Wow, I absolutely love these boots. They are extremely comfortable. They have quickly become my favorite boots. I can use super thick and regular slack socks. I liked the distressed look since I have 3 big dogs who step on my feet constantly with their muddy paws and they still look great. They also have a hard toe area, similar to a steel toe shoe but not that tough. I ordered 7 1/2 & lots of room. I usually use shoes between 7-8.These are beautiful shoes/boots, and well-made, like other Born products. The "prugna distressed" color is very pretty and unusual in person, sort of a burgundy and black, perfect for fall. I like this heel size too. Unfortunately, I had to return them as they were too large in length and Amazon did not have the next smaller size in stock.I was sceptical about the color but for the price of $59.99 I couldn’t go wrong. They are super comfortable and I absolutely love the color. They are exactly like advertised ♥️I love these boots. They ran slightly large for my narrow foot but still wearable.I expected them to be more purple. Not as interesting as I had hoped. Returned.Don't like the side zipper. Makes the boot stiff
