I ordered these boots, as my first attempt was a complete letdown with cheap PVC boots. And these boots are really great! You see first very chic, this could even take on the road everyday. Then the leather is a very short gestation period on softer and pushes nothing on foot. One can even go so;) The processing is despite the price very very good, no odd edges, no crooked seams, everything looks solid and sturdy. I have in my normal shoe size purchased and because they fit perfectly, with a bit of force to get even purely with thicker socks - and I believe that is that when I have worn them a few times (which is handy fürn Winter) , The shaft is of course mean really thin calves still too far, but I have far not so much game as in other riding boots - I also believe that there is no boot for my calves;) Since the calf part but is elastic and with a Velcro regulate, it does not matter from! I'll slip while riding in these boots not guaranteed. PVC boots often stink horribly by rubber which here has a subtle smell of leather. Inside it is equipped with a light textile lining that neither scrubs still scratching. The sole has not expected a decent profile slide, you order. Very practical is the zipper, so you quickly get and pure. By and large, you get here for less than 100 a leather boot, which makes a good impression!
