I love these boots to death but they have no place in my closet, and I have to let them go because I’m raising money for my grad school tuition. I wore them once for a birthday. The leather is SO thick and supple and smooth. They are expensive looking and feeling, and the leather quality is like night and day compared to my more practical pair of Schutz Mikki stiletto boots I got for$258. Those are smooth but the leather is so thin it’s floppy and somewhat flares/slouches on my narrow calves and ankles. The Stuarts stand up and keep their shape perfectly, which is exactly what I was looking for in a chic boot as a petite woman. For reference I am 5’1 100lbs. Because of their structure they look sleek up and down. You can see how @anastasiasouris styles hers as a slim petite woman, I was #influenced I usually wear a 6.5/7 and these were great for a little extra winter sock room. If I had very narrow feet perhaps the 7 would’ve been a touch big/true to size Mid calf shaft circumference 14” Heel 4” Shaft height 14.4” Wear as depicted — I walked across West Village cobblestone in Manhattan to get to the birthday dinner, so it is consistent with actual street wear Hits at knee for petite women, not crazy tall!
