text: I was hoping to wear these to work (I'm a designer - we wear boots), but the leather looks like rubber, and as such, these look like rain boots. The calves are child-size around (I have small calves and when these are zipped up, they're so tight it hurts). They scrunch weird at the ankle. They're overpriced for what they are. They came in a generic box with no packaging around them (Nine West clearly had nothing to do with the packaging). I wish I could return them, but I waited too long, so now I have $80 boots in my house that have never been worn and never will be worn. I don't think these are actually Nine West boots because they look SO much cheaper than anything else I've ever bought from Nine West. I'm terribly disappointed, and I'll never buy from this seller again.
