"These boots are absolutely gorgeous, the only problem that I had with these boots though, is that the calves and ankles are disproportionate and huge! I will either have to have these boots altered, or I will have to return them. It looks like it's going to cost me about $90 to get them altered, but I think it will be worth it as these boots are very well-made and the leather is beautiful. Overall, I would suggest these to a friend on the grounds that they wouldn't mind taking them to a shoemaker to get them taken in."
