Okay, so I finally caved and bought these LONDON FOG Irie boots after stalking them online for weeks. Here’s the real tea ☕️.

First off, the fit? *Chef’s kiss* 👌. My calves are 15.5" and the regular width fits like they were made for me. No awkward squeezing, and the side zipper is there but honestly, I just slip them on like butter. The 1.25" heel is a sneaky win—comfy but still gives a little lift.

BUT. The faux leather? Meh. It’s giving ‘plastic chic’ . If you’re a leather snob (guilty), you’ll notice the difference immediately. Also, they run *hot*. Like, ‘my-feet-are-in-a-sauna’ hot. Great for winter, tragic for fall.

Quality roulette alert 🎲: Some reviewers got flimsy zippers or missing buttons (yikes), but mine held up fine. The price reflects the material—don’t expect $300 boot vibes.

Verdict? Solid 7/10. Cute, comfy, but with quirks. Would I repurchase? Maybe on sale. Would I wear them all season? Absolutely.
