After purchasing the black and brown full length Quebec boots last year I thought I would try the ankle boots in Bordeaux .i purchased the seconds but honestly they are brilliant ,creasing is unnoticeable .lovely colour and fit .i wear a 6 and purchase a 6.They are a snug fit across the top of my foot when originally purchased ( with the insole in )but this can be removed if required and then replaced once the beautiful leather has softened,which doesn't take long .This my 3rd pair of Quebec boots and I love them.The full length boots were very useful in the recent snow ,I didn't slip once ,whereas my wellingtons were too slippy in the conditions . Easy to order ,quick delivery and useful telephone advice given last about fit and removing the padded insole if required .
