I finally bit the bullet and ordered these in black suede. It was a toss up between the suede and the leather but, in my opinion, the suede blends seamlessly with the stretch lining in the back; I felt there was more of a contrast with the leather. First, let me start off by writing that I have wider calves and therefore was concerned that these would not fit. I also have small feet so put those two things together and you understand my pain at finding boots. I ordered a size 4 in these boots because the recommendations had all stated to size down. No problem with the fit in either the shoe size or the calf width. I was amazed! They actually do stretch to fit. I have measured my calves and they are 15 inches in circumference. These were tight but I could tell they would stretch and mold to my legs. Everything was great, until I looked in the mirror and realized I am way too short to wear these. I know these are over the knee boots but it was ridiculous how much over the knee these boots came. The back of the boot, not the front, was at least 1.5 inches over the back of my knee. It just made me look odd. I wish they would come out with a "petite" version of these boots. That would be wonderful! But I am so glad I at least tried these and satisfied my curiosity. They are an exquisite boot but the shaft height is just a wee bit too high.

Prostimeless, comfortable, beautiful
Im not the skinniest girl in the world and I've always had an issue with finding boots that fit my 15" calves and these fit like a dream! I could easily fit a skinny or a legging under and they look awesome with dresses or shorts. Also they are extremely comfortable! These buttery soft dream boots are going to be in my wardrobe forever! They are an investment but, totally worth it!

Proscheap, not worth it, overpriced
Received these boots in the Black Nappa, in my regular size 9. The material is so thin and feels cheap honestly, they do not feel like the quality one would expect from this price range. The toe is super round, and made my foot look super wide. Also, the heel part felt extremely narrow on my foot. There are so many boots that look just like this that are much more affordable, perhaps I will try those.
These are my all time favorite boots. I get endless compliments on them and if I had it my way I would have them in every color! They look great on all shapes and sizes. I am petite and even though these are tall boots, the slimness of them makes them look extremely flattering and not like they are swallowing my leg. My sister who is plus size rocks these as well and they look just as good on her! The stretchiness on the back helps conform the shoe to any calf size. It also makes them look extremely slimming and sleek. I have the black suede and my sister has the leather. The suede are definitely more forgiving. They crease at the ankle so the non-shininess of the suede is more flattering. Lastly, you must order a whole size smaller than what you typically wear. Even if they are extremely tight width wise, don't be alarmed, over time they will stretch. I'm a size 6 and ordered a size 5, after a month they fit my foot perfect and I was easily able to slide them right on.
