have already guessed before I order the boots of will be too far up the shaft as I had read the other reviews. But still wanted to try my luck, I find this very beautiful boots. For women have thin legs it's too far. Tried it with cuffs, then it went reasonably. Like all shoes by Tamaris, and this shoe is very very convenient, it does not express, you just feel very comfortable. I'm just so already thinking if I should just keep it anyway or not .. A little too far but very comfortable :)
