I fell in love with these boots online but am pretty disappointed with the reality.  The leather is really firm and while it's alright but it could definitely be of better quality.  Additionally, one of the chains snapped literally the first time I tried on the boot. It wasn't under any particular stress, it just fell apart. Looks like one of the links was super loose.  Also, I'm consistently the same size across various brands, but these were definitely snug.  Had the chain not broken, and had the leather been nicer and more supple I would have just sucked it up but I'd definitely size up if I ordered this brand again (The width was fine, it was the length that was an issue. The toe box wasn't crowded yet somehow the heel felt as if it was completely the wrong shape.).  I wish I liked them better because they're absolutely beautiful online and I love the chain detail, but the reality was a definite let down...
