Whilst I never kept The boots, reason being I wasn't keen on the polished shoe area, I'd rather they were suedette all over, which I thought they were online... they were ultra light weight considering the hefty soul & so comfortable, looked good on aswell despite the over sized appearance , they would be a good long lasting sturdy boot, generous foot room , I'm 5ft 4 & they came right up to my knee , I have thick set ankles & calves though not overly, no issues doing them up
