Awesome winter boot!
These boots are AMAZING. I walk all over the place in them. Not only are they comfy they keep my feet dry (I walk in mucky weather very often) and WARM. Actually it's a good thing they have that front sipper because sometimes I have to unzip them just because my feet are SO warm! We haven't begun the really frigid part of winter yet so I suspect this is going to be the most valuable quality of these boots...
They're also really cute. Something different--not your everyday rubber rain boot or your run of the mill flat boot--NO ONE else has boots quite like these! And I really can wear them with almost anything. The front zipper is functional not only for cooling (see above) but for fashion versatility. I often wear cute knee-socks and leave them a little unzipped so the socks show.
The only problem I had was small--they do seem to run a little large--not much--and presumably so you can wear big thick socks under them. I wear 7.5 or 8 (usually an 8 is just a little too big or the 7.5 is a little too small and of course different shoes vary so I always try both and choose the best fit) and I got these in an 8. I think they are a little too big and so when I first started wearing them they rubbed on the back of my ankle (because there was some slippage--not a snug fit? I'm not sure this may have happened if they had been smaller too but I'll never know) but this was easily solved with a band-aid and then after I've broken them in I haven't had any more problems.
One last word re: sizing: I have ENORMOUS calves compared to most women and a lot of times can't even fit into calf-length boots. These do actually fit! Though it's snug and I had to stretch them out a bit. Of course I wish they were roomier but that is a function of my calves not the boots. I imagine they will work FINE for an average size calf (though might be a little roomy if you have really really skinny calves) and will also work if you have large-medium calves.More detail ...
