I love these boots, but unfortunately, they were just about an inch too tall for me. These boots would have been perfect if they hadn't hit my calves in the wrong spot. I have large calves (18") which caused an uncomfortable scrunching of the shaft of the boot. Other than that, the boots were beautiful and well made just as promised. They were just a hair more narrow than I would have liked as well, but if not for the issue my calves presented, I would have kept them knowing the leather would have stretched across the foot as they were broken in.
