Runs pretty short; most people bump up a 1/2 size. The calf runs mostly true to narrow.

Love the boots, HOWEVER...
HOWEVER, the 2nd pair I received had some glue around the seam of the sole and toe box on one of the boots- I had to take a razor blade to remove it! I debated about contacting the store with my issue, but decided to bit the bullet and take care of it myself (I didn't want to end up in situation where 9s were sold out or the whole hassle of dealing with this further). Bad quality control on Fluevog's part and BIG disappointment for $400 boots. The first pair I got didn't have this issue at all. My second issue is that the green has already scuffed from wearing them one night- I'm going to have to be super careful when wearing them as they easily scuff leaving white spots- also big disappointment for $400 boots.
Overall, super cute and comfy (I've been the hunt for a good "slouchy" boot forever since I wore out my last favorite pair 10 years ago), and I love the subtle dark green color. However, the quality control and so easily scuffed leaves me regretful I paid so much- especially now that they've been further reduced in price.
LOVE
I have these in red (burgundy) and can’t get enough!
I live in the Northwest Territories and our winters are pretty brutal, so, I generally take these to work with me so I don’t ruin them.
Ps... I’m buying these in black next!
My girls in the Edmonton store know I can’t resist!
Fluevog Kanawa rocks!
I am in love.
Disappointing sole
There is hope for zaftig calves!
These are PERFECT!
Gorgeous boots! (Not as green as the picture)
Great boots.
In Love!
Best Boots EVER
First pair!
Ah-mazing in EVERY way!
Ryan in Denver was extremely helpful and informative regarding the ability to heat up the soles on a cold day, and took them away for their first spray down of the All Protector Spray. I probably even terrified him a little for my level of enthusiasm, excitement and love of these boots.
postman will always be ringing!
I just needed black boots. But as soon as I took them out of the box-- another precisely crafted work of art.
These are small creative pieces, all of them.
And Feather, once again had them shipped in a day. Ever helpful as always, she should be made creative director but then you would lose a fantastic sales representative!

Thanks again!
Looking forward to those red Bartolis next month!
First sight!
Wish there is more size 5 in the Boston location!
However, I happened to try this boot size 5 and it was perfect! Tad tight on the calf since needs some breaking down. I already asked Fluevog to stretch it for me. Maybe need to go back again? Other than that, it is soo comfortable! Then I should be able to tuck jeans underneath the boots! Can't wait for that.
These boots made my day!
Best boots ever
Beautiful!
They're still on my feet
LOVE THEM!!!
how high
you can't but love them....
they are just the perfect boots (except for that very-true get-a-half-size-up thing). you seriously will not want to take them off.
Just had to have them!
Do not doubt these boots...they will not disappoint.
Perfect boots!
Perfect!
Run very small
best boots in the world.
Love, love my new boots!
Amazing Service, Amazing Boots!
Once the boots arrived, I was in love. They're just as lovely as they are on the site, and the leather is gorgeous. On Alan's recommendation, I got a 7 instead of my usual 6.5, which was the right call. I have 14.5-inch calves, so the boots *just* zip. Because the leather is so supple, the shaft wasn't uncomfortable, though.
Bottom line: these boots are gorgeous and you should buy them.
Great boots
Wore them out of the store
They were really not what I had been looking for, (was thinking tall lace-ups but don't have the patience after all!) and once my foot got in there that was it. They look amazing with absolutely everything, the leather was supple and didn't require any breaking in, and they are incredibly comfortable (hard to find shoes for this high-arched girl). Very, very pleased.
Gloves for feet!
