I liked these boots very much, they look like the old motorcycle boot, only in suede, I ordered the 81/2, in black that is what I wear, they was a little narrow, but maybe they will stretch, after I wear them a while, I wanted the purple, but they was out of that color, so I ordered another pair in the gray in 81/2 and it was too tight, so I sent them back, I don't know why they was any different than the black ones I first got, maybe someone had tried them on and stretched the first pair then sent them back, I hope they get them back in before winter is over, the purple that is. I love the looks of these boots, but they need to make a wider width in them, and bring back more colors.
