I really wanted these boots after seeing a random girl on the streets wearing them, and then seeing my coworker a few days later with the same boots! They both bought the cognac color, which is the color I bought, and the boots are very comfortable, true to size, and super cute and stylish! The only reason I gave these boots four stars instead of five is because of the quality of the leather. The leather is rather thin and stiff/crumbly like brown packaging paper, not smooth and buttery. But what did you expect for the price? I would not pay more than $120 for these. In fact, I'd say these boots are really worth about $80 max. I only bought these and ignored the quality because the style is too adorable. I haven't seen the boots in black but my advice when buying boots with average-poor quality leather is to not buy black. It's much easier (in my opinion) to tell good quality leather from bad quality when it's black leather. Brown is a more casual look and more forgiving to scratches and inconsistencies. Oh yeah, I bought these in size 7 and they fit true to size.
