I ordered 2 pairs of these boots one black the other brown during the holidays. I did not have a computer available when I ordered them so I couldn't read the reviews. When I finally was able to read the reviews I felt like maybe I may have made a mistake. But when I got them I knew it was no mistake. They are BEAUTIFUL, comfortable and very easy, at least for me, to get on/off. I wear them with very thin socks and I don't have long nails, maybe that's the secret. Anyway, I LOVE THESE BOOTS.
