Are the Myla boots warm enough for real winter?

Yes. The shaft and foot are lined in shearling, and the brand markets them for cold-weather wear. They suit dry cold and city winters better than deep snow or slush.

How tall is the heel?

The heel is 1.9 inches, a flat block style. That keeps them comfortable for walking while adding a little lift.

Do they run true to size?

Stuart Weitzman boots generally run true to size, but the shearling lining adds bulk. If you are between sizes or have a wide calf, try the larger size or check the shaft measurements.

Can I wear them in rain or snow?

The lug sole gives traction, but the upper is suede, which stains in wet conditions. Treat the suede with a protector and avoid deep slush and road salt.

How do I put them on?

A side zipper runs up the shaft, so you zip them on rather than pulling them over the calf. That makes knee-high boots much easier to wear.

When is the best time to buy them?

Knee-high shearling boots usually see the deepest discounts at the end of winter and during seasonal sales. Check the price history before buying to see whether the current price is near its low.
