"I have size 11M ouchy feet and a wide calf, not the most available boot combo size to find in store anywhere. I am used to ordering boots on line. While taking back two ill-fitting pairs ordered, I came upon these in the store in my size. What a magical moment when the boot zipped and felt like it was already broken in! Gorgeous leather, great style, very equestrian detail. And the elastic insert is not an ugly hunk of stretch but integrated to look like a tuxedo stripe. They are also appropriately proportioned, another challenge in size 11. I will definitely keep this brand in mind when looking for other shoes and boots."
