These are such awesome boots! Unfortunately they do not fit me, so my loss is your gain! I have very narrow feet and they just were to large around the top of my foot. I added a soft tongue pad in an effort to thicken them, but to no avail. I am leaving them because they are super soft and make the shoe more comfortable where the laces hit over your bone. If you don't want them, you can easily remove them. :) I purchased them here and haven't even worn them. So enjoy ! they are a black and silver-purple crackle that is just super neat and if turned the right way in the light, they sparkle rainbow colors! Pretty shimmer to them :) price has more wiggle room on a different platform that starts with M
