"Although I chose "Runs Narrow" in this review, it is a good thing considering that I have small, narrow feet. I love the cushioned support inside the boot and the chunky, tractioned soles. I am a short woman, which has made the recent trend of high-shaft boots very difficult (and sometimes unrealistic) for me, but these are a "high-shaft" boot that is a very comfortable height for my shortness. The shaft even runs a bit smaller than most tall boots I've found, even if there still is a bit of a gap around the calf. It's even difficult to tell that it is made of textile material, which is awesome - from a distance, you'd think that they were a type of textured leather. I would highly recommend these boots."
