"Returned these after trying on the Blondo Torida style, which felt less stiff and are warmer for cold Chicago winters (wool lining). These are very stylish and I loved the swivel design, but a bit too stiff for me. I'm assuming that after breaking these in, they will be as comfy at the Toridas. Good for fall/winter and waterproof. Would recommend them!"
"This is a great boot, I ordered 2 other Blondo styles and this is definitely a winner. Very comfortable and warm (wool lining) for cold Chicago winters. Waterproof too! They are snug on the calf (I have average to muscular calves) which I like (not a fan of loose boots). They go perfectly with leggings, skinny pants, etc. I wear them to the office and casually. Awesome boots!"
