Way too small - I had to return this boot because it was entirely too small. I even ordered a size larger like the review said and they were still to tight too small. I loved the look of this boot though very, very cute, just too small.

Good for narrow calves - I ordered these last year and had to return them. They looked great, but I wasn't able to zip them to the top and there was no way I could have gotten jeans in them. They would be great for people with skinny legs. They do run small - make sure to order a full size larger than you would normally need. I'm a 7.5 and I got a 9 and that was the right size for me with winter socks on.

Cute, but stiff and not very comfortable - These boots are cute as heck, but only passably comfortable. I have slightly narrow feet and normally buy size 8 and wear thick socks and a 3/4-foot padded insole, so I ordered a 9 hoping they wouldn't be too big. Well, they're too small! I can easily wear these with a very thin dress sock, but have no room for an added insole, which these need badly as there is very little padding in the sole. The leather is also very thin and stiff; I can feel the stiffness in the shaft when I walk. Plus, the entire boot is so thin there's little protection from the cold. I agree with another reviewer that they'd look best on those with long calves as they do visually shorten the leg just a bit. On the plus side, they're cute as heck and great for thin calves. My calf measures about 11 3/4" where the top of the boot hits and it fits great. I'd say up to a 12" calf can be accommodated at the top edge. As far as color goes, the brown is more like a light black - a very versatile color that can go with both black and deep brown clothing. Overall, buy these boots for looks, but not quality or comfort.

Thin Calves Only - I do not have exceptionally large calves. I would consider myself normal and fit into boots easily. I ordered a size bigger and could not zip up the side. Too bad, the boots are adorable.
