"This is the most comfortable boot i ever own, I love it. It's a must have pair of boots. The leather is great and it goes well with everything i wear."

Too Tall
"I absolutely adored these....but for a shortie like me at 5'4", the boots were awkwardly too tall. They are beautiful shoes."

"Love these boots, except it's hard to get on in the heel portion.... The circumference of the boot is fine, but the ankle is kind of tight. Otherwise, great quality!"

They do bunch up a little
"I picked up the brown color today on sale. I love them! I'm 5'2 and have small feet and slightly thicker calves so finding a boot that fits and flatters is almost impossible, but these pull it off. There's even enough room to wear jeans (as opposed to tights or leggings). So glad I found these! I think for someone with normal proportions they might be too roomy in the calves, however the feet and ankles are a good fit. The heels pinch a little but I'm sure this will loosen when I wear them in the fall."

Good Basic
"I wanted a pair of casual black boots that had a motorcycle vibe but that weren't too scary. I like these boots but they feel a little more structured than what I intended. I think they will soften up with time though and they are beautiful. I am definitely keeping them and they are a practical and good boot to have. Also, they do run a little narrow in the foot and ankle. I have borderline cankles and a wider foot and it did feel just a tad snug...just fyi. But overall I'm happy."

Comfortable Boot
"I have to admit, I love these boots! I have thick calves so finding a boot that fits them is some what of a challenge. These boots have an adjustable band at the top to tailor your fit. The more I wear them, the more comfortable the have become. I'm a fan!"

simple casual perfect
"These boots are perfect for casual dresses and jeggings. I'm a solid 8.5 and own another pair of Matisse boots, this style runs short. The height of the boot is rather tall, just below my knee. Had to return because too small and out of size 9 in black."
"I found these at a local DSW which was on huge sale, 30% off. I love the tan color. It doesn't have any zipper or buckle, so simple and comfortable for all day wear. The only issue was slightly different shade which isn't that noticeable. That's why only 4 stars."

To Die For.
"The camel color is the best neutral color I have found, not too dark and matches everything. This boot is the best investment I've made all year, and I think I'm going to get another pair to have a backup when I wear these out. They are really that incredible."

Nice boots
"I like the sleek, uncluttered look of this boot. Slightly dressy so can be worn with anything. The quality of the materials used in the construction of the boot seem above average.
It's a pull-on with no zipper. Getting them on is no problem. Getting them off requires a bit of hard tug.
The boots seem to run mostly true to size, but do seem a little on the narrow side. If worn with hose or thin socks, this is not an issue. I am a bit concerned though if I want to wear thicker socks in colder weather. I'm hoping that they will stretch a little during the break in process."

Great for athletic legs
"I was so excited about these boots. They are on trend, yet classic. I was sure I would get my money's worth out of these. I am 5'1" and have thin calves. The top of the boot was way too "roomy" and they slouched toward the ankle (in an unflattering way). They seemed snug on the heel and roomy at the toe. Great for someome with long and shapley legs. I exchanged them. I still love DSW :)."
