These are the cutest boots ever, and I really love them. I'd have given them 4.5 stars, but that's not an option. For a 5, things need to be perfect for me. The suede looks good, is relatively soft, and the short heel makes them sexy, but still very easy to get around in. Albeit they are a bit slippery on the snow, but they aren't supposed to be snow boots after all.

THE GOOD: First, they are so adorable. Second, these are very comfortable with a low kitten heel and very giving material. Third, they pull up over a skinny jean and my almost 15" circumference calves easily. Last, the suede seems decent, and isn't some faux thing. I did get compliments when I wore them.

THE BAD--(but not really all that bad)- The edging piping leading from sole to top of bottoms is cheap,you can tell it won't hold up really well for very long, and after wearing them once, and just sitting and walking around a Christmas party for a few hours, some of mine already flaked off.

Two, the buttons don't seem all that sturdy, and I am sure they will pop off before too long. Also, for what its worth, the buttons are completely ornamental. They don't snap or anything, in the event you thought they did. I wasn't sure based on the picture. Figured they were just for looks, but would've been kinda cool if they did snap together to hold the boot on.
Last, the heels seems wobbly, (and some of the suede is already scuffed off there after short use). I would think it would be possibly to make it be sturdier for the back of your heel, but then again, I am not used to suede boots OR lower heels! Maybe its a price you pay for the suede look. Oh, and the suede around the ankle is a bit loose if you aren't wearing it with a jean under it.

Final note, these are so comfy and cute, I would definitely buy them again, at least at the price I bought them for. Some places have them at over $1XX.xx and I think that would be too much. This is just right.

I got this boot in gray and I love it! looks good with skinny jean or tights. I have little calves (I'm 5'2" 110 lbs) and the boot fits me perfect around the leg.

I had ordered these boots before for $129.00 size 8. but boots are Medium Width so when returned them for a 7.5M they were sold out. Not only did i find the boots but what a bargain less than $50.00 no tax and free Shipping. I ordered the Grey Boots and now the Black ones...yaaay... They are very comfortable and hot....

Great boot! I wore them for 3 full days while walking and climbing the hills of San Francisco without concern!

I do have thicker calves, so I appreciate the pull up, although they don't stay up completely. But they're super comfortable!!

just received these the other day...they were beautiful in the box, however, when i took them out, upon closer inspection, the "suede" was rubbed off in multiple places throughout both boots...i absolutely loved them...perfect gray color, great ruching, mid-heel...very stylish!!! also, the top button on one of the boots was very loose...
if these could have been made from a better material, they would be AMAZING!!!
however, i could not justify spending the money on boots that i knew i would only wear one season. The seller was great about the return, however, it cost me $13 this morning to return them!!!
lesson learned....

I got these boots in black for my birthday, and they looked amazing. Perfect heel height, comfy, pretty. But the heel broke after only two weeks. But I like the shoe so much, I'm going to pay to have them fixed. I do wish they were more durable, however.

Good price, great quality, true to fit. For those with larger or muscular calves, they offer a flattering fit. The heel is not too high and the foot bed is roomy. Great for the petite woman since the boot shank is not too tall.

I love these boots! They are so comfortable that I can wear them all day long! I get so many compliments on them! thinking about getting the black ones!

Super cute boots. I may order the gray ones. Product matched pictures online. Boots arrived in a timely manner.
