Naturalizer Women's Barstowe Knee-High Boot

I couldn't be happier with the boots themselves; they're true to size, won't kill your feet, and are definitely leather despite other reviews that I've seen to the contrary - not sure how or why folks have said that, but mine are definitely leather. The D-ring and pleat are lovely complements to their overall appearance - dress them up or dress them down, they look great with a sweater dress & tights, or under boot cut jeans, or with a tunic & leggings. Once you receive your correct size, all's well, but here's where it gets tricky... apparently Naturalizers' standards for both size and shaft vary greatly - I tried another pair of Naturalizer boots on in a department store, a half size down my normal size, and there was room to spare in the toe... and the regular shaft (calf circumference) was perfect(read to the end of the review, however).

Be careful about ordering these boots! I noticed that someone who recently posted a review said she wanted the wide calf version of the boot and got the regular. I ordered these boots from this web page because I wanted regular calf-sized boots and did not see "wide calf" anywhere in the description. I just got a pair of wide calf boots that are way too big! I would call Amazon to clarify what size you are ordering before you do!

I was very please with these boots. The leather is good quality and the color is a beautiful, dark, rich brown. The detail on the side is great and the heel is thick enough to where you won't be in pain. They are also very comfortable and fit true to size. One thing though, I had to buy the wide ones, which I have never had to do before. I've never had a problem with my calves and boots before and I had to go wide on these. The regular were just a little too tight and the wides are definitely a little big (there is a gap between my leg and the boot at the top) but it looks ok that way.
I definitely recommend these boots.
