Beautifully Groovy!
These boots are exactly what I had hoped for! I usually wear a size 9, but ordered a 10, which was a more comfortable fit for me as I have a wider foot. They are roomy in the toes, but not too loose at the heel. I'm 5'7, 160#, with what I consider average size calves. The boots fit snug in the calves, but I was able to zip them up without struggling. Best of all, I ordered the patent white, and they are super shiny! The cut of the boot with the squared toes and the flared style of the heel was the selling point for me. The quality is great and they don't look like costume boots. They arrived before the estimated date and were packaged beautifully in a groovy box. Each boot was individually packaged in its own black bag, which I'll store them in. I haven't worn them out yet, but I can imagine that they will scuff easily, so I'm only going to wear them when I know I'll primarily be inside.I would DEFINITELY buy these again!

Great costume boots. I may wear them out later also.
Perfect boots for the Matrix Trinity costume. Also the boots look great and are flattering. My calves are smallish and most boots have a gap at the top, but these are snug and fit perfectly, which I like. The shine is a bit much for the office, but I will probably wear them when I go out. They are easy to walk in, although don't expect high quality support, and I wouldn't use them on a hike.

These are amazing!
I bought these boots as an addition to a Halloween costume. I am usually a size 9 in a boot and ordered a 9 ...They fit perfectly. They came packaged very well and had no marks on them at all. Plenty of room in the toe and fit around my calf like a glove. I have a 14 1/2 inch calf and had no problem zipping them up. I would say if you have a larger than a 15 inch calf they may be tight. They are very comfortable all the way around. I haven't worn them for an extended amount of time so I can't say what the comfort level would be after hours of wearing them...but overall I am very pleased and would definitely recommend these boots! A+++

A great looking, and durable boot for Batgirl!
These are for my wife, she wears them for her Batgirl costume. She's had two pair thus far, but the first pair were very durable surprisingly enough. They held up for about a year, wearing them 2 times a month on average for charity events. Sometimes for an hour, sometimes for 4 or 5 hours. They held up pretty well, they did get dinks, scuffs, and wear as they got more wear, but they held up about 9 months before a heel plate cracked through while walking on rocks, she continued to wear them with no heel pad and they were fine, until a about 2 months after that the shoe started pulling away from the sole on the front and side of one of the boots. So overall, for the price these boots are actually really long lasting for the amount of use and punishment they went through.She did mention that the size of the foot was a touch small, she has wider feet so them being a little smaller was noticeable, and she mentioned that the calves are narrow. She went a size bigger then she originally ordered because the calf fit better. There is a little stretch to the material but not a ton. She also noticed, because we had to do some returning to get a correct size she could wear regularly and comfortably, but she mentioned one pair pinched her big toe on just one foot when she walked, we exchanged that pair for a new pair of the same size and color and she no longer had that problem, so if you run into that issue, I would say return them and get another pair, not all pairs seem to be created equal. Some may have some small defect/fitting issues. So try again, if one size is too small or pinches a bit in the toe.Overall, I'm impressed with how these hold up, especially for the money. They look great and according to my wife they are fairly comfortable, but if you get a size slightly bigger then normal you can add a shoe support pad and they are even better as far as comfort.

Super comfortable!
These boots make my Sailor Murcury cosplay complete! They fit perfectly. I usually wear 9.5 in women's. I ordered size 10 and they are perfect. The material is slightly stretchable, so I was able to zip them up over my calves. The superhero vibes are immaculate.

Ouch at the calf! Get the Ellie brand
I read all the reviews and dutifully measured my calves to see if these would fit. The company says that the calf size is 13". My calves are exactly 13" and, while these DID fit my calves, they were just too tight to be really comfortable. I am returning them in exchange for the "Ellie' brand which are said to be wider in the calves. Other than that, the boots were good. I am sometimes a 7 1/2 and sometimes an 8 so I opted for the size 8 but still had plenty of room. No scuffing on the heels or soles as other have mentioned but there was one black horizontal mark across the back of one boot--almost looked like a heavy pen mark. This would not have bothered me in any way since these boots are of a costume party. My calves are in no way muscular and I have NEVER had a problem with any boot fitting my calves so do beware of this sizing issue before you buy.UPDATE: I ended up getting the Ellie brand of Go-Go boots. I did not get them on Amazon because the ones listed as Ellie were ALSO listed as an unknown brand and I wanted to be sure. The calf size for the Ellie is larger. They fit very comfortably--I was able to get all my fingers inside the boot at the calf but the boot does not slouch. The Ellie boots appear to be true to size. I wear a 7 1/2 or an 8. The 8 fit well with some extra room.
