These boots are amazing -- the perfect blend of fashion, function, and comfort. I went on a shopping spree with Amazon's Free Shipping/Free Returns offer and these are the winner. You are not going to beat the value. These are well made, sturdy, great-looking boots. The stitching and joining of materials is a teeny bit sloppy but no one would ever notice. I'll take that and save my money instead of shelling out for the really high end boots.They are WARM! There is furry padding lining the entire boot. I tried others that had the fur but not the squishy memory foam-feeling thinsulate and these are so much better and comfier. Do NOT wear cotton socks with them if you're going for warmth. The moisture issue with cotton has a cooling effect.I tried boots with fabric ankle/calf sections and they were all terrible because of the difference in the clunky foot and the lighter flexible top. Those shifted and rubbed with every step because the foot is so much heavier than the top.The length is true to size. My feet are very narrow and just finding shoes that are wearable is about all I hope for. Even though the footbed is much wider than some of the others I tried on, the extra padding gives great support and they actually fit. But because it's thick padding that gives, I think it would be fine for wider feet, too. When I first put them on I thought I'd need a bigger size but after walking around in them for a few minutes I realized that I was just feeling all of that warm padding snuggling my toes and it's fine. I hope it doesn't compress much over time, but there's no way to tell that now.Love the dark brown coffee bean color. It's not too red. I tried a brown and gray coat with it which both looked nice, but I was surprised that the gray actually looks better with it because it ties in with the gray accents on the boots. Love them so much!
