GREAT!,

At first, I left a review here saying that the shoes run too small and seemed flimsy. I have worn them often since then with thinner socks and have not had a problem.
I dare say I love these shoes. They may be my favorite pair of all the shoes I've ever purchased. They are comfortable to walk in, even for long distances (which means a lot for me, someone with very high arches! I didn't even have to put a support pad in these).

Snazzy Steampunk Boots,
November 24, 2008 Traevynn "Herban Goddess" (Seattle, WA USA) - See all my reviews
Your Granny never wore boots like these but if she did, the 1900's might have been a little wilder! They work great for costuming in Steampunk-style and any outfit that requires a neo-Victorian look. Comfortable for walking short distances and standing for a couple of hours. Not the most well-made of boots but certainly able to hold up for a while. I wear a size 9 1/2 but ordered the 10 and was glad I did so. Pair the boots with a bright colored pair of tights so the lace on the side of the boot stands out.

I really like these shoes, I've only worn them once so far, but they look a lot better with long pants and jeans than with a skirt or dress. My friends say they make me look like a female Elvis, but I was inspired by Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman =P
