Great boots, great price on an Amazon deal! I have a black pair, as well and they also fit a bit large - enough for an insole and heavy socks for Canadian winters, so that is no problem. But this brown pair has rubbed the back of my foot, above the ankle. Maybe it is just a case of breaking them in, but for now I must wear a blister bandage. Lovely looking boots though, and heavy enough to help build up my leg muscles?
