These boots are so cute! I sized up because I have big calves and got size 10 (I'm a size 9) and they were slightly big so stay true to size! My calves are 14" and they fit comfortably (was slightly loose even).

However, my boots had a manufacturing error on the right boot. There was a bulge in the back calf area on only one boot but not too noticeable. The right boot was also bigger in the calf area. Unsure if this happened for all boots or just mine.

The last picture shoes the difference between these boots and the shaker 65s. These shoes go higher up the calf:)
