I have larger calfs so at first i was worried, because in my past expeirence with Demonia they havent fit properly even with buckles. But my boots arrived within a week, and i was able to put them on right away!!! I have had them for about a month now, and i LOVE them! I wear them almost everyday, and even though the Wave 302 boots are more comfy, i got used to these, and can spend the whole day at school with no issues. The buckles adjust well, and even though they will get scruffed up, they still look amazing!
