I had the Virra, but accidentally bought the Tirra..I wasn't sure about the higher heel, but they are super comfy. The cut around the ankle strap is higher, but I'm used to it now. I love the look and can walk long distances right out of the box!
I love them, and I anticipate wearing them for a good long time. you must go up at least a half a size. I wear a 7.5 and I had to send them back. Reviews somewhere said they look good for hiking. No they're wonderful boots but they are not for hiking.
