These are fantastic sandals (boot). They have a zip back and 3 sets of buckles on the side so you can tighten or loosen them. They're different shades of brown. I literally wore them one time. I have some issues going on with my legs and can not wear heels anymore. My loss is your gain. I am normally a 9 and a 1/2. These are a nine because they said they ran kind of big and they fit me perfect
