Overall, these are very cute and worth the price, if you buy them on sale. The suede is real vs the manmade fabric that seems to be popular, even in some higher priced boots. I got these in grey and the color is great, dark enough that dirt won't show too much but light enough to be a true grey color. The grey stitching on the seams and the top snaps match well. The snaps on top are actually covered with a nice leather-like material, are a decent size and snap securely without being hard to manage (easy on the manicure).

The suede is very smooth, soft and comfortable against the skin as these are unlined. The suede is thin so it scrunches easily, doesn't add any "bulk" to the legs, but provides no warmth at all (but who buys these for warmth anyway). I am 5'3" and these fall about an inch above my kneecap. They do fall down a bit and have a scrunchy look (not like the picture at all). If they are folded over with tops snapped, they stay up better but lose the over-the-knee look, which makes them pretty versatile. These are slightly fitted through the foot and ankle, but not tight and seem to fit TTS. No zipper, but they pull on and off easily. The rubber bottom and flat heel make these very comfortable to walk around in for hours at a time. Overall, I am very happy with this purchase and considering buying the brown (only 55 bucks on Amazon). These are exactly what I wanted at a reasonable price. Kudos to Amazon!

I like Chinese Laundry boots as a rule. I bought the grey boot, the color is great, the fit is fine. The boots do slip down which is a pain. If you want a scrunch boot this boot is fine, but if you want it to stay over your knee - well, it slips.

These boots were a gift for my wife and she was very pleased with the fit and look of these boots. She loves over the knee boots and these were ideal height for her (she is 5'9.) Would highly recommend these to others.

I have to say reading reviews from all over different sites, I was skeptical about these boots. Some said the material was cheap, or some said that it didn't look good in general for some despite the majority of good reviews. I am extremely picky and very careful so I needed to be sure before I decided to order these. I took the chance and am I glad! I have been looking for over the knee boots for a while and because I'm especially short (5'1), it is very hard. But these are very cute. I have to say that for a short girl, I do not have especially short legs, they are proportioned if that helps to make the decision. Because I have read reviews warning short girls not to buy these in case. So for me, these boots worked fine. Even so, some outfits I cannot pull off in these boots but come on, what shoes really go with every outfit? You need variation.

there is nothing i dont love about these shoes...except for that i cant wear them 24/7. they are super comfortable, great quality, and super cute with anything! love love love them!

These boots were exactly as I expected. There are very soft and, like other reviewers mentioned, therefore do not stand up like the picture shows. Knowing this I am very satisfied with my nice grey boots.

The boots are adorable. The suede is soft but very thin and flimsy. You would need very big calves for them to stay up. I ordered a size 5 and amazon sent me a size 5 box with size 5 1/2 boots. This is so disappointing. I have been waiting for them for a while. Chinese Laundry are already running a 1/2 a size too big. A waste of my money and time.

This boot is a flat suede beauty adorned with four functional snaps on the upper cuff.
The suede is thin and easy to go over leggings, jeans or tights.
The boot shaft is great for petite people like me. It goes above the knee and the circumference of the shaft is
a desirable size for women who want a boot that is form-fitting opposed to baggy and large.
This boot is great for the price.
Ladies with "Wide Calf" measurements beware a bit. They will fit quite snug on you.
I want them in brown but cannot find them. I purchased them because Khloe Kardashian had them on in a magazine.
I am 100 lbs and 5 ft tall and these are rocking on me. Petite girls, these are perfect for you, as they are for me.
I hope you purchase these boots, but remember, they are not Prada or Gucci, so expect the overall quality to be moderate.

I just purchased these boots after visiting a friend who had them. Hers are the suede toast color; mine are gray suede. She and I were shopping and had at least a dozen people stop us to ask about the boots- one person described it as boot envy. I know they are considered over the knee boots, but we wear them folded down as knee high boots. She doesn't snap any of the snaps before folding the top over and that gives a more relaxed, casual look. I snap two of the snaps before folding them over and that looks a bit more polished. I find the suede to be of fine quality, and the boots are pretty comfortable, although there is not a great deal of support. After visiting my friend, I came home to search for the boot, and originally I ordered the Chinese Laundry Trust Me boot. It has more structure in the leg, and therefore, would not slouch as much as this boot does. I returned them and ordered these because I wanted the unstructured boot. Sometimes they are a little tricky to put skinny jeans into. For me, though, there is enough space that I can kind of get my hand in and help push the jeans down. My biggest problem is that it has been snowy and/or slushy since I got them, and I don't want to ruin the suede by wearing them outside. I normally wear a size 7.5 or 8. I have these boots in 7.5 and they are comfortable but on the loose side.

These are very nice boots! I got them at a great price in the brown suede and they are nice quality.The price I paid with Amazon's 25% off was about $38, and you can't beat that! The suede is a little thin but it works for me. They are true over the knee boots and they do stay up over the knee even though they slip slightly. I really am glad I made this purchase and would definately recommend them because they are nice quality for a the price you'd be lucky to pay for synthetic.
