text: I love Cobb Hill.  I was looking for a tall “go to” boot for fall.  Something casual, slightly rugged, but cute enough to wear with a skirt.  The Britney fits the bill.<br /><br />I’m 5’6” and the shaft hits my leg in the perfect spot.  I typically wear a 9 Wide in Cobb Hill, but wide was not available.  Since I cannot tolerate ANY foot discomfort, I hesitated about ordering a 9 medium, but it fits great!  The medium accommodates a thin sock very nicely.  I’m not sure how comfortable they would be with a thick, winter sock.  There is enough room to tuck in skinny jeans.<br /><br />The color in the picture is different in person.  Online, they appear bright…like a milk chocolatey, light brown.  In person they are darker (see pic).<br /><br />Another reviewer mentioned the material scratches easily.  That’s my pet peeve with all leather boots.  There’s nothing like a big ole scratch on a nice leather that sends me into a tailspin.  These are different.  They’re not a traditional suede, but not a smooth leather.  While reviewing, I noticed a couple scratches on mine (most likely from pulling them on and off).  They simply lend to the overall character of the boot.<br /><br />I’ve only worn these a handful of times, so I can’t comment on the durability.  However, they ARE comfortable, versatile and adorable.  I really love these boots.<br /><br />If you’re on the fence, just buy them.  I thought I got a great deal when they were marked down to $84, but I just saw them listed for $67.  You just can’t beat Amazon’s pricing!
