This is my second pair. I am so glad you came out with the wine color. These boots will coordinate with many things in my wardrobe. I cannot wear them on a cold day.
I love these boots. Had them several years ago and am excited to have this new pair (in Black Cherry!). I ordered my reg shoe size 9, although I usually order a 10 in boots, I've found that the shearling compresses with wear, so the 9 is perfect for me. Very warm, without being too hot, and comfy. Not a fan of skinny jeans, my straight legs and boot cuts go over them with ease. I have discovered that I cannot walk all day in them though as there is really no support. That said, I am considering getting another pair so I never have to be without them! Highly recommend...just don't plan on a whole day of shopping or standing on your feet for hours (gave me a backache...but then again, I'm *over 50*, young-uns prob would fare better). Buy them before they sell out!
My feet are always cold in my old drafty house. The llbean slippers fell apart in two years. I hoped these longer boots would keep my feet warm without legwarmers or heavy socks for a few years. These are definitely not outside boots. They would not survive a puddle or a slip. They are loose on the outside and sag because of the thick lining, and for those with wide feet, one's foot hangs over until the seam splits. They are warm.
These boots are so soft and warm! I actually look forward to cold days where I can wear these. Well made, so I know they will last much more than one season.
