pointy-toed shoes so went with the 8 and it's perfect. I don't have skinny calves by any stretch of the imagination but had NO problems with these boots. These boots are from the winter 2006 line but they're just as stylish today, very unique. I get a LOT of compliments on these boots.

This boot feels a full size smaller than the size. It's strange I bought the same boot in San Fran in a 7 1/2 (it fits great). I love the boot and found it on Zappos, so I ordered it in black in a 7 1/2 and it’s a size too small. I'm reordering in an 8 1/2 wish me luck.

I am a Cheerleader and we use these shoes to cheer in. We use them for games, competitions, and practice. I would have to say these shoes are great ankle supports. The shoes keep my ankles from rolling when in flying in the air and when tumbling (flipping). These shoes don’t stay clean very easy and they makes me have to buy at least three pair a year but they are still good shoes to have.

Ordered both brown and black versions of this boot. Unfortunately, these were too small for me. I normally wear a 9, but ordered 9.5. Still on the tight side. Also could not fully zip over my calves (mine measure 15.5). Nice heal height would be comfortable, and these boots were very sexy. Just not for me. Hope this helps someone else.

Boots run a size too small. They are definitely for small calves which was perfect for me, but the upper material feels very flimsy. If you are ordering this product, you must have small calves and order a size larger.

What a huge mistake. I have never been so disappointed with an order from Zappos! I love Zappos. First of all anyone who is interested in this boot and has never tried this style before, do not buy it! I opened up the box (it is always like Christmas) and when I got to the boots they were so cheap looking and made cheap. They are cute in theory, but do not think they would last long! Second of all mine were defective so the inspection was not done correct before sending them to me. Last but not least, they run a whole size small. I wear a 7 ordered 7 1/2 to allow room for thick tights; no way that was happening and I have a very narrow calf and foot. Go on to another pair and pass these by!

Way too narrow in the calf even with the stretch panel. If you plan on ordering these, make sure to measure around your calf first to see if they will fit. These are going back.

Not comfortable at all - I am so disappointed with these boots. Online they looked perfect...nice heel height, pointy toe & croc...could it get any better? Sadly, they could get way better. I wear in between a 7.5-8, for xmas my husband ordered a 7.5...I couldn't even attempt to get in them, they were so small in the foot. So we sent them back and ordered an 8.5. I still was looking so forward to getting them. When I tried on the 2nd pair, they fit my feet but were so tight on my big toes. I went ahead and zipped them up only to find I couldn't go over my calf, something which I've never had with other boots. Sadly, I'm done with these boots, guess I'll just have to find another boot. Zappos, thanks for the free shipping and easy returns!

A good choice - My daughter loves these shoes. She says they are very comfortable and is happy to wear them. They are a little bit unusual because when you look closely at them you can really tell the sole is made of recycled materials. But my daughter thinks they're cool.
