I just bought the ones from Flattered (top photo) that are very similar to The Row. Only problem is they squeeze at the top of the zipper. I'm sending back the Flattered ones but was wondering how The Row fit? Anyone know? TIA!!

I have only just purchased and received these today! I would generally say they fit true to size, maybe half a size large. I am a AU/US 6.5, and I got these in EU 37, which actually fit perfectly for me because I like to always add an arch support sole into my boots so it is a perfect snug fit with thin socks on. If I wasn’t using the sole, I would’ve sent these back and instead bought the EU 36 or 36.5. They are definitely quite snug around the ankle and lower calf. When wearing them out for the first time, you will notice them cutting into the front of your shin, but just 10min later the leather starts to soften and it isn’t so noticeable.

They’re beautiful boots! The slim fit around the ankle actually perfectly balances out the chunky look of the actual boot. I am quite slim and petite and usually chunky boots (eg the Bottega lug boots) make me look like I’m playing dress up in clown shoes - but these actually look quite balanced on me, which is a feat!

Purchased and I LOVE them. At first the zipper is tight around your ankle, but it softens and loosens even within a few minutes. I'm obsessed with the shoe. They're heavy but very comfortable if that makes sense. My other boots that are heavy are not comfortable, but these very much are. They make me feel so cool whenever I wear them!
