Somebody must have bought a pair of these other than me, but no one has reviewed them yet, so I will. I loved them in the pic, and I loved them in front of me. Problem is, I couldn't get them on while wearing socks (the shaft, not the foot), and I couldn't get them off without help. I'm too old to go through all that. And at their price point, though probably well worth it, they're too expensive to sit in the closet. The colors, the workmanship, the ruggedness and the foot-fit were second to none, but I had to return them, much to my chagrin. Don't be disuaded by my silliness... give them a chance. If you are inclined to love the look and the pic and you have time to break them in to a smooth pull-on, you'll have a boot no one else has. Gorgeous! True story. I hated to part with them, but I just had to.
