"I wanted the studded boots by the brand Ash for so long but I was not willing to drop 400 bucks on them. There are many brands that try to make them but do not use real leather or the studs look tacky. I found these and I was glued to the screen. I am normally a 7 1/2 in shoes and an 8 in heels so I thought I would be a size 8. I was swimming in a size 8 so I exchanged them for a 7 1/2 and they fit perfectly now! They are very strong and sturdy, wear them after 2 days and they start to break in. I love them! I get so many compliments! and its all leather!"
