I got these for christmas in olive green size 7, and haven't stopped trying to incorporate them into my outfit everyday since. They go up to about 4 inches below my kneecap. They're warm, comfy, and oh god the compliments!! They run true to size, maybe a little small. I'm usually a 7 1/2 for comfort but since it was either a 7 or nothing i got them in a 7. I have just enough room to where my toes don't hit the front.
Seriously though, if you're debating getting these just do it!!
I fell in love with the blue ones as soon as I zipped them up. They are so comfortable. I tested them out by playing a concert in them. (I play bass guitar in a rock band). I'm so glad they'll be my "something blue" for my wedding this Friday! <3
I got mine in last week and wore them out for the whole weekend in all my adventures to get a good feel for their durability. First let me say, I am really happy with their style and comfort. I wouldn't mind adding some gel insoles just to add a little extra comfort for long walks, but they are pretty good for normal day to day wear. The inside zippers got stuck once, but were quickly unfastened with a little applied force.
I like that you can adjust the laces to accommodate the size of your calves. I'm not a big girl, but I have strong Polish oxen-cart pulling thighs inherited from my mothers side, so adjusting the width is important. These offer some "breathing room" thankfully.
I walked around the coast at the Half Moon Bay art and wine fair and did just fine for 2 hours on the streets with no gel insoles. I got a lot of compliments too! The zippers on the inseam are a little dangly and you have to get used to them knocking against the side once in a while. Then I went to the beach and climbed up the rocky coves and steep inclines. They held up pretty well against those too! Not quite as much traction as my Doc Martens, but still not bad. I got some gum stuck on the bottom somewhere along my adventures....much easier to remove with a stick than my Doc's, so that was a plus :)
All in all, awesome boots and I would definitely recommend them!
*Also, I don't know what they primer these boots with, but my cat is absolutely in love with the smell of them. He's barely left them alone since I've got them out of the box.
