Received these boots in purple as a birthday gift from my thoughtful husband. Slipped them on and thought &#34;Ahhhhh!&#34;. So comfy. The slanted zipper on the inner side makes putting them on and off a breeze. Love the laces, which fine tune the fit for great ankle support. Roomy toe box, sturdy sole and heel. Snappy styling. And the purple! It's just right--dark enough to not be flashy, but purpley enough to make me sit there for way too long with a foolish grin on my face thinking, &#34; I have PURPLE boots!&#34;. Love, love, love these.
